Hmmm... never watched that one, I saw short skits of it on Cartoon Network during commercial breaks of Family Guy, and what I saw was stupid and not the least bit funny. Maybe I should give a full episode a chance...

I agree with you though in the sense that The Simpsons was the ONLY edgy cartoon when it came out, and it's a different playing field with South Park and Family Guy pushing the envelope.

I still think the last season of The Simpsons was weaker on its own merits though, because for the first time, I got the sense that for certain episodes, the writers weren't familiar with the show's history. The first episode of the season was a total retread of a generic Homer/Marge conflict, and started with Lisa questioning why her dad was into watching football ("Daddy Daughter Day" episode, anyone?) It was the first genuine retread where I felt the writers were not in on the joke; at least in that Duncan episode a few years back, the Comic Book Guy popped up and gave them shit about it ("The Simpsons already HAD a horse.")
