It is sad to me. The Simpsons is never going to get a definitive, dignified ending where it goes out on a high. It is just going to keep going on and on, slowly losing original bits and pieces. Swapping out a long time voice actor because the show has been going on so long that they aged out and retired is pretty depressing.

Eh, I still enjoy it, although I do find it amusing how the family becomes more and more anachronistic and how they have to keep changing the decades flashbacks occur in as the show ages.

In the 90s, they did a flashback, and Homer/Marge were in high school inthe 1970s.

Now didn't they do one where they were in high school in like 2005?

Funnily enough, there’s an old episode that shows a class reunion in 2024 where Marge and Homer are really old.
