Stuff like social media and smartphones feel really out of place in the show to me.

Even in the newer episodes where Bart and Lisa have somehow been kids since the '90s.

We need another Afghanistan to thin out their ranks a little.

I'm just realizing how enormous this guy's filmography is.

there's now an entire generation that grew up watching "The Simpsons" & has no idea who Troy McClure is.

Like Al Brooks, Hartman really added something special with his appearances. It's a shame he wasn't alive to be in movie as I'm sure the writers would have created a side character specifically for him.

The Simpsons decline coincidentally began at the same time of Phil Hartman's murder to.

To me the Simpsons without Phil Hartman is like Futurama without John DiMaggio*.

What could we even do to save it and make the show funny again? What do people really expect to see from a 2020s Simpsons episode now? How would you write it?

I don't think there is any saving it at this point. So I think they should completely sell out. Because the only "recent" episodes I tuned in for were the Family Guy and Lego crossovers. So have the Simpsons meet the Marvel Universe. Have the Simpsons Meet Mickey Mouse or Duckburg.

I'd also like to see them hand over entire episodes (not just couch gags) to guest animators and let them do whatever they want.

Ngl, that last idea could be interesting. An entire episode of The Simpsons written and animated by J.G Quintel and his team could have some potential.

Honestly an entire episode with this insane animation would be incredible, Xploshi’s adult swimification of mainstream cartoons is incredible. He’s created a new genre of cartoon parody, what would you even call This animation style?
