What’s This TV Show About?
Airing on the FOX television network, The Simpsons stars the voices of Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, Yeardley Smith, Hank Azaria, and Harry Shearer. Now the longest-running American sitcom, the show revolves around working stiff Homer Simpson (Castellaneta), his understanding blue-haired wife Marge (Kavner), delinquent son Bart (Cartwright), intellectual daughter Lisa (Smith), infant daughter Maggie, and their Springfield relations, friends, foes, and neighbors.
Season 32 Ratings
The 32nd season of The Simpsons averaged a 0.71 rating in the 18-49 demographic and 2.03 million viewers. Compared to season 31, that’s down by 25% in the demo and down by 21% in viewership. Find out how The Simpsons stacks up against other FOX TV shows.
The Simpsons has been renewed through season 34. Season 33 will debut September 26, 2021. Stay tuned for further updates.
Telly’s Take
Will FOX cancel or renew The Simpsons for season 33? When the series was renewed for seasons 31 and 32, the network picked up the series through episode 713. At the end of season 31, 684 installments had aired so that leaves 29 episodes left unaired. If FOX runs 22 installments for season 32 (though they could certainly air more because of the pandemic), that will leave seven episodes which can be included in the 33rd season. I’m confident the series will be renewed. I’ll update this page with breaking developments. Subscribe for free alerts on The Simpsons cancellation or renewal news.
3/4/21 update: The Simpsons has been renewed through season 34 (2022-23).
