What would've happened if Mike Wegman was around when Frank Grimes was hired?
>>
>>153573927
3-8 is golden age
2-9 is classic era
1-12 is extended classic era
>>
Haven't watched the show in over a decade but surely there must be a few good ones here and there since.

Right?
>>
>>153574825
Short answer yes
Long answer no
>>
Series should have ended on Frank Grimes, there was nowhere left to go after that
>>
>>153574825
Really? A decade?
>>
>>153575219
Wrong.

What happened with 13?
>>
>>153580369
wasnt as good :-/
>>
>>153580369
Nothing specifically. Everyone knows (as evidenced by the need to create terms like "extended golden age") there wasn't any one season or episode where it turned to shit. It was a gradual process. It would make more sense to use the term silver age.

Season 12 had the last episode that received general critical praise - Trilogy of Error. Season 13 has no equivalent for that. Although I'd personally say the rest of season 12 was so shit that including it for a single episode is a bit of a reach.

Over 20 years for me

The Treehouse of Horror from two seasons ago had a really neat segment where Sideshow Bob kills Bart in Cape Feare and it changes the timeline.
It was sandwiched between a segment where "Bart gets uploaded to the blockchain" and one where Homer zombies turn everyone into Homer by belching.
I feel that's a pretty accurate metaphor for modern Simpsons.

>>153580369
I thought it was fine, 14 is considerably worse
>>
>>153574825
The general consensus is that if you took all the good episodes from about season 15 on and ran them back to back, you'd have about 1 season's worth of content. Keep in mind that the show is currently on season 37. So over the course of 23 seasons you have about 1 classic Simpson season's worth of good episodes. Not great, good.

>we're seeing in real-time Simpsons fans gradually inch closer and closer to saying "the show didn't get bad until Season 21"
