The woman who does Marge’s voice sounds like she’s about to die. Maybe she will have to die so they finally end the show. I don’t even know who their audience is, it’s not anyone who likes the great early seasons.
It's so sad.

I had to click it off the moment Homer's rant lasted more than one point. Is he supposed to be Jerry Seinfeld?

Network television is a scam. Think about all those singing shows, dancing with the stars, America’s got talent, those random NBC/CBS prime time drama shows - they all claim to have millions of viewers but I’ve never spoken to a single person who watches any of them. The Simpsons falls into the exact same category.

I went over my parents recently for dinner and there was a football game on Fox playing in the background and a commercial came out for a singing show, but you need to guess who the singer is related to.

That's right.

Some faggot singing on stage, you gotta guess "hmmm...are you Michael Bubles....2nd cousin?" while the host fake laughs and the audience claps? All because it's not Michael Bubles 2nd cousin, but in fact is the singer is Yanni's brother.

My go to reference is "Wheel of Fortune"...no way that shit makes them money in 2023, but they keep it on daytime tv anyway, same slot for 50+ years. Profit is not the main motive, there's something else to explain uncancelled stuff like the Simpsons, etc.

idk...Merv Griffin and Matt Groening both have fake ass names that start with M and G, idk.

The Masked Singer has been on for like ten years at this point.

They keep these programs to keep people feeling comfortable because most people fear change and don't want lose connection to their past.

You can sit and watch Wheel of Fortune and remember yourself watching it 25 years ago, when you were happier and the planet wasn't as crazy as it is now. The same could be said for the Simpsons, even though the majority of it's true fans haven't watched it 20 years and mock it now.

Wheel of Fortune is the stupid man’s Jeopardy so it probably does have a core audience of boomers who are too intimidated to watch jeopardy and/or jeopardy viewers who leave it running in the background as they dose off in their La-Z Boys. Plus I bet it’s cheap as fuck to make.

I’d say I watch about 10 minutes of Wheel of Fortune every 2 years, which is exponentially more than any of the other prime time shows.

I would figure that WoF still does alright since it airs right after jeopardy, which airs right after the news with that Norah O'Donnell bitch. You get the news and two classic game shows, and jeopardy has been great since Ken Jennings started hosting the show

I feel like what keeps most of these shows on are boomers - I don’t see young people under 30 excited to watch wheel of fortune or even the masked singer / dancing with the stars / Americas got talent etc.

It’s also funny how the show “The Voice” is this big ratings hit for over a decade yet I don’t think it’s even produced one hit singer. The only one I’ve heard of is a country guy who got popular but he didn’t win (like that Daughtry guy from American idol a while ago)

That’s def the boomer block of tv, I can’t stand that Norah O’Donnell and I’ve heard she’s a pain the ass to work with

The only thing worse than people, erocks of the world, still watching a kids show is adults complaining it's shit. You were younger and dumber.
I’m just curious as to who is even watching it now, anyone who liked the classic seasons from years ago isn’t watching it now and I can’t see younger people getting into it. Then again it seems like there’s more cartoon shows for adults than kids which is weird.

To be fair, that’s what happened due to the writers strike since those kind of shows don’t technically have writers. They were scrambling for anything to produce until the strike was over. ABC just said fuck it and put Monday night football on ABC as well as ESPN just to have Monday covered
