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.

David Bianculli New York Daily News That annual "Treehouse of Horror" outing, and Sunday's season curtain-raiser, prove that "The Simpsons" hasn't lost any steam. Rated: 3.5/4 Sep 20, 2018 Full Review Nick Venable CinemaBlend It's not the strongest season by far, but no episode feels like wasted time. Rated: 4/5 Jun 12, 2018 Full Review Bill Gibron PopMatters Even halfway through their unplanned legacy, the show is still great. Nov 9, 2017 Full Review Cindy White IGN Movies Throughout the season, the series manages the difficult task of being both timely and timeless. Rated: 8/10 Oct 31, 2017 Full Review Josh Kurp Uproxx Just 'cause it's meta doesn't mean it's funny.. Oct 26, 2017 Full Review Read all reviews

David C Siguen siendo chistosos los Simpsons Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Ryker E Improvement over season 11 I enjoyed this season not a gold season though Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 08/04/24 Full Review Jeffrey M The Simpsons Season 12 was an amazing season. The Simpsons Season 12 was a bit better than Season 11, but is nothing close to the golden age ( not counting Season 1 and counting later Season 2). Two quotes that annoy me that are in the Simpsons are "The Simpsons are going to ( name of place )" and " Sideshow Bob is hereby released from jail". When the Simpsons started traveling places, it was pretty cool. Now the Simpsons travel every season, and it is so annoying. Also Sideshow Bob has been released from jail 6 times so far. Doesn't anyone know that when Sideshow Bob gets released from jail he will have an evil scheme. Another thing is now I like the Flanders episodes more. Although I liked When Flanders Failed and Homer Loves Flanders, the newer ( my newer I mean new to this season) Flanders episodes have a lot of heart, and I like that. The best episode in the season is obviously HOMR, while New Kids On The Bleech is my second favorite, and Trilogy of Error has just a really cool format.I give this season a 79%. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/05/23 Full Review johnathon w Another solid season, though not a classic, even if it had classic episodes like "Simpsons on Safari" and "Trilogy of Error". Still an enjoyable watch. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member The first season where I have a problem with more than one episode. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member It's not a show it's a great show Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
