Perhaps the show has gotten a little over played. I think the main problems with most episodes nowadays is two things: The graphics have gotten so much better, it feels like a different show and because lots of episodes will involve a one-diminsional character who is never seen or heard from again. Not that all one-time characters were bad. Some were good and should make comebacks.

I think the creators need to go back and see what made the show great. And I think they're doing just that. Lots of recent episodes have been better and I think the creators realize some things need to change.

Still, being an on-going show after all this time seems to be a badge of honor to the creators so it won't be going away anytime soon.

But when it does, we'll at least be able to look forward to the The Simpsons Movie Sequel before we officialy say goodbye to Springfield.
