For 35 years, we have seen Bart and Lisa Simpson as animated characters on The Simpsons.
Have you ever wondered what the TV siblings look like in real life? Well, Nancy Cartwright (Bart) and Yeardley Smith (Lisa) walked a red carpet, and we got to see they get along better than their characters do.
I don’t know about you, but seeing the two voice actresses playing together, makes me so happy.
I have been watching The Simpsons started, and I never pondered where Bart Simpsons’ hairline started. However, someone wondered about that, and they asked Nancy Cartwright, who voices Bart, where it starts.
So where does it begin? Even she doesn’t know.
But the voice actress did reveal that Bart has nine spikes and not 12 like the doll she was holding.
A few weeks ago, during an episode of The Simpsons, Homer Simpson told his neighbor that he will no longer strangle the boy.
So people thought that was the end of the gag that has been going on since the show started. Is it?
It is not. David Silverman, who has been animating the series since 1988, showed images of the first time he drew Homer strangling to the latest one, which has not yet aired and was drawn around the same time the controversy started.
And there you have it. Homer will continue to choke his son!
Ever since The Simpsons launched in 1989, Homer has been strangling his son Bart. But it looks like that has finally changed.
During the 3rd episode of season 35, Homer shakes hands with his new neighbor, who tells him he has a firm grip. Homer responds with, “See, Marge, strangling the boy has paid off. Just kidding. I don’t do that anymore. Times have changed.”
But have they? The Simpsons posted the above photo and wrote, “Homer Simpson was unavailable for comment as he was busy strangling Bart.”
So it looks that gag will be making a comeback. Or will it? We will find out.
On October 1st, The Simpsons is going to debut its record-breaking 35th season on Fox.
Just like roaches after a nuclear bomb, this show won’t die! And that is A-OK with me because they get better with each season.
Plus, we never know what they are going to predict. For example, they knew, almost 30 years ago, that a president of the United States was going to be arrested during the same summer that a Barbie movie was released. Spooky! Just like this season’s Treehouse of Horrors will be! Because they always are.
But they will never be as spooky as the animated sitcom’s predictions. So watch the show carefully because you never know what they are going to get right for the year 2042. If we make it to 2042. I hope the roaches like The Simpsons because that might be all they have to watch in the future.
