I have been hearing a LOT of talk about how the Simpsons are aging and are not as funny as they used to be. Well, that's not what the producers of the Simpsons think. FOX and The Simpsons have agreed to a huge new deal to bring the show to Cable TV for the first time in it's history and the deal is worth more than half a billion dollars and is expected to last at least 10 years. 

In addition to FOX, the show will now air on FXX beginning in August and it will debut with a MASSIVE continous 12 day marathon of each of the 500 Plus episodes.

I am a huge fan of the show because of it's success and I really don't want it to end soon, but I think this is taking it a bit too far.

I live in the Netherlands where they don't air it, but this sounds insane. The Simpsons is a great show, but to put so much time and money in it seems a bit ridiculous to me.

Jeez, that is going a bit far. Then again, other shows have managed to do just that. One Piece has been going on for almost forever, though, I'm not sure if that counts, as that probably has not been on American TV for anywhere near as long as in Japan, or possibly for as long as The Simpsons. Don't get me wrong though, I still love The Simpsons. I feel as if it is quite an excellent series, though it is definitely losing its luster. As I get older, my tastes are also changing, so I slowly like it less and less as the years go by. When it ends though, it will be sad to see it go.

I don't think it's ever going to do as good as it did back in the beginning. It looks like they're trying to beat a dead horse.
