A major character of the Simpsons wil be killed

[Kramodlog]

The new season will start with death! I wonder who it will be. Maybe Homer's dad?

But the real question is: does anyone still watch the show?

"I'll give you a clue that the actor playing the character won an Emmy for playing that character, but I won't say who it is," Jean told reporters.

The cast has received wins for playing:

Homer
Marge
Bart
Lisa
Abe
Moe
Apu
Sideshow Bob
Sideshow Mel
Edna
Krusty
Willie
Barney
Itchy

I'm gonna guess...Itchy.

But the real question is: does anyone still watch the show?

I'm pretty certain the answer to that query is 'no'.

My guess is Apu.

 

[Herschel]

Moe.

 

[Dwimmerlied]

I dunno. But I love that the actor playing Itchy won an Emmy, but not the one playing Scratchy

 

[Dog Moon]

I'm pretty certain the answer to that query is 'no'.

I'm pretty sure if no one actually watched the show it would have been canceled long ago.

As a serious response, I have not watched the Simpsons for a VERY long time and no one I know does. But there have to be enough people SOMEWHERE who still watch it if got approved for another season...

Ratings aren't hard to find. Millions do, indeed, continue to watch the show.

I myself have never watched it regularly - just caught (a lot of) reruns.

That would be Harry Shearer, who hasn't won anything for some odd reason. He does an impressive number of characters on the show.
