I think these are all from that one episode where William Eggleston guest-starred.

The Simpsons has never been the most visually inventive show, but I've always liked their commitment to the bizarre pastel color palette. There are some good scenes in this insta.

I love The Simpsons! I haven't watch The Simpsons in over ten years. I'm confused.

these are so beautiful. i have an idea that right now the dominant aesthetic is a question of perfect curation and this is so well put together.

Man, I loved the Simpsons! And… yeah, I haven't watched the Simpsons in about a decade! I learned pretty quickly that I was not missing anything, which is the worst part, given that for a few bright shining years it was perhaps the highlight of American broadcast TV.

It's telling that basically all of those images are from Old Simpsons.

I've always loved Springfield. Mostly always sunny, warm temperate climate. Not too many bugs, except for those panda-virus-transmitting mosquitoes found in Krusty-saurus toys.

Every day feels like a lazy summer Saturday afternoon.
That being said, I wanted to point out this iconic one.

I was re-watching "You Only Move Twice" yesterday and was marveling at how all the effort went into creating such beautiful scenes when nothing could really be reused.

Anyway, I love this post.
