It’s the Last Mad Tree Suit, this Throwback Thursday

Throwback Thursday

OK, I don’t think suit depicting a mad tree actually exists, but it was a pun on one of the episodes which aired on May 14 in the past. And, let’s get on with that episode which inspired the pun.

In season 11, a formerly tension-free (almost) Marge finally lets off all of her years-built up and hidden steam (again) as Otto dumps his bride-to-be on the Simpsons’ front garden and she, Becky, ends up staying with them. Marge quickly finds herself playing hostess to a Becky, and when Becky’s attempts to earn her keep upstage Marge’s own homemaking abilities, Marge quickly finds herself losing her mind. You could call it, a battle of the housewives. No pun there, couldn’t think of one.

Marge thinks she sees Becky holding a gun…
….but it just turns out to be her holding a hairdryer.

Harry Shearer leaving The Simpsons

Episodes


After the TABF-production Harry Shearer will not be part of the main cast in The Simpsons. He has voiced many characters over the years, including Kent Brockman, Mr. Burns, Ned Flanders, Julius Hibbert, Kang, Lenny Leonard, Timothy Lovejoy, Otto Mann, Seymour Skinner, Waylon Smithers and Rainier Wolfcastle. He has been part of the cast since the first episode was aired in 1989. He is leaving the series because he wants the freedom to do other work. In the last four years, he starred in a UK TV series and starred on the London stage. Shearer has, however, said that he will be willing to continue working on the show as long as he can do other stuff too.

Al Jean has stated on Twitter that if Harry Shearer does not return, his characters will be recast.

Simpson injustices, this Throwback Thursday

Throwback Thursday

There’s a new cop in town – who quit after only a few days on the force. That’s right, Marge Simpson forged the plot for “The Springfield Connection”, which aired today in 1995, when she joined the police force to fight crime on the streets but ended up arresting Homer for parking over disabled bays.

It does beg the question – how the hell did Marge and Homer not realize Herman was running a counterfeit jeans operation in their garage? They use it every day and have to replace the door every Sunday….

The Simpsons renewed for two more seasons!

Episodes


The Simpsons has been officially renewed for two more seasons. This deal will see season 27 become a full season with more than the leftover episodes from last production season, with a full 22 episodes. Season 28 will also be happening, with a full season.

The fate of the show was left in doubt as the animators for the show were given no return date after they finished work. However, the writers were still busy writing episodes for the show. The limbo was due to contract negotiations with the cast.
