Milhouse, you're starting to get irritating. So what if The Simpsons is now different then it was years ago? Next thing you know you'll be complaining about the halloween episodes being too far fetched
There were plenty of good episodes in the last five years. The one were Homer was a beer baron ( I don't remember when that came out ) was hillarious.
And there are plenty of episodes where things where things happened that would never happen to anyone else. Like when side show Bob first tries to take over the krusty show and tries to murder Bart later on.
