Doo-doo-doo da doo-doo-doo da doo-doo-doo-doo.
What up.
Just so no-one calls the Missing Persons Hotline or anything: I haven't dropped off the face of the Earth; I'm just feeling to lazy to write at the moment.
I've been watching the first few seasons of The Simpsons this Queen's Birthday Long Weekend, and thoroughly enjoying them. I bought the DVDs on sale at K-Mart a few months ago, but never got around to watching them.
Watching some of those early episodes reminded me of a phenomenon that I think we've all experienced, what I'd like to call "Simpsonesia": the feeling, when watching the beginning of a repeat episode of The Simpsons, that you've not seen that episode before. Of course, by the three or four minute mark you'll realise that it's Burns Verkaufen Der Kraftwerk or something. Happens to me at least once a week.
I get the feeling that I'll still be watching Simpsons repeats in the 6:00 time slot on Network Ten when I'm 70 years old.
I have all of them up until season 5, I got to say that the old hand-drawn ones of the 90’s have so much heart over the digital ones of today.
A lot say that the series tanks after season 8, But I think it was good until season 10 or so.
Yeah, I’d go with around Season 10.
And Oberts, I’ve definitely suffered from “Simpsonesia” many a time!
