Well, to get the bad taste of the modern day Simpsons out somewhat, let's do something positive. To most people, when season 9 really started (Mike Scully took over), people said the Simpsons were in a decline. When Al came back, many people think the show REALLY went into a decline. But, seeing some of the episodes they run, not ALL of them were bad. Sure, every black moon, there's a "KTAAR" "That 90's Show" "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad Marge" and so on, but on every blue moon, there's a "HOMR," "Trilogy of Error" "Eeny Teeny Maya Moe" and so on.

So, seeing as many people here hate the Simpsons nowadays, tell me, is there ANY good/your favorite post-golden age Simpsons episodes you like to share?

For me, I say these are worthy of a watch (I'm going on what I have seen)...

Any non-Scully season 9 episodes
Natural Born Kissers
Marge Simpson in: "Screaming Yellow Honkers"
Skinner's Sense of Snow
HOMR
Day of the Jackanapes
Trilogy of Error
Moe Baby Blues (Just for the direction)
Springfield Up
Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind
Dial 'N' for Nerder
No Loan Again, Naturally (yeah, the plot sucks, but at least they tired)
Eeny Teeny Maya Moe

There's more if I can watch them. So, care to share something GOOD with modern day Simpsons?

Midnight RX from season sixteen, I always thought was a great episode and one of my favorites from the later Simpsons seasons. Mobile Homer and Goo Goo Gai Pan, were also strong episodes from season sixteen. Actually now that I think about it, season sixteen was a pretty strong season overall.

I liked season eighteen too quite a bit, thought that was a great season.

they turned into crap after season 9, but for some reason I still watch them

from time to time they somehow manage to make a great episode though

Despite a decline in quality from the dizzying heights of the classic years, I think The Simpsons is still a great show. Sure, some bad episodes sneak in there (sometimes with alarming alacrity, especially in Seasons 11 and 18), but the good still outweighs the bad to me. I think the show's been on a pretty good roll since about mid-Season 19 to be honest. Maybe I'm not as hard on new episodes as I should be, but if I'm entertained by "The Great Wife Hope" I can't hold the fact that it's not LETS against it

Just my two cents

most of the new episodes have been either mediocre or awful

I agree with Green Man, the Simpsons just isn't the same anymore, the new episodes suck IMO.

As with South Park. TV shows always face the inevitable destiny of jumping the shark...
