The Simpsons
Genre: Comedy
Starring: Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, Yeardley Smith, Harry Shearer, Hank Azaria
“THE SIMPSONS immediately struck a chord with viewers across the country over 20 years ago as it poked fun of itself and everything in its wake. With its subversive humor and delightful wit, the series has made an indelible imprint on American pop culture, and the family members have become television icons.”
The Simpsons is one of those quintessential shows that everyone has to watch at least once. It is difficult to review the Simpsons as it has a huge range of themes and issues presented throughout the series. Running for longer than 10 years and still managing to stay both fresh and funny, the Simpsons is a staple of good television. The series centres on the lives of a typical dysfunctional American family, with their everyday lives being a parody of the lives of the middle class family of the 21st century. The Simpsons utilises parody humour and the unpredicted nature of the main characters in order to create hilarious, often unexpected situations. The fact that the television show has stood the test of time and has exceeded 400 episodes is a testament to the quality of the show.
