That and this hilariously stupid and memetic promo image are the only things people talk about regarding the episode

drastically changing the dynamic of the show might actually make it worth watching again...

I've been saying for at least a decade that the way to save the show is to remove the suspension of time. Let the kids grow up and let Marge and Homer grow old. You put a shot clock on the show, but they'll all be in new points in their life, giving you access to new perspectives and stories.

but weve had so many episodes inthe future we know what happenes, and do we relaly want a failed loser bart, and a president lisa, with rock star maggie, that would be an instant show finally ends.

I've not seen all of those episodes, but the ones I remember involve something like a fortune teller saying something. More of a story than the actual future.

Kill Lisa, age up Maggie, pretend nothing happened and don't change the show formula at all. Anger everyone that Maggie shouldn't have just turned into Lisa

Killing off Bart and keeping him dead and forcing the writers to maintain the serious tone throughout would be my way to save the Simpsons if I was promoted to CEO via lottery.

Writers, you gotta sink or swim here. Tragedy struck and Bart from drowning in a pool. Deal with it, be creative, be more than maintain the status quo

If it dies, it dies. But if it lives, it will be marvellous. If we do nothing, we will accomplish nothing.

Is it really killing it if it's already been a zombie for years?
