Sunday begins the new season of the Simpsons!

Let's face the cold, sad facts, people. We have taken the best television show ever made...one that's so far into the Hall of Fame we often forget its brilliance ... -- "The Simpsons" -- for granted. It is now entering its 14th season, the longest-running sitcom on television. Even when the show has had down years, it's still been funnier than almost anything else across the dial... Maybe critics are slobbering over the likes of "The Sopranos" too frequently and not spending enough time celebrating the genius that is "The Simpsons." Any show that produces only a shrug of the shoulders from die-hard fans when it's not repeatedly pants-wettingly funny is ultimately the one with impossibly high standards. Everything else just pales in comparison.

Jessie, our Sunday nights are once-again planned events.
