    "The Simpsons: A 37-Year History" ALBUM IS OUT! 🎶💿
    (Link in the description of this video)
    *CORRECTIONS:*
    03:26 - This is NOT what you might think it is. The joke here is having a hard time spelling the character's name, which is "Dr. N!godatu"
    09:57 - The 1990 game I'm talking about here seems to have been a pinball machine, not a video game. The first Simpsons video game, and the reason I thought Bart vs. The Space Mutants was the third game (second after the "game" that was instead a pinball machine), was "The Simpsons" Arcade game released by Konami in 1991
    12:43 - Bart VS. Australia was apparently not and is not hated by Australians in general, and this does seem to be an accidental overstatement. According to some comments, and posts I have seen online too I believe, this episode is generally liked by Australians, and some even reference the jokes in the episode.

    Even though Disney has definitely milked Simpsons dry, they've still produces few actual gems of the HD era. Season 33 "Serious Flanders 1&2" and "Pixelated and afraid" are actual masterpeices.
    I recommend that people check these episodes out.

    Whenever I hear someone say that Australians don’t like the Australia episode I get so confused because as an Australian I’ve only ever seen it praised here by everyone to the point where a lot of people genuinely say “dollarydoos” and no one even questions it. I can only assume it was an older more prideful audience who are probably in their 60/70s now and couldn’t take a joke towards their own culture haha

      It's the way America reports things. Classic American projection. A few hundred complaints represents an entire population in their journalists' heads, rather than the pettiest minority. No rational Australian could be offended by it because unlike those indoctrinated nutcase yanks we don't take ourselves seriously to begin with.
      (Having said that, there is plenty of that old world patriotism still around, but it's dwindling fast as the boomers die off. I don't see how any informed person in this day and age can take personal pride in the rock they were born on and the corrupt monkeys that pretend to govern it.)

    Yeah, "Some Enchanted Evening" was supposed to be the first episode but wound up as the last episode of Season 1 instead. That's why it's the only episode without a couch gag, as it was meant to be the original standard opening that all the other episodes would then modify in some way.

    For me the Simpsons took a nosedive around season 14/15. I think there are still some very funny episodes seasons 10-14 but once they switched to the new HD formatting I began to lose interest. The movie aired and it was hysterical but that following season which I believe was season 15 I can remember thinking ‘oh maybe it will be good again because the movie was’. It was a subpar season opener and from then on it stopped being this great big family affair where we would gather around to watch the new Simpsons episode. I stopped watching altogether by season 17 or 18. It’s crazy to know it’s still going on and I never thought I would stop no matter how bad it got since I grew up watching this show. Whenever it ends I will watch that final episode but I have no pull to catch up on all the episodes I missed over the years.

      Dude! I love that song! It’s inspired by songs _like_ “I Want Her” by Keith Sweat, but not just that one. It’s made in the genre of New Jack Swing in general from the late ‘80s/early ‘90s, as it fits this part of the video and the theme of ‘Bartmania’ the most, not to mention that ‘Do the Bartman’ was composed in that same style. I also took inspiration from pieces like The Fresh Prince of Bel Air’s theme, along with several characteristic patterns from New Jack Swing.

      But I recently started to watch those newer episodes and I have to say, even though they aren't anywhere close to the early seasons, I find them still much better than many other popular animated series.
      But because they set such high quality standards with their early seasons, the newer ones feel worse than they actually are

    The video is very good, but unfortunately I couldn't concentrate well with the background music.

However, the video is generally good.

    In the past 5 years or so the Simpsons has become the worst show on TV. It's completely unwatchable

    I know that I am ready to say goodbye. The show stopped being funny a decade ago.
