A show that many say is getting stale and old, and yes, I agree it is, but now that it has Family Guy to compete with again it will regain the lost spark that disappeared when Family Guy was cancelled. Many think that the Simpsons peaked at the cancellation of Family Guy (season 12) but so did Family Guy. It is what Family Guy copied so that it would get on TV for more than 5 minutes on Fox. A great pop culture icon and even the basis of some college classes.
From The Simpsons Episode "Homer in Space"

Reporter: Uh, question for the barbecue chef: Don't you think there is an inherent danger in sending underqualified civilians into outer space?

Homer: I'll field this one. The only danger is if they send us to that terrible Planet of the Apes. (Homer thinks for a minute then relizes something).

Homer: Wait a minute, Statue of Liberty--that was our planet! You maniacs! You blew it up! Damn you! Damn you all to hell!

The ONLY reason to ever watch FOX.
If it weren't for The Simpsons, I'd just watch ABC.

A highly outdated sitcom on the FOX network whose shelf life has long since passed.
The Simpsons may have been funny 17 years ago, now it's just a lame and tacky show.

Matt Groening's gift to the world. Originally the family appeared on the Tracey Ullman Show in 1987, and got their own show on the Fox network two and a half years later. The pilot episode would be "Some Enchanted Evening"; however, the animation was so terrible, they had to abort the series premiere for a while. They would abort the entire series if the second episode, "Bart the Genius", also turned out terrible. However, that was a success, and the first episode was switched to "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire", and "Some Enchanted Evening" was switched to the series finale/thirteenth episode, airing in May 1990. "Bart the Genius" was the second episode; however, it was the first episode to use the trademark title sequence (originally it would be "Some Enchanted Evening".) Thus, "The Simpsons" was born!
I watched The Simpsons on Sunday at 7:00 p.m.
