But rewatching it recently, it really isn't top-tier golden age Simpsons. It feels very strawman-ish and mean spirited and the story is just a series of loosely connected sketches that end too abruptly. Aged badly, all in all.03 Sep 2026 02:37 +0000at://did:plc:5kcliyleeruxfgfb7kfxvh7j/app.bsky.feed.post/3mulg74vavs23https://bsky.app/profile/alastairft.bsky.social/post/3mujxhhhs6k22Did a very elaborate attack for a stranger this art fight just gone; 3 characters, full scene, comic layout etc, but when I posted it, I just vaguely got the feeling they didn't really like it.
