"There's been some episodes which are as good as anything displayed upon humankind. Greek drama good, Shakespearian good, Sondheim good, Neil Simon good"

Truer words were never spoken...er...typed. The Simpsons is the best TV show ever. Certainly the most consistantly funny. They properly skewer EVERYTHING. I've even read very conservative Christian periodicals that praise The Simpson's irreverant view of religion because they get it so right.
