Welcome to TheSimpsons, a community for discussing everything related to America's non-prehistoric cartoon family, The Simpsons!

Right about now, you're probably saying, "Troy, basically every post starts with 'Guess the Episode', is that all this community is?"

To which I say you've got some attitude, mister.

But no, any Simpsons content is allowed in this community, although we do ask that you keep the shitposting over in !simpsonsshitposting@sh.itjust.works.

Guess the Episode "Rules"

These "Rules" aren't real, so if you think of something clever, do that instead.

Haven't watched regularly in years, so I'm unsure how prevalent Milhouse has been in recent seasons.

Still seemed sad.

Milhouse isn't retiring, lol, the actress that voices his is, they're gonna recast for the Milhouse voice. Lady made 25 million dollars voicing Simpsons characters in the last 35 years, she's done fine she's old now, and want to do other things

It is sad to me. The Simpsons is never going to get a definitive, dignified ending where it goes out on a high. It is just going to keep going on and on, slowly losing original bits and pieces. Swapping out a long time voice actor because the show has been going on so long that they aged out and retired is pretty depressing.

Eh, I still enjoy it, although I do find it amusing how the family becomes more and more anachronistic and how they have to keep changing the decades flashbacks occur in as the show ages.

In the 90s, they did a flashback, and Homer/Marge were in high school inthe 1970s.

Now didn't they do one where they were in high school in like 2005?

Funnily enough, there’s an old episode that shows a class reunion in 2024 where Marge and Homer are really old.
