Film Journal 1/28

Today I watched one of my favorite TV shows across the years: The Simpsons, although almost everybody agrees the show just isn't funny anymore. Just a quick thought right now about why it's just not up to the same quality it used to be-- the characters have become unbelievable. So the thing I hope to take from this is that if I write anything with characters, they need to be similar enough to actual people that viewers can relate (or something along those lines), otherwise people don't have a reason to watch.
