1. I stopped watching it
So I don't know if it's funny anymore. But the last season I watched was not at all good.

2. This one is worse
the best moment was a naked Chief Wiggum finding his old Walkman in the rolls of his fat

3. That's really hard to say...
On the one hand, yeah, it's kind of jumped the shark. On the other hand, it's still more amusing than a fair amount of the crap on television.

8. No, the worst season was season 14
The episodes have been getting better since Season 14 and tonight's episodes was quite funny IMO.

Of course nothing compares to The Simpsons episodes from Seasons 3-8, but I think The Simpsons is still one of the best comedies on television today.

9. To me the Simpsons are'nt funny
because of the episode it's self.

It becomes funny when I can relate the bits and pieces to my life. Sometimes re-runs are the best, because that is when they fit.

I have a great book called Philosophy And The Simpsons. Which was a serious look at the Simpsons. It all makes perfect sense.

10. Hell no! Tonight's episode was great!
By the way, I've been watching the Simpsons since the DAY it premiered. And I think tonight's episode was just as good as some of the classics! Only thing that's sadly missing is Lionel Hutz!
