The Simpsons

I’ve decided to watch all the episodes of the Simpsons from start to finish.  I used to watch them every Sunday back in the mid 90’s but slowly stopped as college took over.  I knew I’d seen a lot of them but I didn’t know exactly how many full seasons since most where in reruns.  Well I’m in to the 7th season and so far I’ve seen every single episode, which I’m kinda shocked about.  I figured there would be a episode here and there that I would have missed, but so fat that hasn’t been the case.

I thought that watching the first ones would have been really painful, but I quite enjoyed them.  I’ve actually been having a great time rediscovering all the really good episodes.  The one with Blinky the fish or where Marge fights cartoon violence.  I really like the one where Lisa gets a substitute teacher.  Flaming Moe’s is also and awesome episode (you fell on Aerosmith!)  as is the baseball one.  Mr Plow, Homer gets Apu fired, Bart and Lisa play Hockey, Homer’s Mom… I could go on  and on.

Not sure when I’ll get to an episode I haven’t seen.  I imagine it should be in the next season or two.  I know everyone says how bad the writing got, but I haven’t come across it yet.  So far it’s been all aces.  Anyone else out the Simpsons fans?
