The Simpsons are still rolling along after all these years
for a really good reason, there’s nothing funnier on TV!
That’s not saying much, considering most television
programming isn’t fit for man or beast, but I do want to
give credit where it is due.
The first show was broadcast in 1989, it was raw and
trying to find and fill a niche.
The early years had Homer being a mad, over the top,
father/husband/blue collar worker with a bratty kid
that would drive him bonkers.
He would eventually be refined into a more sympathetic
figure with Bart being less of a jerk and more of a “work
in progress”, learning as they both went along.
The characters have improved mightily over the years,
but the main strength of the show has always been its writing.
Top notch in that department, with no equal.
I get a kick out of the current series complaint, “It isn’t as
good as it used to be!”, and that may be accurate but it is STILL
the best comedy show on television.
This is a slice of Season 14, A Star is Born, it works really
well for playing on the show.
The audio can be found on the The Simpson’s “Tesitify” recording.
Some superb lines here…
