Matt Groening says ‘Fox News removing’; Simpsons season 37 host stars
Kieran Culkin (“Succession”), Glenn Howerton (“It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”), Albert Brooks and Cole Escola (“Oh Mary”) belong to the guest stars who stop along Springfield during the coming season 37 of “The Simpsons”, the producers of producers announced to.
Also Danny Pudi (“Community”), Adam Pally, Brendan and Domhall Gleeson, finally together!
Also during the panel ‘Simpsons’ producers shared a sneak preview of one of the ‘Treehouse of Horror’ segments this year. Idris Elba, Michael Keaton and Viola Davis are his guest in the lead role in that episode, with an opening of guest animator Stan Kelly (from the onion).
Among those on stage: Maker Matt Groening, executive producers Matt Selman and Mike Price, director Matt Faughnan and advisory producer/director David Silverman.
“I really thought 36 was where we would end it,” Groening joked. “No, there is no end in sight. We’re going to go on. We’re going until someone dies. If you know who dies, the Simpsons predicts that there will dance on the street. Besides that President Vance will forbid dance.”
What will arrive next time is the historic 800th episode of the show, which will be broadcast on Fox in February 2026. “It is a big problem to do 800 shows, and so we are going to do two brand new original episodes that evening,” Selman said. “They are top secret for the time being, but I promise you that they are the best 800th episode of everything you’ve ever seen.”
After the recent “coldplay” incident, in which the astronomer CEO and his HR head were caught in a tryst, a deep fake claimed that “The Simpsons” predicted it. Selman warned fans not to fall for these “Simpsons predicts the future” memes.
“Who can be so stupid?” he said. “Of all our 800 episodes that we have done, that those two stupid white people – I am not what I should call, have been done the branches – like who could think, who has such a small reactive intelligence that this is in ‘The Simpsons’ and of course the answer is hundreds and hundreds second and then comment on the thing, they are magic, they are magic,”
Groening jokes said he had the counterpoint: “We are time travelers.” Here were some of his upcoming predictions: “” The Simpsons’ predicts that Elon Musk will be the first man to land on Mars. Amazingly enough, he will land on Mars. But he will go back that he will be stranded there forever. And the most emotional of everything, he will be able to hear it completely.”
Also: “America will give the Statue of Liberty back to France and North America remembers what the word freedom means.” And the most important thing: “‘The Simpsons’ predicts that children throughout America will free their Republican parents from the cult of Maga. And here is how you are doing it. Take the TV remote control, go to menu, go to checks, vertical controls, search for channel list and remove Fox News.”
As part of the event, the “Simpsons” team tried to play a game that Selman called “Simpsons Comic -Con Pictionary”, but the technology was not cooperating. Nevertheless, during that segment of guest animators/writers Michael Cusack (“Smiling Friends”) and Mike McMahan (“Solar Opposites”)) came on stage to also talk and ask about “The Simpsons”.
And of course it was the recent surprising increase in online hot about marge simpson who dies in the season 36 final of the show. As Selman recently told VarietyShe hadn’t done anything like that and that what happened in the last season finale of the series was not a Canon, since “there is no canon, “he said at the time. “The Simpsons” doesn’t even have Canon! “
“She is like in every episode,” Selman said in the panel. ‘There is a new economy of newspaper heads that try to mislead you. I call it ‘trick bait’. The million headlines that say ‘Simpsons’ kills margin, and even those articles naturally admit it, “they didn’t just want us to read our heads.” So again, only a small ounce of thinking after you have read something, make your life a little better. “
