FAQs

When did The Simpsons end? ›

The Simpsons is a joint production by Gracie Films and 20th Television. On January 26, 2023, the series was renewed for its 35th and 36th seasons, taking the show through the 2024–25 television season.

Episodes of The Simpsons tend to be rated TV-PG, meaning parental guidance is suggested. Some episodes have been rated TV-14, in which case parents are strongly cautioned against allowing children under the age of 14 to watch.

To calculate how long it would take you to watch all of The Simpsons, multiply the number of episodes by the average length of one of them, 22 minutes: 22 min × 740 = 16,280 min . This number corresponds to about 271 hours, or just above 11 days of uninterrupted watching!

Whilst "The Simpsons" has often come under fire for its controversial content and reinforcement of negative stereotypes, the show continues to run and remains popular.

Some critics point to season 7, as the point at which a noticeable decline in quality is observed, while others name season 9, season 10, and still others say The Simpsons golden era lasted from season 1 to season 10.

Good show, kids should watch it.

It's animated, so violence is never that bad, especially when it's usually played for laughs. Cursing isn't unusual, but they never say anything that terrible. The few sex jokes will fly over kids heads. I would say 8+ is fine.

The Wreck of the Relationship.

Actress Nancy MacKenzie, best known for voicing The Simpsons' character Marge Simpson in Latin America, has died at the age of 81.

Burns's extreme old age is a frequent source of humor on the show. He is occasionally referred to as "Springfield's oldest resident"; in Season 2's "Simpson and Delilah", he told Homer that he is 81, although, in several later episodes, he is shown to be 104.

How old is Marge? ›

In first-season episodes "Life on the Fast Lane" and "Some Enchanted Evening", Marge is said to be 36 years old, but her age was later changed to 38, possibly because she and Homer attended their twentieth anniversary high school reunion in one episode.

No, The Simpsons will not be ending in 2024. FOX renewed the series for the 2024-25 season. In fact, as I write this (March 25, 2024), a brand-new episode just aired, and it was quite good.

Time Commitment: If you want to watch all 194 episodes, the commitment is super high (about 72 hours). But since all of the episodes are stand alone, you definitely don't have to watch all of them. So really, the time commitment is whatever you want it to be.

The Simpsons Is Only Renewed Through Season 36

In early 2023, Fox confirmed that it had renewed The Simpsons for two further runs of episodes. The first batch of episodes in the renewal, season 35, will come to a conclusion in the next few weeks. Meanwhile, season 26 is scheduled to air during the 2024-25 TV season.

The series was renewed for seasons 35 and 36 on January 26, 2023.

The simpsons has been renewed through to 2025 by which time there will have been more than 800 episodes produced. No other scripted TV series even comes close. The fact that it went six weeks without a new episode is not unprecedented but likely is an aftereffect of the writers' and actors' strike.

The show, as any fan will explain, relies heavily on visual gags — an aspect of joke-telling that wouldn't become an issue until near the end of 2009, about a third of the way through The Simpsons' 20th season — when the show's aspect ratio switched from 4:3 to 16:9.
