Nega-Brent Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Fox has ordered two additional seasons of The Simpsons, pushing its total to 19 through the 2007-2008 season. Having debuted on Jan. 14, 1990, The Simpsons reigns as the longest-running animated series in history and the longest-running primetime scripted series currently on television. The Simpsons will reach 400 episodes in May 2007. Fox also announced that King of the Hill has been picked up for an 11th season. Let them die with some dignity! Quote Link to comment
Arcane Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Let them die with some dignity! It's already too late for that. There's some funny moments in newer episodes, but they haven't been consistently good in awhile. I used to make sure I saw every new episode, but I don't really even try anymore.

darkon Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 This will keep happening until Matt Groening gets tired of doing it. Quote Link to comment
v for vicki Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 Honestly I am so sick of the simpsons. I used to love the show and then one day when I was watching it I realized it no longer made me laugh. Bad enough the re runs are on every 2 seconds, they have to keep either killing people off or making people come out just to keep people watching. And even sadder.......they are making a movie which I think is supposed to come out in 2008. Quote Link to comment

Battle_Pope Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 I like the reruns. I can watch old Simpsons episodes all day long. as could I. Groening really needs to let go and focus completely on new Futurama. Quote Link to comment
Ceraziefish Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 The world really needs to let go and focus completely on new Futurama. Fix'd Quote Link to comment
margot Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 Huh? Groening hasn't worked on the show at all since like the 6th season. Quote Link to comment
The Masked Men Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 I will say that the rampant renewal of The Simpsons has led to one and only one good thing; Ricky Gervais writing an episode (that will air TONIGHT holy god I just realized). If Ricky Gervais of all people cannot write a good episode of The Simpsons there is no hope left, so I will watch tonight's show with great interest. - Masked Man #2 Quote Link to comment

Baltar Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 The Simpsons were really good until the 8th season started then it just started a steady decline. Quote Link to comment

The writer/star of the original version of The Office and Extras and totally one of the funniest comedians on the planet right now. Totally. - Masked Man #2 DOES post. Sometimes.
