	Who turned The Simpsons into a cartoon? By Chris Suellentrop
		To celebrate the milestone, Entertainment Weekly picked the top 25 episodes in Simpsons history: Twenty-four of them come from 1997 or before, meaning that only one comes from the past five seasons (which, not coincidentally, is the time period from which EW selected its "Worst Episode Ever").
		An incredible anxiety of influence hovers over Simpsons writers, who realize that they are judged not by the standards of network television, but by the standards of their own show's golden age.
		The newspaper also asked Simpsons staff members to select their 15 favorite moments and episodes, and only one person (Al Jean, the show's executive producer) chose something that happened within the past five years.

		The Simpsons may be sneaking a peek at the shark but they have not vaulted it.
		The decline of the greatest show on television is both sad and inevitable...The Simpsons JTS has been slow but the line was crossed in an episode in which Apu's mother visits from India to find out why Apu is not returning home for his arranged marriage.

	The Simpsons
		For everyone at ''The Simpsons,'' the family remains the center of gravity: sitcom archetypes who convene for our benefit every Sunday evening on their living-room couch, just as we find ourselves on ours.

		The actors who play the Simpson family -- Julie Kavner (Marge), Dan Castellenata (Homer), Yeardley Smith (Lisa) and Nancy Cartwright (Bart)-- were dispersed in a wide semicircle behind microphones, their scripts on stands in front of them like musical scores.

	CNN.com - Review: 'The Simpsons' hit the road - Oct. 16, 2003
		The Simpsons: Hit & Run is a mission-based driving adventure that takes place in Springfield, the Simpsons' hometown.
		In total, there are more than 50 driving and on-foot missions, and roughly 40 familiar locations such as the Springfield Church, the Simpsons' residence, the Kwik-E-Mart convenience store and Springfield Elementary, Bart and Lisa's school.
		Because the game was penned by The Simpsons writers and voiced by the cast, fans of the series can expect all kinds of gags and countless references to the TV show, such as a floating Drink Duff blimp overhead or a "Vote for Quimby" billboard along the road.
