Welcome to TheSimpsons, a community for discussing everything related to America's non-prehistoric cartoon family, The Simpsons!

Right about now, you're probably saying, "Troy, basically every post starts with 'Guess the Episode', is that all this community is?"

To which I say you've got some attitude, mister.

But no, any Simpsons content is allowed in this community, although we do ask that you keep the shitposting over in !simpsonsshitposting@sh.itjust.works.

Guess the Episode "Rules"

These "Rules" aren't real, so if you think of something clever, do that instead.

What a run, though. Almost ten years of knocking it out of the park.

Yeah, it dropped, but. If you were there, you remember it was magic for a long time.

Up yours, children!

Most shows would kill for that kind of run. 10 seasons so good that it has been able to continue on sheer momentum for nearly another 30.

From the Wikipedia page:

The Simpsons has been named by Time as the greatest television series of the 20th century.

The 20th century ended in 1999. The last Simpsons episode from the 20th century was season 11 episode 9. You can see it was already in decline by then. The vast majority of the episodes were released in the 21st century. We're a quarter of the way to the 22nd century and they're still releasing them. But, it hasn't been good since the last century even if Homer's probably saying "it's just a little slimy, it's still good, it's still good!" (S7E5, 1995)
