This long-running animated comedy focuses on the eponymous family in the town of Springfield in an unnamed U.S. state. The head of the Simpson family, Homer, is not a typical family man. A nuclear-plant employee, he does his best to lead his family but often finds that they are leading him. The family includes loving, blue-haired matriarch Marge, troublemaking son Bart, overachieving daughter Lisa and baby Maggie. Other Springfield residents include the family's religious neighbor, Ned Flanders, family physician Dr. Hibbert, Moe the bartender and police chief Clancy Wiggum.

The Simpsons has always had some sick humor, but I don't remember it being this consistently cruel and, worse, generic. Go to Full Review Brian Tallerico HollywoodChicago.com Sep 30, 2012

Maybe there's a second wind for this show yet. Or should that be third, fourth, or fifth wind? Go to Full Review Rob H. Dawson TV Equals Nov 13, 2017
Let's just hope that The Simpsons, going forward, picks back up at least a little, and that this isn't an indicator of the overall quality of the 24th season. Go to Full Review Josh Kurp Uproxx Oct 26, 2017
Remember when Anne Hathaway played Jenny in season 20's "The Good, the Sad and the Drugly," or Sarah Silverman as Nikki in season 21's "Stealing First Base"? Me neither... Go to Full Review Chris Swanson What Culture Oct 3, 2012

Compared to the "meh" premiere of South Park, it's certainly better than most of what's on TV. Go to Full Review Teresa Lopez TV Fanatic Sep 30, 2012

stephenpaul C @ash20261234567890 Sep 13, 2026 22 funny Fox episodes. See more diogo13 T @Tua_mera Jul 11, 2026 Uma temporada morna que expõe a dificuldade da série em encontrar ideias genuinamente novas para os seus personagens. Entre tramas recicladas e piadas que nem sempre funcionam, o show entrega um entretenimento apenas mediano que vive sob a sombra do seu passado. See more TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Dec 27, 2025 The Simpsons season 24 shows some signs of stumbling, with moments that feel less consistent and occasionally repetitive compared to earlier seasons. After 24 years, the challenge of keeping stories fresh is evident, and some episodes rely on familiar tropes or "copy and paste" moments rather than innovative storytelling. That said, the season still delivers enough of the family’s charm and humor to remain enjoyable. Characters like Grandpa Simpson and the extended cast maintain their appeal, providing familiarity and grounding for fans. While the creative consistency may waver, the show still manages to offer laughs, clever satire, and relatable family dynamics. Season 24 isn’t perfect, but it remains a decent continuation of the long-running series, balancing nostalgia with occasional fresh ideas. See more Abdulmohsen A @RT47416480 Jul 14, 2025 Best show ever must see See more johnathon w @Hoppynsc Nov 19, 2022 Another solid season that doesn't really do much, outside finally exploring some side characters like Carl, Homer's co-worker, in "The Saga of Carl". Still a fun watch throughout. See more May 17, 2021 There were a couple bad one or two memorables and a lot of decent ones. See more Read all reviews
