He invented Tap Ball, a sport where many Springfielders can compete, in funny costumes, throwing cats, doing lunges and playing tennis.

Harry Shearer Returns to The Simpsons!


Voice actor Harry Shearer has returned to the show after seemingly quitting seven weeks ago. The actor, who voices many characters in The Simpsons, said that he quit the show over having little freedom to do other things.

Shearer has signed the same contract as the other main cast members, which is a four season contract which is estimated to earn each cast member more than $300,000 per episode.

It was feared by fans of the show that his characters could be recast as Al Jean stated that if Shearer did not sign on by the end of Summer at the latest, his characters would be recast to different voice actors.

Shearer quitting due to not having enough freedom to do other things is possibly because in a period where Harry Shearer thought he had a break from the show, but the producers requested material from him as they were unaware of this arrangement. Even if this was the case, it’s been cleared up now and Shearer’s back.

Season 27 in General

The most relevant news about Season 27(in general) this week have been that music editor Chris Ledesma has told in twitter that Season 27 will end in May 22, 2016!

So, we know lots of episode titles, writers and directors, and we also know the airdates of the Season Premiere and the Finale. What is still left to know??? Plots for lots of episodes and lots of airdates!

FOX has posted (apparently some time ago) PDFs with information about the next seasons of their shows. In The Simpsons‘ document it says the following:

In subsequent episodes, Selma (Kavner) and Patty (Kavner) agree to quit smoking; Homer loses $5,000 in a poker game and loans Lisa out to repay the debt; and the Simpsons’ home gets robbed. Also, in the “Treehouse of Horror XXVI” episode, Sideshow Bob (guest voice Kelsey Grammer) finally kills Bart; Homer wakes up with short-term memory loss; and Lisa, Bart and Milhouse (Pamela Hayden) get super-powers from radiation. Additional guest voices this season include Kristen Bell, Nick Kroll, Edward James Olmos, comedian Blake Anderson (“Workaholics”), magician David Copperfield and violinist Yo-Yo Ma.»

To know everything known until now about Season 27, see:

Homer and Marge Are NOT Breaking Up For Good!!!

There has been a lot of rumors flying around the Internet that Homer and Marge will be breaking up for good in season 27. This has come from a recent interview with Variety (which you can read here) where Al Jean said “Homer and Marge legally separate”. Okay, now read that quote again. “Homer and Marge legally separate”. Where in that does it say “for good”, “for a season-long arc”, “forever”? Oh, yeah… NOWHERE!

Why the media have taken this and blown it up is beyond me. When has The Simpsons ever done a season long arc? Plot points very rarely extend longer than an episode. Homer and Marge have had trouble with their marriage in the past. But they have always gotten through it.

Also, I would like to point out that the information for this episode, which is the season 27 premiere “Every Man’s Dream” in which Homer and Marge separate has been known since January. That’s 5 months! It’s been known for 5 months that they will separate and it is only just brought up now!

Homer and Marge are not separating for longer than an episode so stop believing the crap the media is spreading.
