The Simpsons' Is Still The Best Cartoon

Thanks for the post from Noe Castro

When it comes to cartoons, 'The Simpsons' has been one of the best for years. The show has been on for over twenty years. Fortunately, it has remained fresh during its entire run. I watch 'The Simpsons' on directstartv.com whenever I get a chance. It is one of the most engaging shows of any kind.
'The Simpsons' features tons of characters. Outside of the main family, we see different residents of Springfield pop up in different situations. My favorite character on the show is Montgomery Burns. Burns is the old, wealthy owner of the nuclear power plant. Often times, Burns seems to think he lives in the 1920's. He references out of date technology all the time. Another great character on the show is Ned Flanders. Flanders is the religious neighbor of the Simpson family. No matter how much Homer mistreats him, Flanders remains as happy as can be.
'The Simpsons' has been on for so long that you would think they've covered every storyline possible. However, they keep finding more. Unlike most shows, episodes of the 'The Simpsons' rarely relate to one another. Each one stands alone. While the Simpson family appears in every episode, the rest of the town appears sporadically. This enables 'The Simpsons' to offer a lot of different storylines. Given that the show isn't ending any time soon, that is good news for the fans.
