Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Although The Simpsons still has its defenders, one infamous episode indicated the end of the show’s famous Golden Age. The Simpsons has been around for 35 years and over 760 episodes, so it is fair to say that the animated family sitcom is doing fine.
"The Principal & The Pauper" Signaled The End Of The Simpsons' Golden Age The Controversial Episode Started The Show’s Gradual Critical Decline Close The Golden Age of The Simpsons began with season 3, episode 17, “Homer at the Bat.” Although the show was already popular with critics and viewers at this stage, this relentlessly funny outing saw the series experiment with a new style of comedy.
Why "The Principal & The Pauper" Is So Controversial Among Simpsons Fans The Episode’s Many Major Retcons Didn’t Sit Right With Everyone The problem was that viewers had grown attached to Seymour over the years thanks to classic outings like season 5, episode 19, “Sweet Seymour Skinner's Baadasssss Song.”
In an interview with Rolling Stone, The Simpsons co-creator Matt Groening called the episode a “Mistake” years after he conceded that it was one of his least favorite outings in a season 9 DVD commentary. Fans online and critics echoed similar sentiments, saying that the revelations about Skinner felt like a betrayal of the character.
