The Panel
The Simpsons’ team looks ahead to their 30th(!) season with creator Matt Groening, executive producer Al Jean, legendary director David Silverman, actress Tress MacNeille, and moderator Johnathan Fernandez. Warning: There will be prizes!
The list of episodes continues to fill up, as the title of the twelth episode of the 30th production season (YABF12) has been revealed. It is titled “I’m Just a Girl Who Can’t Say D’oh“!
In “My Way or the Highway to Heaven”, he will voice himself in Heaven, a reference to his car accident and coma in 2014, when after waking up he said God told him “Your room ain’t ready. I still got something for you to do”. In”Baby You Can’t Drive My Car” he will voice a tow truck driver, who drives past Homer and Marge.
The Plot for the 29th annual Treehouse of Horror, Treehouse of Horror XXIX, was released. It’ll air on October.
Homer wins an oyster-eating contest against the mythical Cthulhu. Springfield is overrun by plant body-snatchers, Lisa finally snaps, and Mr. Burns opens a retirement home with some Jurassic upgrades.
