The decline of the Simpsons π
You're viewing a single thread.
Episode 3 of season 6 is such an outlier. Too much romance for the Simpsons audience apparently.
It's a clip show. Both low rating episodes from the first seasons are clip shows. That's why. Clip shows are typically unpopular, even tho for The Simpsons, each clip is original and not a reair of a previous one. They're "filler" episodes.
