I’ll be honest with you. My dad let me watch some pretty questionable stuff when I was growing up. While my wife told me that she watched wholesome programs like The Cosby Show, and Full House, I was watching Married… with Children, and New York Undercover (which is still, by the way, my favorite Dick Wolf show).
But, one show that I’m REALLY glad that my dad let me watch – which my wife was absolutely FORBIDDEN to see – was The Simpsons. Yep, the show that Barbara Bush once famously called “the dumbest thing” she’d ever seen (To which Marge Simpson wrote her an apology letter about), honestly changed my life for the better, and I have five reasons why.
