SIMPSONS TREEHOUSE OF DISAPPOINTMENT

Watched the latest Simpsons Treehouse of Horror (XVI) last night.
*sigh*

Anyone else feel that these Halloween specials have been ho-hum these past several years? Last night's pretty much sucked.

I remember when the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror specials were freaking BRILLIANT!!! It was an annual event you couldn't wait for and wouldn't dare miss!! ToH I-VI were absolutely classic! There was "Hungry Are The Damned"... "If I Only Had A Brain"... "Dial Z For Zombie"... The Devil & Homer Simpson"... "Dracula"... "The Shinning", etc.
Genius.

But since ToH VII, its gone down hill. Since then, we've had such disappointments as "The Terror of Tiny Toon"... "Night of the Dolphin" (UGH!!!)... "The Right to Keep & Scare Harms"... "In the Belly of the Boss"... and last night's blah: "B.I. Bartificial Intelligence".

What happened to the "Horror" in "Treehouse of Horror"??
Now its lame sci-fi ripoffs at best. The old specials made you feel the Halloween spirit!
You had vampires, witches, ghouls, ghosts, zombies and terror!
You know, HALLOWEEN stuff.

I want the old Treehouse of Horror back, damnit!!!
