Is it me, or has the Simpsons not all that funny anymore? I've been watching it a little recently... and the last three Sunday night shows have been *really* weak. Either I've grown too far from it's humor, or the humor it had just isn't there anymore. The writing seems very weak to me...

On a similar note... can we go back to one cartoon network? Or, can I get both? I like power puff girls just fine, but I Want to see some Herculoids, classic speed racer... All the cartoon network ever seems to show is its own hubbub. Has anyone come out with a 'Hong Kong action' network yet? I think it'd fit well with the 'romance' 'western' 'mystery' 'sci fi' themes... Sometimes I just want to see some guys hopping around muttering..."You killed the master, Drunken Tiger scorpion style!!" Hyah!

We stopped watching The Simpsons over two years ago. We hoped that the writers had moved on to Futurama (sp?), but we were disappointed when that obviously wasn't the case. I almost wonder if the writers went on to Malcom in the Middle, because the humor is very similar.

You might be right... the more surreal elements from the simpsons seem to have bounced over to MITM. I've not seen a lot of futurama, but the ones I have seen were fun.

I tried to like Futurama, but I just couldn't. Didn't click with me I guess.

Understandable.. it's a little harsher, not as huggable as the simpsons. more evil.
