How to get the ratings of a series on IBDb?
It is too bad they can't hire back Conan.
He didn't really write that much.
I mean, anything above a 5 is above average?
1 - Don't even waste your time
2 - Really really bad
3 - Has some good things, but mostly bad
4 - Fell flat quite a lot, but still enjoyable
5 - Mid/Average
6 - Decent
7 - Pretty good
8 - Good
9 - Great
10 - Masterpiece
So, from my list, it looks like it's been consistently okay, which is what I would expect from a show that has ran as long as it has!
has ran
"Has run", my dude.
If I remember correctly the IMDB average is closer to 7.
That's my personal rating system too. 5 I would literally not watch, 6 probably not either unless it is maybe close to 7 and something simple like some action flick. Haven't watched the Simpsons in a long long time though. I wasn't even aware it got this bad. Even before I quit people often said the "new" stuff wasn't that good but I still felt it was quite enjoyable most of the time. I guess at some point any successful product just becomes a milking process.
Had to look up why season 6, episode 3 was so hated...it's a clip show that I had completely blanked out of memory.
This comes real handy as I am watching The Simpson as a comedy relief series with my girlfriend for the first time ever (she watched several episodes, and I watched even less).
Damn, that 2nd to last season kinda shows it's never getting cancelled
This is several years old. People say the show is getting better and I did notice a slight uptick in watch ability towards season 31, but since the move to Disney the show is not The Simpsons anymore, it's Disney's The Simpsons and the change is not subtle.
I mean how much new shit can you really come up with at this point? R&M ran dry after like 3 seasons and latest one was just gore porn and callbacks
What would you do if you're the writer? I think I'd pat myself on the back, milk a paycheck for a while, and find more fertile ground to impregnate
Season 7 was the best season since 3. If you haven't watched since they ditched Roiland you should tune back in. I still think about the Fear Hole episode literally every single day of my life. It changed me. If you have watched the most recent season and you still think it's all goreporn and callbacks then idk I guess I respectfully disagree.
If you like seasons 1-3 of R&M and don't mind recommendations from an Internet stranger you should check out Dan Harmon's newest show Krapopolis. It is SO funny and definitely not gore porn like a lot of recent cartoons. I'd also recommend Star Trek Lower Decks which is show-run by Mike McMahan who worked on the seasons of R&M you liked. Even if you're not a Trek fan, maybe even especially, it's still very funny.
Thanks for the recs, though I thought season 7 was pretty boring and do not remember the episode you're referring to haha. But 1-3 I know basically line for line
But yeah krapopolis and lower decks seems cool
Krapopolis was painfully unfunny. I wanted to like it going in but everything felt so contrived. I pushed myself through 5 episodes before throwing up my hands
Having grown up with Simpsons, it makes me sad to see it visualized that Simpsons has been awful much longer then it was actually good.
Time makes fools of us all.
A bit sad, yes. However, this image does somewhat validate my decision to stop watching after season 13. When the DVDs were selling, I bought up to that season as well. This image is also missing seasons 32-35 which looks like there are some better rated episodes. I am sure there are funny bits in the later seasons, but I am not really interested anymore.
