Showrunner says it's because it takes up too much time of the episodes and is too expensive to animate.
sneedam i doing the meme right?
Sure
>>219857314Formerly wrong
from dead husk to faded illegible writing
You know they could save a lot more on animation by not making any more episodes
Tired "they're doing the thing!" bits is all the Simpsons has now though?
>>219857291Phase out this dead show while they're at it
>show with no soul loses the last bit of soul it didn't even know it had left
>>219857291>save money on animation At least make up something believable
>storytelling in season 300 of the Simpsonswhat stories are they even telling
>>219857291Can’t they teach all previous gags to an AI and then ask it to generate some new gag not used before?
>>219857408Pee-sney is never going to kill one of their most profitable franchises.

It was over 25 years ago
>>219857291Literally the only good thing about modern Simpsons
I saw a clip of a recent episode, I thought it was a shitty AI gen of a simpsons episode since everyone's voices sounded so off and it was so shit. But it was an actual episode.
>>219857291It's STILL going? Holy fuck I'm genuinely surprised
>>219857386*sensible chuckle*
>>219857291There hasn't been a couch 'gag' for a long time. They're all just references now. When I saw this post on twitter, it had a recent intro that was just the Simpsons as avatar things, it was pathetic. Not a joke to be found unless you're a redditfaggot that laughs at pure references.
>>219858727You would know if it had stopped. It would be big news all over the western world, maybe even the entire world.
>>219858653>season 13 was a quarter of a century ago
>>219857291kek, theyre squeezing in a commercial slot to increase revenue i bet
they should have just said they're too stupid to come up with new couch gags. that would be a lot more believable than "it costs too much and takes too much time away from the main story".
I literally cannot wait to see what they do once the voice actors actually start croaking
>>219857291I'm sure all twelve people who still watch the show will be devastated.
WHO THE FUCK STILL WATCHES ZOMBIE SIMPSONS
>>219857386It would be a net positive for almost everyone
>>219857408fr it's just embarrassing now
HAVE NO FEARS WE'VE GOT STORIES FOR YEARS
>>219857291>the team needs every second of airtime for the main plot>implying "lisa meets zendaya" or "homer takes estrogen" is such a complex plot that it could all fall apart without five seconds more of uncanny hand-waving animation and outdated pop culture references
where would I even have to go to watch modern simpsons today?I haven't had a live TV subscription in years where it would play at certain allotted timeslots of the day, nor does anyone I know still have one
>>219862251LIKE... MARGE BECOMES A ROBOT
>>219862312It's on Fox
>>219861468Autistic people who crave comfort. People who were watching the NFL and couldn't find the remote.Baby Boomers with early-onset dementia.Holy Trinity of keeping a show alive.
>>219857291>prioritize storytellingLolLmao even
>>219857291>make twelve minute long couch gags like the evolution one, the Rick and Morty one or the LAZ Rider one because you can't actually extend episodes to Golden Age time slot>NOOO GUYS NOW WE HAVE IDEAS FOR LONG ENOUGH STORIES AND PLOTS>cut away couch gags entirely because five fucking seconds of them and credits is too much for the new mythical stories>simpsons loses the last sovl it ever had to spend more time pandering to Elon Musk and Lady GagaIt's never been more d'ohver
>>219857291Could just admit they ran out of ideas.
>>219863308something about the soulless nu-simpsons art style makes me irrationally angry, especially when sitting next to that dank, sovlful early 90s style
