** It helps that ''[[The Simpsons]]'' is not only a cartoon, but gave up even the pretense of being a "realistic working-class sitcom" ages ago.
*Most modern cartoons have largely stopped using wacky sound effects en masse for decades, with the last shows that used it started in the mid to late 2000's, and it almost completely ended in the 2010's, save for a few shows that might use them once or twice as an allusion to their roots. Even the franchises that got their start using them have largely abandoned them. The sole exception to this has been the Scooby Doo franchise, as even the most recent additions to the franchise have repeatedly used the old wacky sound effects. This would under normal circumstances place the franchise horribly out of date, but ever since the franchise debuted half a century ago, all of the show's installments, barring the live action films, have used the old sound effects to play for comedy, meaning any addition not using them would be immediately noticeable.
