I really really like season 1 of The a Simpsons

Everyone does

it is difficult to watch, reminds me of a simpler time.

I just did a rewatch, I think I enjoyed it a lot more this time than previously. It helps when you think of it like "America was fucking sick of fluffy, overly nice sitcoms, having had a resurgence of them after a brief flirtation with actually solid issues in the 70s, so they did this show with silly, crummily-drawn cartoon people having real foibles and slightly criticizing the establishment". Like then it's adorable. Homer's trying so hard. Bart's so innocent. Lisa's surprisingly a little shit right from the start, two-faced, spiteful, sad about things no eight year old should be sad about, while also not even questioning the veracity of the information given her.

But most of the fun is just watching for silly animation goofs. For example, in "Bart Gets an F" you can tell at the very end, they had already animated the scene before remembering "oh right, snow day" and had to hastily repaint / paint over the background

I'm pretty sure Bart Gets an F was season 2 but that was still pretty rough
>>
>>153067552
oh right.
well, season 2 is season 1 the way that 1990 is the 80s..

..appropriately enough.

Homer passed out while he was loaded and fell on and crushed her saxophone?
>>
>>153067779
thank you, anon. where the fuck do these people come from?

also that would have been hilarious. Imagine the dents in his back from all the keys...

No not everyone. Some don't like how "melancholic" S1 Simpsons feels. They hadn't yet struck the right balance of humor and character drama.
>>
>>153068030
yeah but.. it's also really short.
if it had gone on for 26 episodes, just as maudlin, that would have been hard to swallow. not to mention if we'd gotten more of those ZANY klasky-csupo animated episodes, yeeeesh.

>>153066808
3 is better.

Better in what way(s)?

"The Call of the Simpsons" is awful, one of the worst episodes actually.
