I think the current "Simpsons" episodes are kind of losing their flair... I mean, the show started out as a brilliant social satire, but now it's turning into a dumbed-down, "look, Homer is being stupid, it's funny!" (Not that Homer isn't always funny, he is still one of the best TV characters of all time.) So, the newer simpsons get a 6.9, because they still have some very funny bits, but drag for a while. As for the old and middle ones, they get a 9.9.
