Woohoo!

In addition to everything else on Disney’s new streaming service, it will also have all 30 seasons of ‘The Simpsons.’

Jackson voiced a character on an episode of the show way back in its third season.

The director of a documentary about Apu says he has been told the character will quietly vanish from Springfield.

As often as The Simpsons predicts reality, America’s favorite family can sometimes make their own. Such is the case with a perfectly cromulent new addition to Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, dating all the way back to a 1996 Simpsons episode.

The Simpsons hasn’t had to replace any of its core voice cast just yet, but will nonetheless sound a bit different in Season 29. Longtime composer Alf Clausen was apparently let go from the series after nearly three decades, while the show pursues “a different kind of music.”

Many things make up a hit TV show -- writing, premise, acting, chemistry -- but sometimes a few simple words can play a part.

The FOX comedy first predicted Trump's rise to the presidency in a 2000 episode.

The Simpsons has had plenty of chances to experiment in its 27+ years, but will venture surprisingly modern (as in to the second) with an upcoming “live” segment animated by motion-capture. A first look at the new clip has arrived, but will The Simpsons ever stage an entirely live episode?

Twenty-seven seasons in, The Simpsons still needs to stay topical, an especially difficult feat given the animation process’ long lead time. Well, consider The Simpsons more relevant than ever, up to the moment even, as May will see the long-running FOX staple experimenting with a live segment.

Despite a previous announcement from The Simpsons voice actor Harry Shearer indicating otherwise, it looks like Shearer will officially be returning.

With the news of Homer and Marge's impending separation in Season 27 and Harry Shearer's departure from the cast, has The Simpsons really-truly jumped the shark this time?
