So random question about The Simpsons, /co/.
I've heard talk for a while now that The Simpsons has gotten good again. Obviously, it's been some time since it jumped the shark, and the show has since been notorious for being shit and not like its early seasons. However, again, I keep hearing that the new seasons are actually good. Not as good as the first 8 or so, but good nonetheless.
What I'm wondering is, is this legit? Has The Simpsons really improved to the point where it's good again, or is it just the desperate ramblings of Simpson fanboys?

It has gotten a bit funnier over the years, but yeah it's nowhere near golden age. A lot of the episodes are still terrible, but it's mostly just mediocre. It still lacks the satirical bite of the original, and the emotional moments are unconvincing (if they do attempt them), but it's gotten more tolerable imo.
>>91852708
Do you think it could get better overtime? Like, do you think this is a sign that the show will be better in the long run somehow?
>>91852548
it will never be as funny as it used to be. the core of writers left long ago and that kind of chemistry will never exist again.
however the simpsons is still better than the average prime-time sitcom. even if it's a 'bad' episode, it will still make you laugh sometimes.
What went wrong?
>>91852407
Shit thread, you should ask what went right, much easier question to answer.
Everything from the schedule to the logo, turner fucked up big on this one.
>>91852407
Putting new shows like TTG and nuPPG in it
>Episode 9 - "C"
>"Samurai Jack's worst fear is realized when he faces off against Aku; the demon makes a shocking discovery about Ashi that puts her in grave danger."
What did they mean by this?
>>91851794
It means Ashi is the best waifu.
Oh look, all the haters can be happy because they're going to kill Samurai Gash.
>Jack and Ashi hook up
>Aku finds out
>Kills Ashi
>Jack somehow gains access to a time portal
>Uses it to go back in time and save Ashi rather than go back to the pilot
>Jack kills Aku
>Jack and Ashi live together in future as couple
>This smell... it's FORESHADOWING.
Hey guys, thanks for your patience with this one! See you Friday~

This... is an enemy stand! I'm sure of it!
Can Superman outrun the Flash?
Based on how their powers work, no.
But frequently writers let superman win races with the flash because he's more popular as a character. Also both characters' maximum speed varies wildly from comic to comic. Sometimes Flash moves faster than instantaneous teleportation and can outrun Death, other times he can't outrun a boomerang thrown by a normal human
Technically the flash uses static created by his thighs to form an electrically charged barrier that scrambles the air molecules orbitals thus releasing the energy of the electrons in the atoms. This throws off the photons of light making it seem like Barry's legs are moving at break neck speed but the reality is he's as slow as the average reader. So to answer your question, yes.
>>91851525
He can't, any time they race the flash toys with him
>new Netflix recommendation system is recommending me shows I have no interest in watching
>Goldie and the Bear is a "90% match with my interests".
Why did they get rid of the star rating system?
>>91851318
>that bear
It feels like they're trying to hide the actual quality of the movies from me. Which they already did partially with the Netflix originals where you had to go into the show in order to see what the star rating is.
>Hey user, because of your interest in a garbage animated show, here's another garbage animated show you might like
Not sure the system is really to blame here
Where do you draw the line for character fanart that deviates so far from the source material it essentially becomes the artists OC?
Depends on how autistic you are
>>91953993
I understand deviating from the source material to make it more palpable, like giving the character more human proportions, but if it looks so far removed from the actual character and you have to be told who the drawing is of, then that's gone too far.
It stops being the character I liked to a just another OC character I fap to, which makes me lose interest faster.
>>91953993
Of we talk about Big Dad's version of Gaz then I think it's fine but I'd like to see other version of older Gaz
Lewd episode title edition.
Blaine has taken the memory loss cure so eventually he's going to: a) be dead, b) go schizo, c) have nothing happen, or d) be revealed to have been faking the memory loss all along.

One thing that should be noted is each scene in episode one depicts a different stage in the Daughter of Aku's lives, so you can put the argument to rest that Jack is too young for Ashi.
>>91953722
He's still too old for her mentally.
It's a father and daughter relationship.
>>91953768
>He's still too old for her mentally.
No, he isn't. He's nearly as stunted as she is.
>>91953722
we all know she's an adult, are you a fucking autist?
no SVTFOE thread today? lets fix that.

I just fucking realized Jackie is Kuroneko from Oreimo
In this clip, the MC breaks up with Kuroneko despite being with her for a little while. Kuroneko tells the MC she had a feeling he liked someone else the whole time.

Would you guys cry if Jackie cried like this at the party? What would your face be like?

I get the feeling that this list is wrong.
How would you make Earthbound into a good TV show?
>>91850286
Make it about undertale instead.

Trolling aside, I've been wondering this myself. My guess would be a Pokémon style adventure anime, though it would be tricky transferring the game's humor, since the game takes advantage of the fact that the dialogue can be read in multiple ways in your head.
>>91850286
Eh, don't know if it'd work as an animated show. You'd have to get someone who can capture both the art-style and humor perfectly.
