[kj] FW: Re: who hates the simpsons.....

[Christof hamille]

I will admit that I do not watch South Park regularly.  But when I do I'm 
still surprised that they still pull it off.  Now maybe that is because I 
don't catch it on a regular basis AND/OR they are on cable so their humor 
can be a little more blue.

But I still have to hand it to them.

The Critic was good.

And there was also Home Movies, the Venture Brothers, etc.
