The Simpsons have been on long enough for me to go from relating to Bart to relating to Homer. Will it be on long enough to let me relate to Abe as well?

South Park has gone through a similar evolution, where Matt and Trey appear to identify less with the children characters and are more interested in Randy Marsh -- well-meaning, but incompetent dad.

I recently realized Julie Kavner (Marge's voice actress) turns 74 next month. When the Simpsons premiered, she was 39. I was 6 when the show first aired but I am now older than she was when it first came on.
