Simpsons producer James L. Brooks says that Homer will continue to drag Bart on the long-running animated series.
Homer Simpson has been strangling Bart for over thirty years, and despite rumors to the contrary, he will continue to do so. Weird thing to say about child abuse, but here we go.
A recent program of The Simpsons suggesting that Homer’s days of strangling Bart were over. In the session McMansion & his wifewhich began on October 22, Homer shakes the hand of his new neighbor, who says that “very grip” when they shook hands. “Behold, Mary, strangling the boy upon payment,” Homer said to his wife. “Just kidding, I don’t do that anymore. Times have changed.“
This made fans believe that The Simpsons to stop the “goga” that had existed for a long time with some praising the work and others criticizing it. However, series co-creator and producer James L. Brooks told People that nothing has changed with the series. “Don’t think for a second that we’re changing anything,” said Brooks. “Nothing gets boring. Nothing, nothing, nothing. He continues to choke—[if] you want to use that horrible term for it. He will continue to be loved by his father in a special way.“
However, fans have noticed that Homer didn’t stop Bart The Simpsons for several years, with the final issue taking place during the show’s 31st season. The show has changed in a number of ways over the years, most notably recasting some characters of color with their respective actors. As for Apu Nahasapeemapetilon, voiced by Hank Azaria, the character has not spoken in five years and has been reduced to a background character.
The Simpsons was renewed for two more seasons (35 & 36) earlier this year alongside Family Guy and Bob’s Burgers. “With this trio of renewals, we celebrate excellence in animation on Fox, our incredible, long-standing partnership with 20th Television and the brilliant creators and incredible voices behind these choices to forever,” said Michael Thorn, Fox Entertainment president of scripted programming. “Three more decades of ‘The Simpsons,’ more than two decades of ‘Family Guy’ and more than a decade of ‘Bob’s Burgers’ prove the enduring power of our network’s animated genre and the endless fan affinity for the classics that funny comedy. .“
