Two Sneak Peeks for the upcoming 21th episode of season 29, titled “Flanders’ Ladder”, have been released by FOX. The episode will air Sunday May 20th and will be the Season Finale. The 2nd one also shows previews of the other shows airing that night.
Stay tuned for more!
One more episode to go and “The Simpsons” stays fractional, but the fact it hasn’t gone lower is something to be thankful for.
Sunday’s episode scored a 0.9/4 and 2.142 million viewers; only the viewership was down – and VERY marginally down – from the previous episode (2.147m).
The episode skewed 53% to the 18-49 demo (the lowest skew of Fox’s primetime, bar repeats), equating to around 1.14 million viewers in that demographic.
The episode was beaten by “Family Guy”, which ranked top of the night for Fox with a 1.0/4 rating and 2.154 million viewers (just 102,000 viewers separating them).
With one episode to go, the season is averaging 1.46 in the demos and 3.518 million in viewership. By this point last year, last season was averaging 1.76 and 4.108 million
Competition in “The Simpsons”‘ timeslot was below usual (viewing levels, especially early in the evening, decline as we go further into spring), with around 18 million shared around the other three broadcast networks.
See you next Tuesday to see how “The Simpsons” copes with its season finale up against the mights of the “American Idol” finale and the Billboard Music Awards… my guess is that it records a new series low. Until then…!

The brief uptick to celebrate becoming the longest-running primetime scripted series on US TV didn’t last long, with “The Simpsons” falling back into the fractions.
Sunday’s episode scored a 0.9/4 rating and 2.147 million viewers.
Bar the share – that’s down from the previous episode‘s 1.0/4 and 2.473 million viewers, and down from the equivalent episode last year (1.0, 2.34m).
It was the top show in Fox primetime, however, with – once again – it being the only show above two million viewers.
This season – with just two more episodes to go – is averaging a 1.48 rating and 3.59m viewers.
The show had a lower amount of opposition than usual; around 18 million were on the other three broadcast networks during the episode’s timeslot.
See you next Tuesday!
