Simpsons Lego.

Why didn't they make these things 20 years ago? :sad:

I thought the same thing. Not just as I would have found it cool, but because the Simpsons is now a completely washed up, strung out show that really needs to just stop. Family Guy too, if they haven't already packed that in.

Looks like the Simpson family got stoned and forgot all about jumping on the Lego scene.

Seriously, why do at least Homer, Marge and Bart look cheech and chonged on the box art/photo.

Damn right. Only Simpsons I enjoy are the old episodes. They need to stop simple as. Its not even remotely funny anymore. Even Homer. Its just pure bollocks. Problem is there's nothing to replace it with, and the networks never show faith in new shows until something extraordinary happens with viewing figures.

But I do want that Lego set.

Nine weeks until I can ride my fucking bike again. BALLS. My hand is now in a custom made splint so at least I can now type, but I can't really go swimming or biking for an absolute age. FUCK CANDLES.

Simpsons is still great !!!
-- I'd say that most people who say "Simpsons is dead" either don't watch the show or are genuine lameoids. :icecream:

I don't watch it regularly at all, but it was on the tv when I went to pick up a sub the other day, and it still seemed just about as good as it ever was. I mean, it was never "roll on the floor" funny. Right from the start, it was always more of a "light chuckle" kind of show. And that was the same vibe I got from it the other day.
Seriously, go back and watch the initial couple seasons, and it won't seem all too wildly different from how it is now. It might be a little more wry nowadays, and it surely doesn't feel as fresh, but I've just never understood the whole "it was so much better before" stance that people take.

I think it went through a phase of being extremely wank, but it's back on track now. The structure of the episodes seems so off nowadays though... It's almost as if the humour's there, but the writers gave up a long time ago.
