        Only like 3-4 writers were on both shows. Not really many.

      I’m not so sure based on the recent follow up episode.

      I am less scared of Australia evolving to kill people and more of the Australians that survive nature actively trying to kill them.

      The Dutch fight the sea, the Australians fight earth itself.

      No. Because that would make us a hot version of Canada.

        Hadn’t Groening long since left the Simpsons writing room by the time Futurama started?

    Excuse me, but they’re called Matt Groening and David X Cohen. I’d rather you reference Futurama instead, because The Simpsons is zombified and not how they deserve to be remembered.

    Futurama > The Simpsons

    Don’t at me with your steamed hams bullshit.

    Also, Disenchantment was/is awesome as well.

      Yeah, totally concede that Futurama is better and that Simpsons has really declined in quality.

      Leave out the steamed hams, nothing to see here.

      I couldn’t get into Disenchanted, though I did try to stick it out through a good few episodes, just didn’t click with me. Glad you enjoy it.

    Downvoted for annoying title “touch grass”. I’ve never been told “touch grass” in a single scenario that made sense and not to mention I likely spend more time outdoors than anyone who has wrote that to me.

      This time it is actually funny as the way she probably got infected was by collecting grass

      Also they probably got that worm by touching stuff, the right should be “wash your hands” or if you’re cheery “lávese las manos” with a tiny picture of wizard Steve on it somewhere.

    I think the earliest instance of “brain worms” I remember was from an episode of Invader Zim in 2001. Zim is offended at the concept of paying to ride a filthy, poorly maintained bus and shouts at the driver “Have you the brain worms?!”

    Edit: found the video https://youtu.be/BiqTTozWNhA?si=bxNeTnreb77vdd00

    I’m pretty sure Simpsons writers first write and then unleash it in the world, not the other way around.
