Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Has anyone ever wondered how The Simpsons were so great in their Golden Age?
I mean, I personally think it should be studied, not because it's deep (although some episodes have some layers), but because it's the most effective critique of 90's America or even Western Culture.

I personally always found it really interesting for how much their could say in 30 mins referencing so many things, and on par with comedy series that deserve praise and analysis like Malcolm in the Middle

I wish to state for the record that /sp/ does a much better job at this type of thread than /lit/ is doing right now.
