‘The Simpsons has been in decline as long as I’ve been alive’: why it’s time for the show to end for good

If I had to pick a specialist subject, it would be The Simpsons. I reference it incessantly. I can recall episode names and showrunners by heart. I annoy my friends and loved ones by reciting lines as they play out on the TV. I love The Simpsons.
It’s also the worst thing on television.
Revealing yourself as a Simpsons fan comes with inevitable qualifiers: “Not the new episodes!” Most people want their favourite show to last as long as miserly TV executives will allow. Not me. I would gladly see The Simpsons sent to the knacker’s yard, rather than given a second movie, as was announced earlier this week.
Fans agree the show pales in comparison with the quality of its “golden era” – a period usually defined somewhere between seasons one through eight – where it had a mind-boggling roster of talent. With the likes of John Swartzwelder, George Meyer and Conan O’Brien, the show’s writers were masters of slice-of-life, absurdist, high- and low-brow comedy, often jumping between them in a single gag.
The Simpsons pushed what was acceptable on television, particularly with Bart’s smart-aleck underachieving and Homer’s penchant for beer, food and general laziness. President George HW Bush famously once said that his goal was to make American families “a lot more like the Waltons and a lot less like the Simpsons”. A few years later, The Simpsons retaliated by having Homer fist-fight Bush in a sewer.
