[QUOTE="SaintsFan_Webby, post: 122708"] [i]South Park[/i] now has such an early edge over [i]The Simpsons[/i]. I hated the early series, still do, but they got to about series 4 they started to introduce bucket loads of cutting satire. From about series 8 onwards this has reached a point that [i]The Simpsons[/i] can no longer touch. Groening seems to utilise plenty of celebrities and current issues, but doesn't really mock them. Part of the problem comes from [i]The Simpsons[/i] being seen as a childrens' cartoon, but unless he has the courage to break away from this image then the show is going to carry on going downhill very rapidly.
