The last couple of episodes have felt classic, especially tonight's. Must be the switch to HD waking the writers up.

Haven't watched for a while since Desperate Housewives is on at the same time and I don't have a DVR. I miss the new Family Guys too. Hopefully I can catch up on them when they are in reruns.

I voted for "never heard of it." That's not quite accurate, as I've heard of it, but have never seen it. I'm sure that doesn't surprise most of you.

I think it's time to pull the plug on the series and stick to releasing the occasional feature (a la Star Trek TNG). Or maybe an annual holiday special. The Simpsons in matching white dickies and red V-neck sweaters. Have Monty Burns sing a duet with Bing Crosby or something.

I watched it every week for the first few years and then took a break for several years. I am back to watching it every week again and it's been very good. Even after 20 years, they still are able to come up with good shizz.
I've said it once and I'll say it again: I hate Family Guy! I'll admit that some of the stuff is funny but most of it is rude. I don't ever choose to watch that show.

The writing seems to have returned to its former sharpness. I drifted away about 5 years ago, but have begun watching again recently as well. Laughter has ensued. That's all I ask. I think Homer is in the same pantheon as Bugs Bunny.

I don't ever choose to watch that show. the rudeness is what makes it GREAT! it's an acquired taste. Simpson's for me are kinda lame now. maybe it's back to what it use to be but, that was 20years ago goodness. kids don't get into Simpson's anymore. it's just for the fans that been watching for the past 20years. you know... everyone 30 and up. Family Guy is more of a now show. Simpson's will always go down in history as one of the greatest but, it's time to move on.

I still watch the Simpsons. If I'm not mistaken when I was in High School twenty years ago I would watch the Simpsons on Sunday and Alf on Monday.

Can't get into Family Guy either. I realize I'm tragically unhip, but the humor seems to pick on some people who don't deserve it, & it's like they make the main character into a hero even tho' he's rude & shallow.
I did enjoy their brief satire of Tim McCarver, however. Now he deserves it.

I voted D'oh! because I have the Simpsons in my heart, but since I've had kids, I've not been able to watch it regularly. I mean almost never, because that is bath and story time. The very short bits I've seen seem good. The only ones I don't like are the ones where Lisa sings.

I voted D'oh, because I haven't really watched it much lately. Seems like when the new ones are on, I'm always too drunk to watch it after Watching the STEELERS!!!! on Sundays. Go Steelers!!!!!!!!!

The writing has gotten better and there has been more laughs than the last few seasons.
