The Simpsons is falling out of the cultural zeitgeist.
Gen Z has barely an idea of it. What does this mean (and for Gen X and elder Millenials
@rabble ?)
Having a shared reality and narrative is long over IMO. (Its another meta rabbit hole to unpack)
Simpsons was very Gen X. Sardonic, sarcastic, and a bittersweet look at America its self. But optimistically.
Sitcoms had happy endings.
Even cartoon ones.
Maybe it's reflective that it's slipping out of cultural narrative.
