13249487, I didn't think I would ever be ok with the Simpson going away but this did it Posted by kevlar skully, Mon Apr-09-18 10:43 PM
Having Lisa resigning to no progress likely being made on such a important issue while presenting political correctness as some enemy to comedy is the moment the Simpsons became Abe yelling at clouds.
They could have just casted an Indian dude with a less exaggerated and stereotypical accent, solving the problem with Apu and making everyone happy. Instead they prove the Simpsons writers are just a bunch of old white guys with nothing left to say, really.
People have dogged this show for the last 20 years and I always defended it. Even if I didn't watch it and it wasn't great, I'd rather it still be on the air. After this, I finally feel like it will be ok if the Simpsons ended.
