Rules for Posting Guides on Our Community

1. Defining a Guide Guides are comprehensive reference materials, how-tos, or comparison tables. A guide must be well-organized both in content and layout. Information should be easily accessible without unnecessary navigation. Guides can include flowcharts, step-by-step instructions, or visual references that compare different elements side by side.

2. Infographic Guidelines Infographics are permitted if they are educational and informative. They should aim to convey complex information visually and clearly. However, infographics that primarily serve as visual essays without structured guidance will be subject to removal.

3. Grey Area Moderators may use discretion when deciding to remove posts. If in doubt, message us or use downvotes for content you find inappropriate.

4. Source Attribution If you know the original source of a guide, share it in the comments to credit the creators.

5. Diverse Content To keep our community engaging, avoid saturating the feed with similar topics. Excessive posts on a single topic may be moderated to maintain diversity.

6. Verify in Comments Always check the comments for additional insights or corrections. Moderators rely on community expertise for accuracy.

By following these rules, we can maintain a diverse and informative community. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to reach out to the moderators. Thank you for contributing responsibly!

Those outliers in the golden era seasons are all clip shows.

[–] Geek_King@lemmy.world 19 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Having grown up with Simpsons, it makes me sad to see it visualized that Simpsons has been awful much longer then it was actually good.

[–] deadsenator@lemmy.ca 5 points 10 months ago

A bit sad, yes. However, this image does somewhat validate my decision to stop watching after season 13. When the DVDs were selling, I bought up to that season as well. This image is also missing seasons 32-35 which looks like there are some better rated episodes. I am sure there are funny bits in the later seasons, but I am not really interested anymore.

Had to look up why season 6, episode 3 was so hated...it's a clip show that I had completely blanked out of memory.

I mean, anything above a 5 is above average?

1 - Don't even waste your time
2 - Really really bad
3 - Has some good things, but mostly bad
4 - Fell flat quite a lot, but still enjoyable
5 - Mid/Average
6 - Decent
7 - Pretty good
8 - Good
9 - Great
10 - Masterpiece

So, from my list, it looks like it's been consistently okay, which is what I would expect from a show that has run as long as it has!

[–] bhmnscmm@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago (1 children)

If I remember correctly the IMDB average is closer to 7.

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

has ran

"Has run", my dude.

I'm disappointed that it doesn't incorporate any other information such as artists, writers, directors, producers, budgets, etc cetera.

[–] lung@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

I mean how much new shit can you really come up with at this point? R&M ran dry after like 3 seasons and latest one was just gore porn and callbacks

What would you do if you're the writer? I think I'd pat myself on the back, milk a paycheck for a while, and find more fertile ground to impregnate

[–] kratoz29@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago

This comes real handy as I am watching The Simpson as a comedy relief series with my girlfriend for the first time ever (she watched several episodes, and I watched even less).

[–] 9point6@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

Damn, that 2nd to last season kinda shows it's never getting cancelled

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 1 points 10 months ago

I use to think they'd have to stop one the voice actors passed. However ai.

Obligatory two hour Soup Emporium video essay.

It is too bad they can't hire back Conan.

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

He didn't really write that much.

[–] HobbitFoot@thelemmy.club 1 points 10 months ago

He wrote a decent number of classic episodes and has later been a creative head of a TV show.

There may be other classic writers who could be a showrunner, but I feel like Command definitely could.
