I started watching The Simpsons when it first started as a small child and only about 5 years ago finally stopped watching new episodes. My SO has an almost encyclopedic knowledge of the show and it’s been our primary go-to comfort TV throughout our 15 years together. We also enjoy South Park and Bojack Horseman quite a bit but neither of us find Family Guy funny. The closet modern Animated Sitcom is Bob’s Burgers being as they are both family based and have a good deal of heart at their center.I’ve got a bit of time off and looking to check a few shows off my list. I’ve decided to start with The Simpsons. I watched it on and off in the 90s enough to be familiar with it, but not enough to where I could remember plot lines and/or quotes.
Reading online tells me there’s a sharp drop after season 10 or so. The episodes are quite easy to churn through but I’m not finding it’s sticking with me (currently mid-S2). The ultimate question, is it worth getting through all 32, soon-to-be 33 seasons? I fear I’ve been broken by shows that reward ADHD like Family Guy, vulgarity like South Park or shows that blend surreal comedy with emotional depth like Bojack Horseman. Not that The Simpsons doesn’t have any of this, just that it does so in a more family-friendly way.
We loved it as well.Reservation Dogs is fantastic. I can't believe how good these kids are in it, and I usually hate child actors. Clever TV like this and Atlanta are keeping the format relevant.
Just wanted to add, Ali was my fathers hero. He would of loved watching this.The first part is currently up on the PBS website in the U.S. for free viewing

Wow, I hope she milks that fountain of youth for all it's worth. She did seem older than the other actors in the show but I never would have guessed she was that much older than her role.The actress who plays Elora is 28 years old
She looks way more like a 16 year old than the Dude playing the titular role in Dear Evan Hanson looks like a high school age kid; that actor is “only” 27 but looks likes he’s 36.The actress who plays Elora is 28 years old
RIP Coach!I stumbled across a fun and sad thread on Twitter today.
The copy reads
”I promise I won’t cry. It’s just a single frame from a TV show.”
The single frame
Then people posted a pic from a show. There were SO many good ones, MASH, Fresh Prince, Good Times, Mary Tyler Moore, tons of others. And it wasn’t necessarily frames from finales.
So anyway, here’s the one I posted.

I wasn't completely taken with it, nor was I completely turned off from it. Aspects of it I loved, especially the part with Hello. Just that whole sequence, as weird and almost out of place as it was really worked for me. I'm sad there are only 3? episodes left... I feel there's still a lot that needs to be addressed. But much like the Christmas episode, I saw this episode as simply a fun exercise in doing something different.The Beard episode of Ted Lasso is a great, one-off deviation from the typical show formula in the same vein as the Teddy Perkins episode of Atlanta. I've been humming Hello since I watched on Friday.
Has anyone else been watching Impeachment: American Crime Story?

I want to. We really enjoy the OJ one quite a bit but I haven’t given it a go as of yet.
I didn't watch OJ, but this one is really compelling. Whoever wrote the screenplay must have thought Linda Tripp was a hideous person though. She is not painted in a good light.I'll probably wait until it's all out and see what the concensus is before I start. People vs OJ is one of the best season's of television of the last decade, but the Versace season was a chore to get through. No one has diminishing returns quite to the degree of Ryan Murphy.
Versace got a little soapy at times and the kills got a little American Horror Story at times but damn if Darren Criss didn’t absolutely murder (heh) the role.I'll probably wait until it's all out and see what the concensus is before I start.
