The Simpsons - TV Show

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

I could swear that want another 60 eps to outdo Gunsmoke's total count.

That might be the biggest piece of non-news about that show in its history.

Smithers was clearly gay in Season 1. How brave of them to have him fully step out in Season 27.

Smithers was also clearly black in season 1.

Only the first episode he was in, which they claimed was a simple mistake.
It's not me, it's someone else.

Renewed for seasons 29 and 30.
With the double renewal, the animated sitcom will hit 669 episodes during its 30th season, breaking the record for most episodes of any scripted show, among both animated and live-action series. Previously, that record was held by “Gunsmoke,” the Western drama that aired from 1955 to 1975, hitting 635 episodes.

Documentary about Simpsons directed by Morgan Spurlock to air on FOX.

I posted this only to say, "I wonder how much of this documentary will be faked."

(Fuck Morgan Spurlock.)

Disney might axe The Simpsons after season 32.

Initially, it doesn't make sense...until you read how they stand to make billions renegotiating rights to the archive of episodes, which they can't do until the show stops production due to existing agreements.
