			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last night&#8217;s new episode &#8216;Postcards From The Wedge&#8217; drew an audience of 5.23 million viewers &#8211; dangerously close to its all-time lowest figures. In fact, it had the third-lowest ratings on record. Unlike the previous lows this season, the show did not run against &#8220;event television&#8221; such as the Grammy&#8217;s or a major sporting event. Here&#8217;s the breakdown for the half-hour:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">CBS &#8211; The Amazing Race (10.14 million)<br />
ABC &#8211; Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (7.90 million)<br />
NBC &#8211; Minute To Win It (6.60 million)<br />
FOX &#8211; The Simpsons (5.23 million)</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="../screenshots/postcardsfromwedge-shot.jpg"><img class="aligncenter" title="postcardsfromwedge-shot" src="../screenshots/postcardsfromwedge-shot.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="281" /></a></p>
<p>As you can see, the show came fourth in its time slot  against weak competition. A repeat of &#8216;The Great Wife Hope&#8217; at 8.30pm fared slightly better, with 5.36  million viewers and a new Family Guy at 9.00 had 6.7 million viewers. The biggest event for the night, Undercover Boss on CBS (13.99 million) didn&#8217;t start til 9:00pm.  The episode now joins the least-watched list.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;">1. &#8220;Million Dollar Maybe&#8221; (season 21) &#8211; 5.11 million<br />
2. &#8220;Four Great Women and a Manicure&#8221; (season 20) &#8211; 5.16 million<br />
3. &#8220;Postcards From The Wedge&#8221; (season 21) 5.23 million<br />
4. &#8220;Lisa the Drama Queen&#8221; (season 20) &#8211; 5.75 million<br />
5. &#8220;Coming To Homerica&#8221; (season 20) &#8211; 5.86 million</p>
<p>A new episode, &#8216;Stealing First Base&#8217;, airs next weekend. If you haven&#8217;t already, remember to rate the &#8216;Postcards From The Wedge&#8217; using our poll below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Fox has released a promotional image for the March 28 episode, titled &#8216;Greatest Story Ever D&#8217;ohed&#8217;.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.simpsonschannel.com/screenshots/greatest-stories.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-4226" title="greatest-stories" src="http://www.simpsonschannel.com/screenshots/greatest-stories.jpg" alt="" width="432" height="432" /></a></p>
<p>The Simpsons vacation in the Holy Land, where Homer is convinced that he is the Messiah &#8212; and gets in trouble with the Muslims, the Jews, and the Christians, who all band together, despite their religious differences, to teach Homer a lesson. Sacha Baron Cohen guest stars as Jacob, an eccentric tour guide who shows the the Wailing Wall.</p>
<p>In March last year, Al Jean had <a href="http://www.metro.co.uk/showbiz/583232-homer-simpson-goes-to-middle-east" target="_blank">this</a> to say of the episode: &#8220;I think we&#8217;re going to do one next year where they go to the Holy Land  as we haven&#8217;t been there yet. The premise will be that the Christians,  the Jews and Muslims are united in that they all get mad at Homer. It&#8217;s  the only thing they can agree on.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Olympic-themed episode &#8216;Boy Meets Curl&#8217; served as an alternative to the Winter Olympics last night, but the majority of the audience preferred to tune in to the real deal, delivering the show it&#8217;s <span style="color: #ff0000;">fifth lowest ratings of all time</span>. A total of <strong>5.87 million </strong>viewers watched the show, slightly up on this month&#8217;s other episode &#8216;Million Dollar Maybe&#8217;, but largely down on average. The show was fourth-placed in its timeslot at 8.00pm. Here&#8217;s the half-hour breakdown.</p>

ABC – America’s Funniest Home Videos (7.17 million)<br />
CBS – The Amazing Race (8.90 million)<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Boy Meets Curl&#8221; premieres tonight at 8:00pm on Fox. The episode is based on the 2010 winter Olympics which is currently taking place in Vancouver, Canada.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4196  aligncenter" title="boymeetscurl" src="http://www.simpsonschannel.com/screenshots/boymeetscurl.jpg" alt="" width="500" /></p>
<p>Homer takes Marge out for a romantic evening of ice skating and hand-holding, but upon entering the rink, they encounter a curling team practicing. Marge and Homer take to the ice and discover their love for the sport, and soon after, join the curling team and compete with them in the Olympic trials. Team Springfield claims the win and moves on to the 2010 Vancouver Games where Bob Costas (guest-voicing as himself) covers the action. Meanwhile, sleazy vendors introduce Lisa to the world of collecting Olympic pins, and before long, Lisa is hopelessly addicted.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello visitors! We&#8217;re very excited today to finally unveil our brand new design for Simpsons Channel. This is the site&#8217;s first new look since we introduced the Wordpress content management system back in September 2008. Many of the successful elements from the previous design remain while others have been drastically overhauled.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.simpsonschannel.com/screenshots/channel14-opening1.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-4113  aligncenter" title="channel14-opening" src="http://www.simpsonschannel.com/screenshots/channel14-opening1.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="500" /></a></p>
<p>Our old discussion pages have gone and in place you will see a &#8216;Forum&#8217; section. This will allow our users to post topics of their choosing and allow for discussion that was previously limited. With that, our members are given a stronger focus, and you will notice you can now log in and out, or check your login status at the top of every page.</p>
<p>But the biggest change today is to our design. Way back when we started in 1997, every other Simpsons fansite would feature a cloud background, which would eventually become the bane of every single Simpson&#8217;s web goer&#8217;s existence. And due to that popular public opinion, the clouds have not been seen on any popular fan site for at least a decade.</p>
<p>We feel that we should preserve such an iconic piece of the show and indeed its web history, as it is something that has existed on every single episode since Bart the Genius. So, we&#8217;ve taken the opportunity and we&#8217;re going to own the cloud background, to usher in a new decade of our favorite family. We trust that their new high-definition appearance wont rekindle distant memories of websites&#8217; past, and hopefully fill your mind with positive thoughts on our brand new look <img src='http://www.simpsonschannel.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  .</p>
