Don't celebrate when you're promised the job.  Don't celebrate when you're actually on the job working.  Don't celebrate when you get a paycheck.  Save your celebration for when the check doesn't bounce.

The world sees sense. Now, we're just waiting for people on the show to do the same. Need I say, I fully agree with the article (though I would likely have used harsher words).

(Also, the picture featuring Homer and Death is wonderful.)

I'm just a man, I'm not a hero
I'm just a boy who had to sing this song
I'm just a man, I'm not a hero
I - DON'T - CARE

We'll carry on
We'll carry on
Though you're dead and gone, believe me
Your memory will carry on
We'll carry on
And though you're broken and defeated
Your weary widow marches on.

Wow, that reflects my feelings perfectly.

And I have also long held that no one person/thing is responsible for the show's stumble.  But like the article, I'm optimistic about the future.  I think that they've really turned a corner after Season 11 and 12, that while the past two seasons have been bland at times, and even bad at times, it's a commendable transition.

Yeah, it is a good article.  It's nice to see that it's not just us that's worried about the direction of the show.

Trace said he didn't see himself as an icon, but wanted to be a logo. Frank settled for being a font.

A very interesting article. Maybe some of the writers and producers should read this...
