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.

That's a lot of shading on those characters, has to be the movie.

Question. As a Simpsons fan who still wears an onion on his belt (because it will never go out of style), should I see the movie? I thought they jumped the shark well before then and said meh when it came out.

So, is it funny? Or it's still funny, but not 'haha' funny.

Greetings from the happiest place on earth, Tijuana.

I would say it is worth a watch. I enjoy watching it once every couple years.

I enjoy The Simpsons movie far more than the seasons of The Simpsons coming out at the time, but it is still not as good as the first 9 seasons. I enjoyed it well enough, despite its flaws, so I recommend it.

Nothing will ever compare to golden years of the Simpsons, the exact seasons of which vary from person to person, but probably top out around season 13 or so at the latest.

The seasons after that have good episodes, and they have not so good episodes, but even the not so good episodes have good moments.

For the movie they definitely put in the extra time and effort to make a great Simpsons movie. Is it going to be the same as the golden years, no, is it still going to be great, I think so.

I think it's worthwhile to see it. It does have a lot of good moments and references to earlier episodes that definitely felt like the writers had fans of the show in mind. However, it does feature jerkass Homer, so that is a big point against it. Overall the positives outweigh the negatives.

The mob is throwing away their lawn trimmings.

"Hey boss, I think that might've been a dead body"

"That's what I thought too, up until he said 'lawn trimmings'. Gotta learn to listen Lou."

Trick question! That's the Simpsons Movie, where they're stopping people from dumping in Lake Springfield :D
