simpsons annotation

This article explained what the Simpson's series is, giving the basic ideas and explaining when it was created and the history of it. It stated that the Simpson's was the most viewed cartoon since the Jetson's. It said that the Simpson's series is about a middle class family and reaffirms many myths. And then it goes on to explain some episodes of the series. And while the Simpson's family may be a middle class family, they don't have many of the values that a middle class family would have, like how education is portrayed.

I personally like the Simpson's, so i was able to relate to this article and understand what they were explaining in the beginning. Also, I have seen many of the episodes they explained and helped my understanding. And i also agree that while the Simpson's family is portrayed as a middle class family, they don't really follow the basic ideas of a middle class family in real life.

This article is easy for me to relate to my life because i used to watch the Simpson's a lot and it is easy for me to understand and agree with many of the things this article is saying.

1) Explain a situation when you can relate to the simpon's family.
2) Who is your favorite Simpsons character?
3) How would you explain the Simpsons?
