The Simpsons: Season 20
$49.98
The Simpsons have been around for more than 20 years now and it`s safe to say that if you ever surfed your television you came across them. It paved the way for other animated comedy shows of its genre, it has more than 400 episodes to its credit, won a few awards, it`s been on air since seemingly forever and there`s plenty more to say about it. There have been some complaints about the decline of the show ever since the beginning the 00`s. It`s hard to pick a season where the decline really began but it is true that the show is not as good as it was I`ll admit it, but I think it`s still good and I still enjoy it. Since some time each season has a few great episodes mixed with a few good ones and some not-so-good one, season 20 is no different.

Now I won`t be doing an episode list because some other reviewers will take care of that. But I really liked a few episodes like "Eeny Teeny Maya Moe" in which Moe has a new romance, "No Loan Again, Naturally" was great with Ned Flanders helping the Simpsons trough difficult time as they reached bankruptcy and this season`s "Treehouse of Horror XIX" was very good and the allusion to Charlie Brown was brilliant. The worst episode of this season is perhaps the worst in the show`s history "Four Great Women and a Manicure" , another Simpsons twist on history but this one proves to be the worst yet. The season was mostly good.

You will notice a change in the visual style of the show, it is pretty much the same but somehow it's different. It features more technology which turns out to be very funny and the visual style has changed a little it's like the show has gotten a facelift, and I don't think it hurt after so many years you're bound to change at some point. You will also notice the new title sequence for the show, I like it but I miss Homer's scream from the original! The Simpsons are now in HD and it looks very good.I`d like to think that the box of this season will be different than season 11 and 12`s accordion style but no one really knows now. They should really consider doing something else or return to the older boxes format I never hear anyone complain about those. I know how they want to do an eco-friendly packaging but it`s obviously not a hit with most fans, it didn`t look so good and I didn`t like how it scratched my discs and I`m sure I wasn`t the only one.

Season 20 is not bad really but it just doesn't compare well to the earlier seasons. I don't laugh as I much as I used to while watching the show but I still find it entertaining and worth watching. There were some very good episodes and this season was better than a few of the previous ones. I don't know why they are releasing this one ahead of the others (13-19), yes it's the 20th anniversary but still this will make some fans angry. I'll give season 20 three stars it was a good season. So will I be buying? Well yes because it's still better than no Simpsons in my opinion and if you don't like the show at this point then don't bother with it that's all.

$49.98
To the critics who say the Simpsons has lost it I say even an average recent episode while not rivalling the genius of some of the classic ones is still way funnier than the majority of the so called comedy shows that are inflicted on us.
