Is "The Simpsons" show actually appropriate for little kids?

It is said that "The Simpsons" a kid series and not a grown-ups TV show. I couldn't disagree more. Today I want to share my views with you and I would like to see yours.

Before telling anything further, I believe this has to do with Simpsons freshness. Before 1989 and the start of the show, all people believed than any animated character is a kid's cartoon. "The Simpsons" added a completely new category in cartoons, like Prodigy in music. This kind of cartoon has animation as any other cartoon type with a difference. Characters' personality are more human, with bursts, sad moments even curses. A real life scenario.

"The Simpsons" offspring "South Park" proves me true. Or you think "South Park" is appropriate for a kid? "The Simpsons" show an absolutely huge demographic. I watch Simpsons with my parents and my grandma and all burst to laughters. Some of the viewers may be kids.

The majority of children and even some young adults can't get all the jokes. There are references in history, media and 50's, 60's, 70's pop culture icons and events. Sometimes even me, don't get them at all. I have to google them and I laugh 2 hours after!

Summarizing, would you think that a kid show would produce entire episode on medicinal marijuana? A show that implies sex, satires a lot of adult themes and topics, deals with some moral and political issues like homosexuality or gun ownership. Be serious.

"The Simpsons" show was never intended for kids, even remotely. The Simpsons isn't, never was, and never will be a kid's show. Share your ideas with me at ascoencorp@gmail.com.
