"The Simpsons" is the longest running cartoon series ever and the humour in it not only makes it unfit at times for children but completely suitable for adults. I also don't understand why would someone hate Simpsons, if they like GTA and hate Simpsons they are being Hypocrite. "Yellow Alien" I see, might have confused themselves Simpsons against Futurama, which BTW is also a good show. Yeah they closed Simpsons on Star World and prior to its time slot are now showing "King Of The Hill" which BTW $ucks.
Will have to get the whole 1-18 seasons of Simpsons from TPB :D

All those who hate Simpsons, please tell me WHY? If you haven't watched it and hate it anyway then please spare youself 3 mins. and watch just one episode, I 'm definitly sure some of you might change ur opinion.:smile:

Simpsons may be awesome n all that depending on your tastes, but it doesn't change the fact that animating those 2D characters is no great feat.

Now when you mention Ratatouille is made on Linux, I say seriously? Pixar is Steve's company. I don't see why they would use Linux to make Ratatouille. Of course I could be wrong. If only someone were to provide some links....

I did try watching it when it used to come on Star World. But even when I saw it recently, it made absolutely NO SENSE to me.

You like GTA?
Then you should've liked Simpsons too, but I think its prespective thing. BTW if it didn't made sense to you then what does? I'm a 21 year old and just Dig Simpsons. Even the first PC game I won in a contest was "The Simpsons:Hit and Run" :D

Naah! Its a free country where everyone has freedom to express 'emselves and question the Expression they want to. Its just that majority of people in the world like Simpsons. It reaffirms ur beliefs that Americans are Stupid, just makes you like 'em the way they are. BTW even my Best Friend hasn't seen and highly unlikely will see Simpsons or South Park.
P.S: Indian Hacking Guru Ankit Fadia has also mentioned in his book prefaces that he loves "The Simpsons":D

The Simpsons was my favorite when I was a kid, now it's South Park. Both are top-notch cartoons. South Park might not make sense to many non-americans, especially those who are not aware of the latest cult-happenning at USA as SP parodies them most of the time. But yes, it must take a Homer to not understand The Simpsons.

Now, isn't this thread more about Red Hat, rather than cartoons?
