TV Season Review: The Simpons Season 21


Season 21 of the Simpsons is done, and might I say that this was a pretty fun ride, the Simpsons definitely brought back there A-Game this season, and proved that the Simpsons can still be a great and powerful show.
The season starts with "Homer the Whopper" which was in my opinion, the best season premier I've seen in a long time, it really brought back lots of laughs and memories, then the second episode "Bart Gets a Z" was another very solid and well balanced episode, it certainly had allot of great laughs, like most the season.
However, the season's best lies far higher than "Homer the Whopper" or "Bart Gets a Z", we got to see Kelsey Gleamer in one of his best appearances as sideshow bob in "The Bob next Door" a hilarious face-off referenced episode, the creative "To Servial with Live" which was hilarious in every way you could think of, "Judge Me Tender" which was a hilarious season finale, and other solid hilarious episodes include "The Squirt and the Whale", "Chief of Hearts", "Oh, Brother Where Bart Thou" and allot more episodes that brought the show back to it's prime.
But not all episodes where completely powerful, there were some passable to decent episodes as well, such as "Rednecks & Broomsticks" which was a bit enjoyable, "Pranks and Greens" which was decent, but a disappointment, and "The Color Yellow" which had a strong plot, but the humor was not there.
Overall, I'd say this season hit the show's best, or almost did, but there is no complaining that this was truly the comeback we have been waiting for, and truly, it's the best season I've seen since season 8, that's 13 years and the Simpsons have not been this good, I hope next season will be as big of a winner as this season, I have my hopes up.
