Kill it already. It's been terrible for 15 years now.

15 years is more than generous. It's been terrible for nearly 30 - the drop-off around season nine or ten was precipitious and it's only gotten worse since then.

The technical term seems to be "Zombie Simpsons".

Their ratings would tell another story. Still one of the top rated shows.

Ok let me rephrase: it's been terrible for 15 years in comparison to what it used to be.

Also thank you for reddit.

I can agree with that. Which then begs the question, is the rest of TV so bad that it's still top rated, or is it momentum, or are we just looking back with rose colored glasses? :)

And you're welcome!
