The article mentions a reduction of episodes but says nothing about an increase in quality

I have 2 thoughts on the subject.

  1. The last season actually did have an uptick in quality. The Treehouse of Horror was legitimately excellent.
  2. I don't think Julie Kavner's voice can make it 4 more seasons. It's very sad to say, but her voice has clearly suffered from doing Marge all these years.

Yep my immediate thought was "let it die already"

If they were going to learn from their mistakes and make the show funnier again, their opportunity was to do so with season 10.
