can you please let me know when FOX moved The Simpsons to Sunday Night.

can you please let me know when FOX moved The Simpsons to Sunday Night.

Actually, the series was on Sunday nights for the first season (Dec. 1989-
Aug. 1990), at 8:30 p.m. Then, in Aug. 1990, it was moved to Thursday nights at 8:00 p.m. (opposite NBC's The Cosby Show). In 1992, NBC moved Cosby's hit show to the 8:30 time slot, but The Simpsons remained on Fox's Thursday night schedule at 8:00 p.m., until it was shifted to Sundays in August, 1994. It has remained on Sundays nights since, usually in the 8:00 p.m. time slot (although, from January to February 1995, it did air at 7:00 p.m.).

Thanks for the info

I always thought Sunday was the worst time to air new episodes of the Simpsons. Here's why-

- football. I love watching football (go Eagles, Steelers, and Ravens!) but games tend to go into overtime, and that interferes with the Simpsons.

- lots of holidays like Easter, Mother's Day and Father's Day make it hard to watch new episodes because I'm usually not around watching TV on those days.

- other stations tend to air some really good shows on Sunday night, such as CBS and NBC.

- WWE pay per views air on Sunday nights.

I'd love if they moved the show back to Thursday.
