Krusty is a fictional character (just like your return address, for instance) FYI.

Because most silly little rituals are based on the Jews silly little rituals.

(What on earth are you talking about? Seriously.)

    Jews = hard-on for money
    Simpsons = valuable commercial property
    dead horse = shitty uncreative episodes for last 5 seasons

Get it? (n. VKM)

(Oh, yeah...I didn't realize you were talking out of your ass. Gotcha.)

The Simpsons being shitty lately? That one's self-explanitory. Even most of the fanbois admit this.

TEH JEWS liking money? So? It's like saying Muslims are particularly missionary in their religion, or that Asians do better in school than whitey. Maybe you'd rather ignore the broad distinctions between ethnic\cultural groups, but I'd rather be realistic.

The property being valuable? The Simpsons are still on because they command shitloads of money for FOX. If they weren't, they'd have been taken off the air long ago. What the hell, who peed in your Raisin Bran?

Oh, I thought you were kidding. Are you crazy? This season has ruled. The Halloween special rocked. The england episode was hilarious. I think they've had a great season. I don't know that many people besides trolls who think differently.

It's also like saying that all blacks like watermelon and chicken, and that all chinese are bad drivers. Are you comfortable being in that group? I mean, if you're *that* guy...more power to ya. Just don't get upset if I tend to lump you into that narrow-minded group of idiots who can't evolve past stereotypes.

Let's explain some very basic principles to you. Real quickly. The *reason* they garner so much money is because people *watch* them. See those things called ratings? They mean people are watching. When people watch (in droves, week after week) it means that they can command the money they rightfully deserve. Now, I'm sure you're familiar with the old, "can't have your cake and eat it too" concept. See, if they're *bad*...then it stands to reason that people *wouldn't* watch (in droves, week after week) and thusly, the ratings would go *down* meaning that they wouldn't be commanding the money they're commanding. I know it's a tough nut to swallow, but the fact that they *are* commanding so much money basically means they're...how shall I put this? "still good". You obviously happen to be in what we like to call, "a very small, vocal, minority". Don't be upset. I'm sure there are maybe two or three people, like Alex Cain for instance, who share your view. Maybe the two of you can have a long 500 thread discussion about how they've "jumped the shark" and then pat yourselves on your intellectually challenged backs.

Happy to Help.

Uh no. It's one thing to say 'blacks like hot sauce lol.' It's quite another to ignore an inherant trend in a cultural group because you can't see anything past religious or secular denomination. It is well established that Muslims are aggressively missionary. Or are all historians 'narrow-minded idiots'?

Okaaaay. I never argued that people don't watch them, so thanks for reading. My argument is in terms of the quality. It looks like we're going down that same video game debate road again.

(When people watch (in droves week after week) it means that they can command the money they rightfully deserve.)

Now let me challenge your definition of 'rightfully' (and keep it on topic). Can Hulk Hogan, by the same token, _rightfully_ demand a shitload of money from TNA? He had marginal returns for the WWE during his run (aside from PPV buyrates), but at the same time, his appeal was to the audience that was already entrenched in the product. They came to see the Hulk-up, the legdrop, the ear-cupping, what have you.

The Simpsons is usually in the top 20 or so of the ratings. They're essentially at the same spot they've been for the last 12 years or so of their run. Why? Because it's the same people who tune it to see the same damn thing they've seen for years now. Now, 'rightfully' they deserve money because they're bringing in steady returns. However, _rightfully_ they don't, because they might as well just air reruns they are so banked out creatively. Their writers have even admitted so publically.

(Now, I'm sure you're familiar with the old, "can't have your cake and eat it too" concept. See, if they're *bad*...then it stands to reason that people *wouldn't* watch (in droves, week after week) and thusly, the ratings would go *down* meaning that they wouldn't be commanding the money they're commanding. I know it's a tough nut to swallow, but the fact that they *are* commanding so much money basically means they're...how shall I put this? "still good".)

Again, see my argument from before. The Simpsons could, given their appeal, theoretically continue making new episodes for another decade and still bring in the same returns. Looney Tunes have been around for 60 years, and can still bring in some cash with a live-action movie. It doesn't mean that it's still good.

(You obviously happen to be in what we like to call, "a very small, vocal, minority". Don't be upset. I'm sure there are maybe two or three people, like Alex Cain for instance, who share your view. Maybe the two of you can have a long 500 thread discussion about how they've "jumped the shark" and then pat yourselves on your intellectually challenged backs.)

I think the pro and anti-Simpsons causes are pretty much equal. Maybe you just need to get out more.
