There's the sharp satire of Disney, long before the show was hosted on Disney+. There are plenty of reasons to recommend this hilarious send-up of Westworld (the 1973 film, not the eventual HBO series), wherein The Simpsons travel to an extremely violent amusement park at the kids' behest. If that is somehow still not enough for you, we've also dug up the best hidden gems and forgotten titles Disney+ has to offer. While planning out your Disney+ binge time, also make sure to take a look at every Marvel and Star Wars title available on the service, along with the best movies from the '80s and '90s. Be warned, though, the image quality is a bit off thanks to the aspect ratio the episodes are presented in. Check them out below, in chronological order, and enjoy your time in Springfield. Luckily, GameSpot has come up with the 16 most essential episodes to revisit.

There are only so many hours in the day, plus now you have a bunch of other Disney stuff to binge on the service. Surely you don't have time to revisit it all, though. That's 662 episodes of the beloved animated series. All 30 seasons of The Simpsons are available to stream. Thanks to Disney's acquisition of 20th Century Fox and 20th Television, it now owns The Simpsons and is wasting no time in making use of the franchise.

Still, while you're wading through the overabundance of TV shows and movies you're now buried in, there's one important piece of the library that can't be ignored. From the entire Disney vault of films, to new original shows like The Mandalorian, the live-action Star Wars series. And judging by Fox’s constant renewals and that Don Hertzfeldt couch gag, The Simpsons may just last beyond all known life and humanity.The arrival of the Disney+ streaming service means there's a lot of new content to watch. Who knows what adventures they’ll have between now and the point at which the show becomes unprofitable. Who in the hell has been watching this show over the past 10 years, anyway, beside Al Jean? (Even Matt Groening has been caught off guard by the fact that his creation is a Guinness record holder.)Īnyway, The Simpsons have come a long way since a John Ford lookalike turned crude sketches into comic gold to allegedly pay off gambling debts. Three-eyed fish and monorails, anyone? Oh, and don’t forget an arsenal of Harvard grads writing by committee.Īnd don’t be alarmed if the episodes mostly come from the first 10 seasons, aka The Golden Age of The Simpsons. The best Simpsons episodes were usually the product of unusual ideas, insanely specific humor, and the realization that animation has no limits in terms of the jokes and stories that can be told. Our panel of Simpsons experts (all graduates of Bovine University) have assembled the very finest in Simpsonia. We could talk about this show’s eternal life on TV, the billions it’s made Rupert Murdoch, or how the show has become damn hard to follow since the 14th … well, 12th season.īut for the sake of expediency, we’re simply here to celebrate Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie’s 30 years of hilarity and share the best episodes of The Simpsons. The bootleg t-shirts and universe of product placements. We could thank Tracey Ullman for getting TV’s first family on the air.

We could marvel at the lucky history of Matt Groening hastily pitching The Simpsons as a series of sketches for FOX. There are about a million quotes, anecdotes, personal histories, and so on that could open this piece. You might remember me from other Consequence of Sound mega-posts such as “A Burns for All Seasons at 20: Cinema’s Citizen Lame?” and “Radiohead: I hate every Kid I see from Kid A to Kid Z.” Today, I have the pleasure of introducing you to one of Consequence of Sound’s latest and greatest efforts in ad-slathered pop culture: a perfectly cromulent ranking of the 30 best episodes of The Simpsons! But where to begin?ĭon’t panic, dear readers! This isn’t a Crisitunity. To celebrate, Consequence of Sound is re-broadcasting live from Springfield by revisiting their picks for the top episodes of The Simpsons, a feature which originally ran in 2017. Thirty years ago today, America’s favorite animated family made their debut on Fox.
