'The Simpsons'...coming to an end? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Groening fans were also given two nuggets of info: First, the team has "no intention" of wrapping up The Simpsons anytime soon — certainly not as long as "the ratings keep up," added Jean, "and they have." Also, Groening was asked if he'd ever considered turning his newspaper comic strip Life in Hell into an animated series. Not really, he said, before launching into a castigation of the San Diego Reader, which no longer carries the strip, noting that he needles the paper every time he comes to Comic-Con.

They jumped the shark 7 years ago!

If I ever launch a TV show, I'm going to make sure that it doesn't overcome its stay.

I still find the show funny, but I think it's time to wrap it up. My favorite seasons are seasons 1 through 9.

I think that The Simpsons will be on for another view year's

I don't watch the show, haven't for years... but still like to see it go on, if for nothing more than to further cement their place in the history books for how long they stayed on the air with the ratings they did.

Last time it was on, which was several weeks ago. What's up with that?

...after its 25th season (2013-'14).

That brings up an interesting question. We know that at least one of the Bradys, Susan Olsen, was on Gun Smoke (or "Gun Shmoke" as she put it) but were any of the voice actors from The Simpsons ever on that show?
