Seth Macfarlane shows are getting really dumb, lowbrow, and actively offensive

Can someone explain to me a line from last Sunday's episode? It's when Bart and Lisa find a tape with Martin's voice on it. He's speaking to recently metamorphosized butterflies: "Now if I may mimic your mother's feeding call..." And then he goes into this FUCKING HILARIOUS old granny voice sing-songing something like "Lawdy lawdy clickety clawdy." Even though I have been laughing to tears since I first heard it and have been repeating it ad nauseum, I have no clue what the hell it means. Does it mean anything in particular? Or is it just funny on the surface, i.e. as an impossible approximation of a butterfly momma's feeding call (does a butterfly momma even have a feeding call?)? Help?

the new york episode was on again sometime in the last six months

But never again will it have the "They put the idiots in Tower 1!" joke.

I fed the baby while watching last night's "Family Guy", and even with jokes like "Welcome to Texas: The Fuck-You State", I couldn't laugh.

^^ definitely one of the best episodes i've seen the last few seasons, the Nelson private eye stuff cracked me up.

never give up on the simpsons. even if you watch an episode for only 5 jokes/hilarious quotes or to see Martin fall off a cliff.
― CaptainLorax, Thursday, 13 March 2008 04:18 (sixteen years ago) link
Wait, that gets cut now? Do they also cut the bit with ppl leaning out thw windows in each tower yelling at each other? I was thinking Ive seen that recently but then I remembered its on my DVD.
― Trayce, Thursday, 13 March 2008 10:02 (sixteen years ago) link
last time i saw that episode that stuff was intact, i'm pretty sure. WTXF are such a bunch of fuck-ups that they'd probably show the wrong ones, though, so it may have been in error.
they haven't shown a good simpsons episode in about a year now. just the last 5 seasons or something.

Why does anyone even bother to still watch new (last 8 years) episodes, anyways?
― Cars That Go Boom (mehlt), Monday, 22 September 2008 23:22 (fifteen years ago) link
Yes, clearly it's a more productive use of one's time to spend that time posting to the internet about how the Simpsons fell off a while back

I mean normally I'm too busy doing homeless outreach to even think about such things, but sometimes I'll do so much homeless outreach that I have to be hospitalized for exhaustion, so that's usually when I'll kick back and get a few chuckles out of a new Simpsons while the IV rehydrates me
― nabisco, Monday, 22 September 2008 23:37 (fifteen years ago) link
Then I return to doing things so much more important and productive than watching shows that aren't as funny as they used to be, like homeless outreach or (as mentioned) posting to the internet about how I don't think certain shows are funny enough to waste my time on anymore

I saw this for the first time only recently (a first time rerun - I havent been watching Tv for a couple years now so ive missed a lot of the last 2 seasons). I actually quite enjoyed that episode, even though all the way through I was all "well obviously Martin isnt dead, I wonder how they'll swing this plot".
― Trayce, Monday, 22 September 2008 23:53 (fifteen years ago) link
There's usually a handful of actually good, funny episodes per season. The butterfly one was good, and the one with Jarmusch wasn't too bad, either. Of course all the other episodes are atrocious, but it seems like only the few good ones make it into syndication anyway.

Xpost: Well, for one, you could spend the time you dedicate to watching post season 10 Simpsons watching Season 1-10 Simpsons. Then at least you'll get the opportunity to watch something that's even worth watching, not drivel that's been brought down so many pegs that it's actually tragic.
Is this really a question of productivity? Did the 15 seconds I spent voicing an extremely mild, insignificant criticism (and on ILX? As if!) become such an offence that it turned into a deep moral predicament? Suddenly you can voice your opinion because you do homeless work, and now complaining on the internet about my on the internet is not only productive, but also a valid criticism?

I've watched new episodes of the simpsons, and I can't make it past more than 5 minutes. I don't know how anyone else does it, really. . .

I think I see the Watchmen Babies as Peanuts trick-or-treaters briefly in the commercial for tonight's episode.

OMG, I think Lisa was an incorrect pedant last night: Homer called himself a "xylophobe" and she said that would involve being afraid of xylophones, when in fact I'm pretty sure it would involve being afraid of wood
