The Man from G. R. A. M. P. A. is an episode of The Simpsons that unfortunately falls short in comparison to the show's golden era. If this episode had aired in the '90s, the plot and humor would have been similar to that of The Springfield Files, in which the humor came from the serious characters' reactions to the grotesque and eccentric residents of Springfield. Nowadays, the show's humor often consists of adding stand-up comedy-like phrases to any character, even serious ones, and this simply isn't funny. At least this episode is decent to watch, but it's not one to rewatch multiple times. The show's humor has definitely changed for the worse, and while this episode may be enjoyable, it falls far short of the quality of the earlier seasons.
