The great thing about the Simpsons is that besides making us laugh, it has a background that goes beyond simply making us have some laughter, the psychological overturn and social issues are handled with great care and detail.
The criticisms come and go not only from the writers and producers of this animated series, but from many people inside and outside the industry, they have called them satanic, which are bad because of the image they project as a family, which are a bad example and stop counting, but none of this has stopped the Simpsons, on the contrary they always have something more to show, they are already more than 20 years on screen, the Simpsons represent for many more than an animation, it represents the reality Socialism of the United States, a criticism of it but at the same time a mirror of the family often quite common.
I believe that the criticisms of the Simpsons towards society more than destructive is a teaching, of how we are turning our society, and at the same time laugh at our own and marked reflection is good enough to accept and improve in many aspects, in this rests the great trajectory and years on the screen of this animated series.

Attraction for the daily life of this family

Homer's relationship with his family has ups and downs, but this does not change much in one aspect or general plan, his love of food, and liquor; the successive fights and strangulations to Bart, the envy that he has to his neighbor Flanders, among many others, seems not to bore the audience, in fact all this environment makes grow and grow more fans of the Simpsons.
Even characters like Lisa with her brilliant ideas and great intelligence, the follies of her brother Bart and the apparently monotonous life of Maggie, along with the marital problems that can have in some chapters Marge and Homer, are a very big attraction, because of Somehow he focuses on family values and Homer always manages to maintain a fairly stable and romantic relationship with his partner. Very interesting for any type of audience, the plots and adventures of this family never bore their fans.

As a social reflex the Simpsons show the desire or the American dream, something very similar to other families of animated series, the Simpsons grow and develop over the years, not only in their physical appearance (animation) but personal growth, despite that the years do not go through them, its best development period was in the first ten seasons, since in my opinion the last ones have not had a content as voracious as the previous ones, although this is a series that is already alone, it is Say no longer need such a big effort for their evolution, let's say they are at their point of maturity, I do not know if it is the end of the Simpsons, because there are many animated series that are giving a lot of talk, the truth is that I never They will bore and will always have a space in the hearts of their fans.

From what I have seen, interviews have been made with his creator Matt Groening, and he has said that a farewell script for the Simpsons has not yet been written, so cheer, there is still Simpson for a while. The truth is that there are already 21 seasons for this animated series, and I am sure that it will always have its peak moments as there is always much to show in the social aspect.

The Simpsons revolutionized the animated series

Different topics that for fear of being treated or that were considered taboo were not something that the Simpsons did not count on, their period advancement personally feel that is what has given them a brilliant trajectory, for example? Debates about vegetarianisms, which for the 90's were subjects that were little treated or taken into account, the Simpsons had already touched them, that is, Lisa in a chapter discovers that all the meat on her plate comes from murdered animals, which makes her Make the decision to become a vegetarian, this is very close to your family, but it showed how to deal with the values found while still being fun.

Chapters with strong criticism of beauty contests and child exploitation long before films like Little Miss Sunshine, including such sensitive issues as gun control and buying them as if they were sweets, long before movies that touched on this theme, Simpson was ahead of his time and even in many chapters as if by magic or clairvoyance it seems that they were ahead of the future. Discussing topics such as plastic surgery, environmental issues, health issues such as anorexia or obesity and even gay marriage have made the Simpsons what they are today.

The Simpsons have endured over the years

Normally it happens with many series, which go on the air and eventually expire and stop transmitting, the opposite has happened with the Simpsons, becoming a product that would last through the years, through dedication to each detail, the topics to be discussed and the good and intelligent humor. Irreverent, ironic and sarcastic the Simpsons defined the humor of a golden age for television where the social reflection shows schools as dungeons of ignorance, corrupt politicians, incompetent policemen, celebrities totally addicted to substances beyond the law, lively and incredibly insensitive, where the most bad person is the most millionaire owner of a nuclear plant managed by clumsy cigars. I could continue because each character has its detail and personality, the Simpsons did not invent mockery and irony towards society through television but managed to turn it into a product capable of lasting over the years, a product that has everything to be a success.

The kings of the KIDULTS

The television had one or another attempt for this market as in the case of the picapiedras, where in some chapters are discussed issues of marriage, adoption, etc; but the Simpsons are the kings of the KIDULTS, they are their strong point, their seal, and although the Simpsons is very attractive even for the youngest ones, it turns out that those who ended up adopting this series were the adults. The KIDULTS is the culture of the adult with the heart of a child and pocket with money capable of buying expensive toys and opening the way to the industry and culture of this kind of animations. In my sections of "more than animated series" I have even talked a lot about this, and how the animated series of today have a much more striking background for adults.

The Simpsons hand in hand with pop culture

The Simpsons has always been characterized by generating parodies or tributes of movies, songs, advertising spots, series, novels and even music videos, mockery of pop culture that could often be considered as "pop junk" paying homage to Spielberg films, Coppola, Scorses, Kubrick and many more. For many, as for the FOX network and its advertising spot "the Simpsons are a religion, and we are still their faithful."

A classic of the Simpsons and their contributions to television is the appearance of stellar characters, cameos of famous, being this now a very common practice in television programs, which is now synonymous with status, appear in the Simpsons is something very coveted by the famous stars.

Predictions in the Simpsons

It is no secret to anyone that the Simpsons usually have very precise guesses about some things, among many of the predictions are:

• 1 The fall of the twin towers

During the chapters of the city of N & Y vs. Homer, reference is made to the fall of the twin towers, four years later it would become a horrible reality.

• 2 The win from Germany to Brazil

This happened in the chapter "you do not have to live like a referee" where precisely the match was 7-1. What madness does not?

• 3 Google control over the world

This can be seen in the holiday chapter of the future past.

• 4 Ebola in Springfield

In a chapter Marge suggests Bart to read a book called George the curious and the Ebola virus, for the time in the caricature was not known much about this disease, but today generates fears in the world.

• 10 Cameras Go PRO

There really are many more, the list is long, if you remember someone else can comment, the truth is that the Simpsons are a religion and are already an important part of our culture, without a doubt the kings of animated series for many years, the dads of all, they have opened the way to many more with a very similar mood.
