What episode do you recall as being the moment you realised The Simpsons had passed it's peak and was now going downhill?

I remember getting some DVD's off a friend at school that had some eps of s16 that had yet to be shown in Aus.

Got half way through the second episode (All's Fair in Oven War) when I realised there was not much point continuing, as I hadn't enjoyed the previous episode either.

Looking through the episode guide on Wikipedia I don't recall any of the episodes from s15, however s14 I definitely remember most of them and enjoyed a few eps.

So for me even though I recall a specific episode where I realised it was no longer good, s15 appears to have been where I lost interest.
I've been ploughing through them on Disney+ starting from the very beginning and I'm currently at the end of season 13.

Season 9 is when the cracks started to appear (still a great season for the most part). Season 10 is when it started to feel like a different show. The characters changed, especially Homer infamously transitioning from a dim-witted yet kind-hearted family man to an arseh*le (Jerkass Homer) and the plots becoming more nonsensical. Basically became less of an animated sitcom and more of a cartoon.

It's still entertaining, although inconsistent, but I'll persist and see how far I can get before I feel enough is enough.
