Today was a very good day to be a long-running Fox animated show. That is because the network picked up The Simpsons, Bob’s Burgers, and Family Guy for four more years. Those three will be joined by American Dad, which is coming home after moving to TBS in 2014.
“This historic four-season order from our longtime partners at FOX is truly monumental for these iconic animated series. We are so proud that these legendary shows will continue for hundreds of more episodes, allowing new and longstanding fans to watch, rewatch and experience more of The Simpsons, Family Guy, American Dad and Bob’s Burgers for years to come,” said Marci Proietto, head of 20th Television Animation.
The four-year renewal means that The Simpsons will make it to its 40th season. It is the show that will never die. And that is a good thing.
Seth MacFarlane was just 16 years old when The Simpsons debuted. Now, the 51-year-old has two uncancelled shows airing alongside the GOAT! Pretty impressive!
