The Simpsons at twenty five years on television should be a clear indication of the cultural retrogression of America that something of this work would last so long.
The Simpsons have broadcasted 560 episodes and their staying power is ot about ratings but exectives who reisit change and force feed the public with few new choices. Executive producer Al Jean says he is glad that this program can be taken for granted as a utility company that will always be there and him saying that is exactly what these cheap programs of today have become in the media. Television use to have to come up with cutting edge new programming to air but how that a few companies role the media landscape shit like the Simpsons can air forever.
They can lay claim to ratings increases but if anyone a really believes that many people are watching this cartoon especially after twenty five years of the same bullshit I got some Martian and Moroccan magic carpets to sell your ass. This show can only last all this time because the honchos running the Fox network have advertisers and marketers already tied into the television industrial complex where they don't have to spend more for new quality programming with real actors and people to take roles and demand a million per dollar per episode contract. This show can only last e cause men like Al Jean who role broadcasting do run their operations like a utility afraid to make change and end programs that serve no entertaining purposes with actual talented writings and pretend their institutions from the corporate media like the Simpsons are actually beloved products by the public.
