Nonsense. People of all ages can watch and enjoy the Simpsons. Quoting it, however, is a gift.

I just havent found anything really funny about watching a cartoon that is on during the prime time shows .

I just havent found anything really funny  about  watching a cartoon that is on during the prime time  shows .

have you ever given one a chance. I'm not saying all cartoons are great, but the simpsons is very clever and way funnier and entertaining than 95% of prime time comedy shows that are out now. If you combined Taxi, Seinfield, the simpsons, Cheers, and 3d: accepting your gay self, you would have the funniest fall lineup of all time.

dude, did you ever watch the facts of life? it was hysterical... they were like "these are the facts"... but they were CLEARLY opinions

oh, and full house was pretty funny too... i mean, not because there were jokes or anything... but b/c you got to see what the olson twins looked like before they became cokeheads... oh yeah, and you can see what uncle jessie was like before rebecca romjin figured out she was a supermodel and he was uncle jessie

Cheers is about so much more. The talking and situations are what is funny, the bar setting is just the vehicle to get to the funny stuff. What better setting than a bar to give you the opportunity to have a show lead anywhere??

Taxi was a great show in its time. Granted I was a youngster then, but I remember laughing my ass off. Watching it now is funny, but I can see where it might seem boring to some people because it's an older style show.

Seinfeld is excellent!!! Having not been into that or even seen a show like Seinfled, it seems you're not into original situation comedy. And that's fine. It explains why you would find a show like the simpsons not that funny. But I will say that your sense of humor does need a bit of a boost.

I always wondered something. When they all went to some event together who the fuck was watching the bar???

Dude, I had a crush on the Olsen twins before they were famous!!

That could have been put a lot more crudely. Way to take the high road...well sort of.

I don't watch much TV either... especially sit coms, so I know where you're coming from. I'm more of a movie fan. You mention some great shows. Simpsons is just one that I like because I can relate to a lot of it... most people can, no matter their situation. I'll expound on that in a second. Other shows are all about driving a funny plot (or what they think is a funny plot). The simpsons has plot drivers, but they also usually have a B story and some great sight gags and current event digs... something most shows cannot afford because they are not animated.

Your wife is making a mistake by forbidding the kids to watch the Simpsons. Now if she's just saying no TV, then that's one thing. But the simpsons is not immoral... in fact it's more moral than most programs on TV these days. It encourages religion, culture, and respect for all men and women of all ages and capacities.

Bobaloo expounding: During the commentary for (i think) Streetcar named Marge, one of the commentators mentioned that he was watching an episode with his in-laws, his wife, and his children. there wre three generations wathcing the show and all were lauging. The interesting thing is that they all laughed usually at different parts. The point is, all three age brackets were able to relate to the show in their own way. It's a successful show because of it's fortunate ability to reach such a wide audience.

Okay. I'm done now. Two more sentences and this post will be too long for even bondi and Gnappy to read

fair enough I may have to take the time to watch it sometime , movies I can watch over and over , i really like the old red dawn , and varsity blues to start with , there are many but to name a couple

both good movies. For some reason I really like varsity blues. Must have something to do with the hot broads. Something about whipped cream bikinis and stripper teachers really does it for me. totally even makes you forget that pansy assed Dawson is starring in it.

My wife always says she doesn't want to watch simpsons, yet every time she watches she laughs her ass off too.

well the stripper teacher ROCKS , but I can relate to the story of the underdog now being in the star quarter back position , our hometown football coach is the same way . WIN at all costs .

Must be true. I hear the Bradley football team is still undefeated!!!

Agreed! Simpsons started its first season, maybe also season 2 as a kids show but it has evolved and the sattire, the comedy the derive from current events is unmatched. In years from now, TV history will be talking about the Simpsons as the greatest ever television program!

Also Seinfeld is the greatest sitcom ever! If Seinfeld was never made there would have been no Friends, No Everybody Loves Raymond etc

umm, weren't they like 1 then? 
wow, and i thought bondi was the resident pedophile...

I remember as a kid, seeing Jerry Seinfeld on Letterman and thinking this is the funniest guy ever. Then he was on again and said he was coming out with a new sitcom, which I thought was the best idea ever and I watched it from the very begining. I always told people, ya gotta check this show out, it's great! And they would respond with a "Seinfeld, who the hell is Seinfel?" The first few seasons didn't even get that great of ratings. I think it wasn't until it went into syndication did the popularity of the new episodes skyrocket.
