eh, there is a pretty clear gap in quality between modern and classic simpsons. As much as people are allowed to enjoy what they want, we're also free to criticize it.

I used to love watching South Park when it first came out. I have probably seen a handful since 2000 or so. I am curious to what people the show now.

I actually don't mind modern south park, but it's not for everyone. It's a very different show now than what it was. I think it helps me that it's basically always remained the passion project of just two dudes, so even when there's dips in quality or changes to the humor/storytelling, there's still a consistent essence to it. It feels genuine at least. To compare it to simpsons, which at this point kind of just feels like a corporate shell of itself.

Dunno I havent watched South Park for the longest time, really like the early stuff. Couple of years ago I was flying and they had south park in the infotainment. I watched it and it was pretty damn funny and unhinged just like I remembered it

yeah I still think it's funny, it's held up way better than some other shows. They did serialized stories for awhile which was pretty different, but it's still always felt like south park is what i was getting at
