    This film noir portrait of corruption and morally-compromised obsessions stars Welles as Hank Quinlan, a crooked police chief who frames a Mexican youth as part of an intricate criminal plot. Charlton Heston plays an honorable Mexican narcotics investigator who clashes with the bigoted Quinlan after probing into his dark past. A memorable

    The first season of my favourite show. My favourite episodes are ‘Bart the General’ (Just a fun and rewatch able, yet slightly ridiculous episode) and ‘Some Enchanted Evening’ (Just hilarious). This season is very Bart-centric, which is definitely not a bad thing, Bart is surely entertaining character whose antics make me laugh A LOT. Lisa is your bland ‘smart girl’ who is very annoying.The first season of my favourite show.

Homer is actually a likeable character who has a heart but still makes you laugh. Marge and Maggie are just there. Marge never really kept me watching in the series and was quite boring. And well Maggie is a baby.

    Amazing season for an Amazing show!    … Expand

    Simpsons has been influenced by TV and theaters classics, but with all of this adding acid humor (which would be better worked in posterior seasons) were watershed in TV cartoons history. Had influenced absolutely EVERYTHING that comes after. Firsts seasons counted with more drama and depth in its stories and characters personality development. Such a classical

    The Simpsons are a series of which I've since the beginning (1 season onwards) and up to last seasons have enjoyed much of it. While I want to have a good and big finish series, I think that we must expect many adventures over part of the Simpsons by now

    Entertaining classic TV show. However, it's nowhere near as funny as many people make it out to be and some episodes, especially in the later series, are just terrible.

    "The Simpsons" is both a challenge and a delight. It's also that rarest of TV fauna, a cartoon show with levels of mirth for every brain and pair of eyes in the family. [12 Jan 1990]

    There is, admittedly, a fine line between being hilariously perceptive and just plain, even objectionably, silly. While habitually teetering on that line, 'The Simpsons' has shown a remarkable ability to come down on the right side most of the time.

    [The show] has a good deal of savvy wit.... The Simpsons, however, is strangely off-putting much of the time. The drawings are grotesque without redeeming style or charm (characters have big beady eyes, beaklike noses and spiky hair), and the animation is crude even by TV's low-grade standards.
