The Simpsons: Wad Goals (2021)
Season 32, Episode 13
A promising beginning
21 June 2021
This one starts off quite nicely - it has an old-school feel to it. But quickly things flatten out to the bad-quality 2020/2021 Simpsons that we are so used to by now. It's scary to see that the viewers don't really have any expectations for the new shows.

This one and the two previous episodes are just grey mash. There aren't many gleams of light in season 32 this (ep. #13) far: you can count them using the fingers in your one hand - even if you lost half of them in a sawing accident.

The biggest problems are bad writing and the acting: the jokes are not funny or then there aren't any jokes - I'm not sure which - and the voice acting... Harry Shearer, Hank Azaria and Julie Kavner sound tired. After over 30 years they actually might be a bit tired, come to think of it. Dan Castellaneta and Yarley Smith sound like they're still up to par.

Another huge problem in the cast is that Dr. Hibbert, Bumblebee Man etc. Are no more. When they changed the actors, it just doesn't work. Even Martin doesn't work anymore, even though they changed the actor because the great Russi Taylor died. The legendary characters cease to be in the new episodes. Even the gay latino isn't voiced by Hanz Azaria anymore. That pretty much sums it all up: the worst season ever.
