Even back in the day, you could feel the writers of The Simpsons seethe whenever another show dared to threaten its throne. They've always been petty.

Even back in the day...
Whats so petty about this. How was a live action show about a dinosaur family going to make people watch less simpsons.
Al let's have sex!
Eh no Peg
Flush sound
it's like they SAW OUR LIVES and put it RIGHT UP ON SCREEN
Come on, Bart's voice is dripping with insincerity. The question is why are they being so passive aggressive about it, they didn't copyright "dysfunctional family"
you are trying too hard now
The difference is they are punching up now
Dinosaurs is kino
It's most likely just banter. If they really dont like competition they would have strong arm the studio executives and force them to a dead slot than make this.
They've always been petty.
Being petty is the meaning of life.
cartoon """"satirizes"""" another cartoon that's doing much better in popularity by painting them as stupid and dumb while they of course are very smart and cool
Is there anything in animation more cringe than this?
It's a good thing you specified "in animation" because you constantly spamming this shit is definitely cringier
its how you let them know you see their moves. the simpsons were ahead of the pack and want to remind people of that
That's not cringe, that's based. Attacking each other out of petty spite is what people are supposed to be doing.
I love this Simpsons fan art.
I need Toastlep in my life
Whats so petty about this
Nothing
OP is being a fag.
normal words but a dinosaur guy
I demand a cameo of those guys in a future season of Smiling Friends. Zach, I know you lurk here sometimes. Get to it, chop chop.
there are people that are still seething about this
we drove 2,000 miles for this?!?
It's hilarious when cartoons make fun of other cartoons.

Shut up tranny
Funny to think that in the 90s Dinosaurs and The Simpsons were actual rivals in popularity
Even MacFarlane seethed
I like how Judge is a good enough sport to voice his characters in parodies
He voiced Hank in a couple of Family Guy episodes.
Let it go, Zach. This is getting sad.
Imagine a world where everyone is just mindlessly clawing and biting and howling and snarling at each other forever.
Doesn't that sound beautiful?
Big deal, MacFarlane seethes about everything.
Mike Judge is probably the only cartoon showrunner who isn't an insufferable manchild.
Woooooooooooooo
zoomers have panick attacks at the 90's when everybody was fun and edgy for the lulz
Dubs of truth, how did he do it? Grilling I imagine, grilling smooths the wretched soul.
I think it's just cross-studio pollination. The animation world is very small, so I imagine that cartoonists work at Titmouse then William St then Disney, and are just busting their coworker's balls.
Married with Children still feels edgier than the Simpsons, even when they were both airing.
He sold Beavis and Butthead to a niche cable channel, pitched King of The Hill to a primetime slot, and made a couple of well-regarded movies before selling a show about his experiences in the tech sector to HBO. He's also friends with the South Park guys who've had a similar career trajectory.
Even back in the day, you could feel the writers of The Simpsons seethe whenever another show dared to threaten its throne.
It's clearly done in jest, anon.
Whats so petty about this.
It's a good natured rib, not petty.
How was a live action show about a dinosaur family going to make people watch less simpsons.
Both were on at the same time, but Dinosaurs had Jim Henson's name and legacy attached to it while Matt Groening probably wasn't as known at the time.
Seethe about what? The Simpsons was already deep in zombie mode by this season. Screeching at Family Guy wouldn't put a dent in anyone's skin.
Zoomers can't imagine a world where FamGuy isn't petty and seething at others despite its successes, so Simpsons must've been seething at other animated shows despite Spumco animators offering up a Ren & Stimpy cameo on a silver platter.
Wait a generation and we'll probably see the same kind of twisted seethe for Roiland's Rick & Morty couch gag.
Schizo bait threads got old a long time ago and don't even offer a glimmer of amusement anymore
Go amuse yourself by kissing a speeding train.
Simpsons must've been seething at other animated shows
Objectively correct.
Didn't they mock Ren & Stimpy multiple times?
It was definitely more raunchy
only amerimutts unironically use zoomer
Yeah and it’s Seth
