Some ppl stopped watching because it grew stale.

Fox is constantly cancelling good shows, but the simpsons has been trash for a min and gets a pass.

That's because more people watch the simpsons than whatever irrelevant show you stan.

Do you dudes understand how the television industry works?

:russ:

Nobody cares what nerds on the internet consider "quality". If no one watches those shows, they get cancelled.

I’m the only one on here that likes the new episodes of The Simpson’s :dwillhuh:

Low key the past couple of seasons have been decent. Not quite great but solid.

With that said. I understood what Apu's intent was in the earlier years of the show also the other ethnic characters were supposed to be foil to the casual racism of Springfield as a whole. Unfortunately Apu did become a stereotype around the time he married his wife and had kids and it went downhill from there. Its not as if though Apu has been a major side character in some years so we won't miss him.

I can't believe this show is still on. I don't understand the controversy. The character has been around for nearly 30 years and I don't recall Indians getting upset with the character throughout the 90s and 2000s.
It's mainly online white SJWs who are mad about it.

what happens when you goto a 7-11 and actually see a person that sounds like Apu? leave in disgust with yourself for making the connection between comedy and reality, then demand that the show be canceled because they accurately depicted a piece of Americana
