The Simpsons is one the best cartoons of all time but sadly it is still going on and is not going to a 9. Because every thing after season 8 can go and be buried a hole a suffocate for all I care. But I am only talking about the good episodes. And the reason Classic Simpsons are so good is because of humor and the characters witch gave us such popular characters. My personal wis because of his depth and that he is essentially the characters I can relate to the most.
