I would say it’s more variable than average. The pointless shoe-horning of celebrities is annoying, but there are still plenty of great references and bits.

Halloween episodes are often good sometimes great. The Amazing Race parody fits a hilarious Who’s afraid of Virginia Wolf parody within it, that’s the most recent one we laughed a lot at. Some episodes are worth it for the couch gag alone - the bill plympton homer face one is so beautiful, whole seasons of crap would be worth it for that I think.

We’ve just been watching latter Simpsons (seasons 10+) for the first time.

It’s fine. It’s obviously not golden age Simpsons, but it evens out.

If you just expect a decent animated show, rather than another 25 seasons of non-stop generation-defining excellence, you won’t be disappointed.
