Woo-hoo!!!

The most consistently funny and well-written TV show over the last two decades, The Simpsons, is going to be around at least through it's 18th and 19th seasons. If it lasts one more season after that, it will become the longest-running entertainment program in television history. I'm 32 years old, and this show has been on the air for more than half my lifetime.

I don't watch The Simpsons as much as I used to. I don't think the show has ever really Jumped the Shark, but it has been past it's prime for a number of years now. Still, a bad episode of The Simpsons is smarter, funnier and more insightful than 90% of the rest of the dreck on TV, and even these days they still manage to put out a classic episode now and then. I hope they enjoy continued success.
