20th Season Spoilers
Thursday, September 4th, 2008
As has been pointed out on this blog many of times, The Simpsons is two decades old, especially if one factors in the original shorts on The Tracy Ullman Show. The show is hitting another huge milestone. The Simpsons, as a Fox show, is entering into it’s twentieth season. Basically, somebody born during the first season is in adulthood, now. Still, one wonders what Groening and the other producers have in store.
According to IGN.com, there are a few huge guest spots on the horizon. Jodie Foster is set to make her Springfield debut. Foster’s turn is going to be a huge one – she’s set to be the voice of Maggie. Only Elizabeth Taylor has voiced the toddler, and Foster’s prospective episode will return to the Springfield of the future, where Lisa, Bart, and Maggie have all grown into adulthood. In one similar type of episode, Maggie was shown, but she never got a word in edgewise, as it became a running gag.
Anne Hathaway is also scheduled to make an appearance. Again, according to IGN.com, Hathaway will join a long list of actresses who’ve voiced Bart’s romantic interests. The list is rather long when you realize that boys, at Bart’s age, typically think girls are filled with cooties. The potential episode will have Bart trying to behave himself, so that he can win Hathaway’s character’s affections. Naturally, something will happen to screw that up, but there’s always potential.
Hopefully, there will be other surprises in store. There will be, likely. After 19 seasons so far, Groening and company have mostly succeeded. The show still wouldn’t be going if they hadn’t.
The Simpsons and politics always goes together, partly because 

We all know that The Simpsons are known for having celebrities guest star on the famous cartoon. Many have joined the ranks of the jawless forms we call The Simpsons such as Michael Jackson, Paul McCartney, and The Rolling Stones. Prince almost had the same coveted opportunity until his chauffeur got in the way.

earlier this week that rap star Chris “Ludacris” Bridges will be making an appearance on an upcoming episode of The Simpsons, the 400th episode to be exact.
a short description of the episode.
I found a rather candid interview with the creators of The Simpsons, Matt Groening and Mel Brooks. They speak still very vaguely about the movie and even admit that some of the stuff they leaked was fake, so who knows if they’re telling the truth now. Here are some excerpts from that interview.
This is just a quick post for everyone. This week’s episode was a rerun that had Bart getting a license and almost getting married titled “Little Big Girl.”
the Internet has to offer, Marge decides to join a popular role-playing fantasy game named “Earthland Realms.” To Marge’s dismay, the game has her interacting with practically the whole town of Springfield, including Bart, who happens to be the game’s most feared and destructive player. Meanwhile, Homer saves Lisa’s soccer game from cancellation after he volunteers to take the place of a referee who recently quit. However, Homer’s refereeing skills only exasperate Lisa, and her competitive streak gets the best of her.
