Welcome to TheSimpsons, a community for discussing everything related to America's non-prehistoric cartoon family, The Simpsons!
Right about now, you're probably saying, "Troy, basically every post starts with 'Guess the Episode', is that all this community is?"
To which I say you've got some attitude, mister.
But no, any Simpsons content is allowed in this community, although we do ask that you keep the shitposting over in [email protected].

Guess the Episode "Rules"
- Post a screenshot from an episode of the Simpsons. Frinkiac being a popular source.
- If posting a GIF the file size should be less than 1MB, otherwise it may not be animated.
- Easy, a screenshot any who's seen the Simpsons would get.
- Medium, a screenshot that would take a moment for most people to get.
- Hard, a screenshot that someone only gets after you explain it to them.
- Genius at Work, a screenshot that makes someone go, "Yeah, that's from The Simpsons, the one where the family does the funny thing".
These "Rules" aren't real, so if you think of something clever, do that instead.

Haven't watched regularly in years, so I'm unsure how prevalent Milhouse has been in recent seasons.
Still seemed sad.
Milhouse isn't retiring, lol, the actress that voices his is, they're gonna recast for the Milhouse voice. Lady made 25 million dollars voicing Simpsons characters in the last 35 years, she's done fine she's old now, and want to do other things
It's an interesting question. Some characters are quietly retired (Phil Hartman's), while others are killed off in-series (Krabapple). Eventually all of the original cast will age out or pass away. Will they continue Ship of Theseus style by replacing people?
Retiring the entire show seems to be impossible, although I'd argue that it should have been done 15 years ago.
Or with enough audio references they will just replace them all with AI.
That's a great point. They have a vast pool of references after all these years.
That'd be even more depressing and gross than recasting everyone with new actors.
Yes and cheaper for Fox so they'll love it. The zombie corpse of the Simpsons continues to shamble onwards
