In early 2023, The Simpsons was renewed for two seasons, and this is the final year of that order. Now that the series is owned by Disney, it seems only a matter of time before the show leaves FOX. It’s already been announced that four episodes will run exclusively on Disney+. That’s a first. Could this be the final year on the network? Will The Simpsons be cancelled or renewed for season 37 on FOX? Stay tuned.
An animated family comedy series, The Simpsons TV show stars the voices of Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, Yeardley Smith, Hank Azaria, and Harry Shearer. Recurring players include Tress MacNeille and Pamela Hayden. Now the longest-running American sitcom in history, 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. In season 36, Bart celebrates a birthday that will change his life forever and the family encounters death on vacation at a high-end resort.
