In thinking the writers of the simpsons are up worthy of a knighthood at the very least ??

[ApocalypseCheese]

Bloody love that programme.

They are God. Fact.

yabu for not knowing that only British citizens can get knighthoods. But yes it is genius

Mumsnet is so educational

YANBU. DD and I are experts on the Simpsons and have every episode (until 2008) on DVD.

It is the no.1 programme of all time. I love everything about it. Hurray for The Simpsons!

Can't the writers have the same sort of knighthood that Bob Geldorf got?

Bob Geldorf's was honorary I think, he's not officially a knight

I know one of them. But he's American so can't be knighted

Definitely.It is the most intelligent programme to ever come out of America,and funny to boot.

at this thread, i love matt groening, his life in hell books are great really funny

Definitely.It is the most intelligent programme to ever come out of America,and funny to boot.

Would I BU to suggest it's gone downhill a bit recently though? It was excellent for ages, much longer than most programmes, but IMO they're slipping now.

Sorry.My computer is going barmy.Doh!

and there have been lots of greats to follow like south park and family guy

I used to love it.

But then I saw an episode where Homer crashed the car while drink driving...so he dragged the unconscious (also drunk) Marge into the driver's seat and ran away.

I can't watch it since then. I just can't stop the cats bum mouth.

And the beginning of the film? Appalling.

I've moved on to Futerama.

Oooohhhh no, Futurama isn't a patch on the Simpsons !

YANBU the simpsoms rule !!

The Simpsons are fantastic. There have been some crap episodes lately but I have also seen some real gems that prove they still have it. I never get tired of watching the old episodes even though I have seen them so many times.

Brilliant programme. Futurama, shite. Family Guy, even more shite. South Park was good at first but sometimes they go too far.
