>>106183768The classic seasons involved a _lot_ of script rewriting and collaborations by the entire writing team. If you saw some draft scripts, they had quite a few plot holes, poor characterizations, and jokes that are stupid, unfunny, or miss the mark. For example in The Way We Was, the scene where Marge burns her bra at a feminist rally had a couple of rather tasteless jokes they took out of the finished script, and glad they did.
