By that factor alone you can't possibly consider it one of the best shows of all time - way too much weak content overall. You can easily argue that seasons 3-9 of The Simpsons is some of the greatest television ever produced. Almost nothing comes close to that. The rest of the show ranges from being just okay or semi watchable to being very, very bad. So say seven-ish great seasons out of 30+? I wonder how people would feel about The Simpsons today if they had ended it after like ten seasons and a movie. --- "We know things can move faster than the speed of light because liberal tears are on the ground before something offensive even happens" - Coffeebeanz <cite>Ultima Dragon posted [p:906244523] in The Simpso...

jpenny2 08/04/18 1:23:47 PM #11:	At one point that would have been true, but like people are saying, only a third or less of the show can actually be considered great.

LordFarquad1312 08/04/18 1:57:14 PM #18:	Depends on your point of view. Following your argument, can you truly say it's the best when it has 9 good seasons and the other 20 are kind of bad?
