Get excited, because The Simpsons is back and it's hinting at a major change in its upcoming season! After 35 years of waiting, fans may finally get what they've been hoping for in Season 36. The beloved animated series returns to Fox this weekend with an episode that could shake the very foundation of the show.
The official account for The Simpsons on X teased the first episode, titled "Bart's Birthday," with a trailer and the words, "It's the episode fans have waited for since 1989." As most fans know, none of the characters on the show age, so it's always a big deal when a birthday episode comes around. This time, Bart will be celebrating his birthday in a way that will have a lasting impact on everyone in Springfield.
The network has described the episode as "the most shocking birthday party of [Bart's] entire life." Could this be the moment that fans have been waiting for? Will we finally see the characters age? The speculation is running wild, with some fans even hoping for a permanent change in the show's canon.
One fan on Twitter wrote, "A canon change would be neat," while another predicted, "He's turning 11 finally? FINALLY?" Others are hoping for a change that will have a more lasting impact than the temporary shock of a character's death, as seen on other animated shows.
Meanwhile, the show's writer-producer, Michael Price, is hyping up the episode on Twitter, saying, "You do NOT want to miss this. A truly epic episode that people will be talking about on Monday." He also reveals that the episode was written by Jessica Conrad, executive produced by Matt Selman, and co-run by himself. So, it's safe to say that this is going to be a must-watch episode.
Not only that, but WWE and Hollywood star John Cena will be making his debut on the show as a guest star. The trailer for "Bart's Birthday" doesn't reveal much, but we do see Bart noticing that "something super weird is going on" outside Moe's Tavern. And Homer will be trying a "miracle new diet drug" that might just have some unexpected side effects.
But that's not all that The Simpsons has in store for its fans this season. There will be two terrifying Halloween episodes, including one called "Treehouse of Horror XXXV" where "giant monsters created by political rage" will threaten the town. And in a special bonus episode, Lisa will be transported into "three strange stories" from different time periods.
As always, we can expect some special treats from The Simpsons this season. So, mark your calendars and get ready for the return of this beloved animated favorite on Sunday.
