At The Simpsons panel at Comic Con 2010 in San Diego yesterday morning, the cast of the show revealed what we can expect to see in the upcoming 22nd season (premiering Sept 26, 2010) and more.
- The cast of Glee will feature in an episode
- Other guest stars include Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg, Cheech and Chong, Wallace and Gromit, Jon Hamm, Daniel Radcliffe, Martha Stewart, Hugh Laurie, and Jonah Hill
- A teaser from Treehouse of Horror XXI was shown, in which board games come to life and wreak havoc on Springfield
- A teaser from this year’s Christmas special showed The Simpsons in puppet form
- 2011′s Christmas special will see The Simpsons 30 years in the future in which Bart, Lisa and Maggie bring their own kids over to Homer and Marge’s for Christmas.
- Al Jean reiterated “There’s no end in sight” for the show
- They won’t rule out the possibility of a spin-off; Matt Selmon says “Come on, Seth MacFarlane does one show three times”.
Thanks to the LA Times.

Wallace and Gromit!! That should be interesting…
Also the Christmas special sounds kinda cool.
*I hate Glee!
*Again with the guest stars!
*Isn’t that just like Saw?
*Clamboring us all to buy merchandise of Simpsons puppets.
*Hasn’t every sitcom already done that?
*God damn it! Then it’ll be even more impossible to make a timeline where Bart was born in 1998!
*Okay, that’s a positive, more Wiggum PI!
@ Peter
Either you’re in a bad mood or you need to stay the hell away from next season.
But yeah, Glee really does suck.
OMG WALLACE AND GROMIT, TOTALLY AWESOME!!!
is there a video of it somewere?
cool, christmas sounds interesting, and that part of board games coming to life and creating havoc on Trehouse of Horror XXI, weird, but it will also have a parody of the Sh*t fenomenon twilight, with Daniel Radcliffe. I HATE THE TWILIGHT MOVIES!
who would work in a spin-off?
1- Moe;
2- Krusty;
3- Apu;
4- Tales from Springfield, in wich every episode would focus on a different character. Matt Groening´s own idea, and it’s great.
Dan Radcliffe is from Harry Potter, not Twilight.
don’t you think I know that? since I could read I’m a Harry Potter waco. I meant he’ll be in the twighlite parody, i’m sorry if it was confusing
This site blows. The LA Times article says nothing about a 2011 Christmas episode. The actors’ contract only goes through the ’10-’11 season.
@ally
You are obviously new to this site. Of course it blows. Nobody updates it. There is no care effort or real passion. The reports are ripped off other sources – which is fine as the news has to come from somewhere, but the writing up lacks enthusiasm and episode recaps and ratings postings are geared sometimes to attract the non simpsons fan when this site is in fact meant for simpsons fans. that’s why every episode is constantly rated 5 starts as the best ever. Whoever owns and updates this site may not have recognized that in the beginning. They need to run a simpsons fan site as one and realize no one else will be coming here.
I have offered news, stories, updates, ideas, and suggestions but never once received a reply. This site has so much potential with its name alone and it fails on so many levels. Instead of re-doing the format of the website they should have replaced the site managers and put people to work who actually like the show and care about it.
But on a positive note, i do appreciate the non episode related information that comes (when it does) and I like reading the comments others can leave after an episode.
But really there is so much they could be writing about – DVD sales. Homer being named greatest tv character. Recent cast interviews. Emmy nominations. Recent crew interviews. Politicians recently mocking the simpsons. New memorabilia. Simpsons Film cells auction. The largest collector. Information on the new season (which this post addresses). Advertising. Ratings (which they do). Etc. And it goes on and on.
Constructive Criticism goes far when you care to embrace change
if you want all the news about the simpsons, go to imdb.com
Found that detail on another site.
There was speculation in the early 90s that a Krusty the Clown spin-off was in the works but never came into development.
If there is a spin-off, my opinion is that Krusty would be it.
I would give my left arm and my right leg for a “Springfield Elementary” spinoff. No Homer and his “wacky” antics or Marge and her relationship woes. Just Bart, Lisa, their classmates, and the stressed out teaching staff at Springfield Elementary, going about their daily lives: Achieving, overachieving, pranking, relationships, friendships, love, first kisses, school dances, school suspensions! It’d make for an excellent show with endless possibilities.
I hope Season 22 is the last.
No joke.
Can’t say this season looks very interesting so far.
Oh, and at the risk of nitpicking… it’s not the “Glee cast”, it’s three actors from the show. The writers are clearly trying to get in on the hype with that.
“◦2011′s Christmas special will see The Simpsons 30 years in the future in which Bart, Lisa and Maggie bring their own kids over to Homer and Marge’s for Christmas.
◦Al Jean reiterated “There’s no end in sight” for the show”
This is awesome. The rest doesn’t sound too great…
