From Serge:
UPDATE: Amy Welborn covers this story in Liveblogging the Simpsons....
I don't watch American TV shows, so didn't catch this one. Living in Korea, I miss diners, dilapidated old red barns, and Italian barbers (the only ones who know how to taper), but I definitely do not miss American television.
I do fondly remember The Simpsons, though, as just about the only TV show that managed to balance social criticism and humor with decency.
In my book, it ranks with The Twilight Zone, The Waltons, Dr. Who, and perhaps Hee-Haw as one of Television's rare contributions to Culture.

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
