      Apu one, not really. If they had kept Apu as a 1 note character, yes. But Apu was one of the best supporting characters on the show (voice acting "controversy" aside). Business owner, smart as hell (knowing pi to 40,0000 places), college grad, one of the most desired men in his single years, and now a devoted husband. Simpsons made fun of everyone. But also showed other sides to them.

      Indians in India are the majority population and don't actually have to live in America and face the harsh reality of being a minority and tolerate daily discrimination from white people and others. It's shocking, I know. /sarcasm
      And before idiots say, "If you don't like America, then move back to where you came from!", no, that's not the answer. You don't solve problems by running away from them. You stay and fight and change things for the better.
      Just to be clear, axing Apu as a character completely from the show, did not please everyone. The Simpsons writers could've kept him and improved upon the character but they're feckless cowards and chose the easy way out by not bothering to confront and truly fix the problem of Apu.

    I love how Apu is a big issue with the Simpsons" yet they have dozens of minority characters and people don't make a fuss out of it. Like Bumblebee Man,he's a Mexican stereotype. Yet you don't see thousands of outraged Latinos demanding he get taken out of the show,or Carl who's black but doesn't act as such and just acts like some generic background character. My point to all this is that people definitely need to loosen up,not take things seriously 😂

    Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but I’m still a bit upset over Apu leaving. Was he a stereotype? Yes, but most of the characters are stereotypes. It’s supposed to be satirical.
    Groundskeeper Willie is a stereotypical Scotsman yet I don’t see campaigns trying to get rid of him. Even Homer himself is a huge stereotype of American men. Considering that Apu was a hardworking and smart man I think he was one of the lucky ones.

    Homer is literally a stereotype of the white American. Almost every character is a stereotype, no matter where in the world they come from.
    There is no reason Apu would be any different, and an easier and more obvious "solution" to the babies would have been to ease him out of stereotypes and make him a bit more "authentic." It should have been easy.
    He was a 3 dimensional character. Flawed but with a lot of heart.

    Jacque Brunswick(Life In The Fast Lane)
    Caleb Thorne(Bonfire Of The Manatees)
    Mindy Simmons (Last Temptation of Homer)
    Ginger
    Quilloughby(Panic On The Street Of Springfield
    and a lot more, and it shown them having summer vacation in a swimming pool, getting tan, having fun getting in food fights, goofing off!
    And Tara Swann should be singing, "This series is not about two mentally challenged teenaged boys on their couch(Beavis and Butthead) then, "This series is not about mountain people from a Park down South (South Park), You Better Chill Out! Talking about taking shots at The Simpsons like it's Patron! Shade won't make cartoon just for kids!
    Tara Swann should be voiced by Jeannette McCurdy!
    Tara Swann is based on Taylor Swift and You Better Chill out is based on You Need To Calm Down.
