Any best way to approach binging The Simpsons? Tackling the entire series seems like an enormous undertaking at this point. I've got some free time over the next couple weeks and just bought Disney+...where should I be focused?
I've seen my fair share of the classic episodes, as well as all of probably Seasons 1-4 on past attempts to watch the whole series. I just want to take a deeper dive.
Also its still worth watching on D+ even with the shitty crop job, right?

We started at season 5 and just kept going sequentially from there. Worth watching with the crop, though they’re fixing that in January supposedly

I started at Season 2 and heard that 11 is when it kinda goes to shit so that's when I plan on stopping. Haven't watched it in a while due to binging Mandalorian, Star Wars, and Watchmen.

Season 2 is where it starts to get really good, that's where I'd begin.

My plan is to have that to go back to once the quality takes a notable dip and we start to get annoyed with it

Because we started a few years ago and neither of us remembers where we left off, and I wanted to watch the Treehouse of Horror from that year so we just kinda kept going

We finally watched the last season of You're the Worst. Holy shit that show dropped off in quality. It was a slog to get through most of the episodes.

I fell off after the proposal at the end of season 3. Just got so tedious.

I haven't read the books or played the game, but I'm finding it very watchable and the casting is great.

Whoa I had no idea that was out already. I'll check it out over the holidays. Big fan of the games and yeah Henry Cavill seemed like a great pick for Geralt.

Not related to the games at all I don't think, at least based on what I read when it first started production.

Did anyone else watch Don't F**k With Cats on Netflix? I thought it was a pretty compelling story but I was pretty annoyed with it by the end. MAJOR SPOILERS Even though everyone involved knew this guy wanted nothing more than notoriety, they still proceeded to make an entire documentary about him. They touched on this at the end of the show but the participants never gave a good reason why they agreed to do it, and then had the gall to accuse the viewing audience of being complicit. It was just so, so stupid.
Also, his mother was in deep denial.

Work in Progress is very good on Showtime. It’s more like an LGBT Curb with a dramatic realism streak than the advertisements which market it as a boring post duplass pay cable show about approaching middle age or whatever.
Mulaney special also very good and walks a very impressive tightrope without falling into cloying and twee or Wonder Showzen amazingly impressively.
This has been a things rango thinks are good.

Mr. Music in John Mulaney's Sack Lunch Bunch is the best character of 2019
