  • My pick would be The Simpsons. I have watched it a lot growing up, but only at the beginning of this year did I do a full 35 season binge watch.

    And any opinion you find online boils down to classic Simpsons was great, modern Simpsons sucks.

    And I disagree with this premise. Because fundamentally The Simpsons Isn’t one show, it’s actually three. You have the classic era, then the transitional era, and the modern era. and it is that transitional era where I think the show stumbled the most.

    Nowadays, though, I think the show is pretty good. Sure, the classic era might have been better on average, but I think it managed to pull itself out of the slump. And I still laugh at jokes even in the worst episodes.
