I love it and most of my friends love it back home, but here in Texas most people I talk to don't. Is it a regional thing? Do you like the Simpsons? Whats your age (or age group if you dont wanna get too specific) and where do you live?

Im in Georgia, 25.. and love simpsons.. everyday 6-7pm and every sunday night..

I dont collect toys, but Ive got all the playmate interactive figures of em..


same with all my friends.. cant say I know many people that dont like them around here..

maybe some of the chicks

I don't like the Simpsons..


I love the Simpsons! oooh!

I'm almost 18..I'm from Massachusetts

Hate it. Used to watch it the first year, but I was younger then and it was just "different" to see a primetime cartoon.

I think the show's fanbase has gotten pretty ridiculous and treat it like a real town with real people... the "virtual Springfield" CDROM is just a waste.

Everyone I know who likes this show is a comicbook or tech geek.

Don't make fun of Trekkies, you think-you're-hip-and-edgy Simpson fans, you're right there with 'em!

Now change the channel and go back to playing Advanced Dungeons & Dragons.

Use to watch it years ago when it first came on... don't really watch anything these days.

TV: *yawn*

Admittedly, the first season, while humerous in spots, doesn't hold a candle to the later seasons. If you haven't watched since the first season, you really owe it to yourself to check out a few of the syndicated episodes. You may change your mind.

YES

Though the past few years, the show is not as good as it used to be. The re-runs are the best.

Ayup. One of the few programs on TV that I actually make an effort to see on a regular basis (the others being Buffy, Angel and Dragon Ball Z :D )

I still watch the sindicated older episodes but the new ones are losing their edge (with a few exceptions). I would say it is on the downward slide but my still have another season left before collapse.

oh, yeah...28 in Oregon

Me like

almost 19

Yes. I think I've seen every single episode(honestly). I'm 20, in CT.

Yes, it's only the best show to EVER be on TV.

Ever hear of fresh air?

we need simpsons dvds!!!

The new season (12) is pretty much suck IMO...only a few amusing moments...

Family Guy, on the other hand...now THATS a funny show!

The Simpsons is terrific satire of stereotypical American nuclear family life. I love it. It's, franky, the best show on television after The Sopranos. One of my favorite episodes is the one where Homer goes to the chili festival and stars hallucinating. I was literally on the floor during that one.

I live in Finland and I'm 17. And before you ask, no, it's not dubbed!

rumor has it that season 1 will be released this fall.. its still unconfirmed, but its listed on pretty much all release sites.

wasnt family guy cancelled?

almost 18, in Minnesota, and love the Simpsons, on 5-6 every night on FOX


I also likes The Family Guy...too bad it was cancelled :(

I don't think it's the best show ever, but no cartoon series has ever been as consistantly witty, and worked on so many different humor levels at once.

That said, I stopped really caring a couple years back. I still catch it from time to time. I don't watch any shows in daily syndication, but if I did, it would probably be The Simpsons.

I don't like the SimpsonsIf it has to be in that genre...I like Futurama better...but it still isn't great

Entertainment Weekly a few years back did a ranking of the 50 best television shows of all time, and lo and behold, The Simpsons was #1.

I'd agree with them. It's the only TV series I'd buy on DVD regardless of the price/features/whatever without question.

Considering I'm nicknamed after one of the characters, I'd have to say yes, I enjoy the Simpsons from time to time.

And actually, re: the poster who said all people that like the show are comic nerds or tech geeks, well, there must be a lot of them because I don't know anyone that doesn't like and watch the Simpsons from time to time. Admittedly, I am a tech geek and know many other tech geeks, but even the non-geeks I know love the show.

Umm i think it was cancelled, but then i heard that Fox is going to show the 3rd season this summer...

My favorite animated series of all time.
:)

-also, I grew up in TX, so disliking the Simpsons is not necessarily a regional thing

Ha ha really funny -rolleyes- When you consider I've been watching the show since it first came on in 88 or 89 on a weekly basis and watching one or two episodes of the reruns daily during the week, it's not entirely hard to see every episode. Yes I do have a life. After all, you've got 3000+ posts on DVDTalk. Isn't it a bit like the pot calling the kettle black? ;)
