Simpsons' Season 20 Coming Out Before 13-19 -- Why Bother?
I mean, I guess I can see why Fox would want to skip releasing the Simpsons' Seasons 13 through 19, as they were not much to write home about (or here either). But last season was a snoozefest and just lame for the most part. I am racking my brain trying to remember a funny moment, so I checked out a run-down of the season, and I audibly groaned while reading synopses for such unmemorable episodes like the one when a younger Ned and Maude try to keep Homer and Marge celibate before marriage (huh? -- exactly). Or that painful episode when Moe dates a little person and his shallowness ruins his last stab at happiness.
Why can't the writers leave the past alone?
In fact, as I read through the menu of the unwatchable, I realized that I didn't even bother to see most of the season, which normally would lead me to think that perhaps I should hold judgment until I do view said season, but even reading the tag lines bored me. More so, "The Four Great Women and a Manicure" episode actually made me angry.
Of course, the whole 20 thing is a theme this year as the Simpsons' celebrates 20 years on TV, which is no small feat. The logical question at this point is...is 20 years a little too long? Will the producers know when to say when. I used to dread the day that the Simpsons would cease to produce new episodes, but that was like, way back in 2001. Now, I hate to say it, but perhaps I would rather see the Simpsons' put out of its misery rather than continue to suck.
I'm just sayin' is all.
