Saying Goodbye to The Simpsons

It's kind of tough to write a piece on a TV show that has been on this earth longer than I have been breathing.  The Simpsons has been around since 1989!

It has yet to be confirmed officially, however, there has been a lot of speculation that this will in fact be the last season ever for the Simpson family.  Some people might react to this news and be shocked that the show is still on the air, others may react a little differently... I literally saw someone tear up.  However you take the news it is amazing that a TV series has been able to go this long.  It really has made the impossible, possible. 

Not only is it impressive that the show has been on for so long but how about the wide demographic of fans.  Fans can be as young as a 3 year old just interested in the bright colors or the old person who enjoys it because of the references that they can understand.  The Simpsons is a show that everyone can watch and relate to at some level, which is every writers dream to accomplish. 

The writers of the show seem to want to spice things up as they say farewell.  If you didn't hear I hate to be the one to tell you but apparently one of the main characters in The Simpsons will die in the last season! It's sad to hear that and it's also sad that this effects me so deeply.  I mean who can the writers kill, not Homer, not Bart, not Maggie!

The Simpsons is a classic show and will be forever apart of pop culture.  It has made it's mark on all of it's fans and inspired many other shows that are currently higher in ratings.

Dumb & Dumber 2 to be Released 2014

Anyone who has seen the first Dumb and Dumber movie would definitely be excited hearing that a sequel is being made called Dumb and Dumber To (No typo). The even better news is that they have the original writers and the two same actors playing Harry and Lloyd (Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels). The two stars of the movie tweeted a picture of themselves just this week in character ready to go.

The original Dumb and Dumber was released in 1994 and it is still, twenty-years later, brought up as one of the funniest movies to come out. The acting was incredible and it shows you just how hilarious stupidity can really be. Jim Carrey has kind of taken a break from comedy and it's very nice to see a legend back in action making a sequel to a classic film.

I think its appropriate to mention in this blog post that there was prequel made in 2003 called "Dumb and Dumberer". I found the movie pretty funny, however, it was not received well by critics and not even comparable to the original.

Oh yeah, i forgot to mention that Jeff Daniels even said that the Dumb and Dumber To (the new one) is going to make the original film look lame. If that doesn't set the standards I don't know what will. But as a fan all i have to do is wait patiently and be the judge myself.

If you haven't seen the movie... watch the movie. But if you don't have the time here's a clip.
