Great news for all The Simpsons fans! Our favorite animated family will be back for its 36th season next month. And it's not just any other season, the premiere episode will revolve around Bart Simpson's 11th birthday! Exciting, isn't it?
During the San Diego Comic-Con, TV executives revealed that the birthday bash will have some special guests in attendance. We're talking about big names like Tom Hanks, Danny DeVito, John Cena, and Conan O'Brien. It's a star-studded event indeed! Fans on Reddit couldn't contain their excitement and started speculating about the episode. Will DeVito's return mean the comeback of his iconic character, Uncle Herbert Powell?
For those who need a refresher, DeVito first appeared in the show as Homer's half-brother in 1991. It was quite a shock for Homer when his father, Abe, revealed that he had a secret half-brother who was put up for adoption. The family then met Herb, who was a successful businessman and had his own car company. However, things took a turn for the worse when Herb trusted Homer's crazy designs for a new car and ended up going bankrupt.
But don't worry, Herb's fortune was restored in season three thanks to his invention of a baby translator and some help from his brother. Although he hasn't made an appearance on the show since then, DeVito did record an answering machine message as Herb in season 24, revealing that he was once again "poor."
It's no surprise that The Simpsons is no stranger to celebrity cameos. We've seen big names like Michelle Obama, Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger, Lady Gaga, and Katy Perry grace our screens before. And now, with DeVito's highly-anticipated return, the 36th season is off to a star-studded start! But will Herb also make an appearance? The show's co-showrunner, Matt Selman, confirmed DeVito's involvement but didn't give any hints about Herb's return. All he said was that it's going to be a "crazy, star-studded premiere" with a "bold, big idea."
