except the promos at the time for the episode ruined the ending as they showed what happened the only time Homer got up to bat.

  Do people really watch the Simpsons for the plot?

    Well I really wanted to know who shot Mr. Burns.

    We did up until it all went downhill. Circa 2001, they went from hand-drawn to digital animation so the quality of the writing took a back seat to getting quick jokes on the air in a few weeks instead of months. Hand-drawn required more money and time for the animators in Asia (maybe South Korea?). And why waste all that money on bad writing? Same goes for using the old punch-card systems.

      True enough: everything went to hell when they started putting the original Homer's writing down on animal skins.

        I think things went downhill when they introduced Seymour Skinner as an imposter[1] [1] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Principal_and_the_Pauper https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Principal_and_the_Pauper

    This sounds like a comment from someone who has not watched the first 10 seasons. Simpsons had many solid plots.
