User blog:UltimateMegaGeo/A few - one major - updates on The Simpsons....MASSIVE UPDATE - 10/27/13

Ah, The Simpsons. After about 25 years, the show's clearly been striking a downfall. The newer episodes are still pretty good, but nothing beats the classics. I don't think anyone else here really follows the series anymore, but I sure do.

So, about 2 weeks ago, the series was renewed for at least one more season: Season 26. I'm pretty happy for this, but it comes as a mild shock. After Season 25 ends next Spring, it would leave us at 599 episodes. The 600th could be the movie that Dan Schnieder wants done after the main series ends. Hmm...

Anyway, back in July, a crossover with Futurama was confirmed, possibly as the Season 25 finale.

Finally, the big announcement. A few days ago, a character was announced to be killed off on the Season 26 premiere, leaving us with a few clues. First, the character's voice actor has won an Emmy. This leaves Mr. Burns, Smithers, Ned Flanders, Principal Skinner, Kent Brockman, Reverend Lovejoy, and more. Harry Shearer has never won an Emmy for his work on The Simpsons.

I'm seriously fearing for Moe's life right now. But Moe and Sideshow Bob are a bit too obvious.

Do you care? What do you think?
