Overview
- The 800th episode, titled “Irrational Treasure,” airs Sunday on Fox as part of a doubleheader, with a Philadelphia setting and a National Treasure–style premise centered on a dog show.
- Guest voices for the milestone include Quinta Brunson, Questlove, Kevin Bacon, Boyz II Men, Noah Wyle, Katherine LaNasa and Taylor Dearden.
- Fox has renewed the series through Season 40, keeping it on the air into 2029, and a second Simpsons feature film is scheduled for July 2027.
- Showrunner Matt Selman says there will be no traditional series finale, pointing to a previous parody finale and the series’ practice of resetting continuity each week.
- Selman clarified that Duffman is not retired, and the franchise’s reach spans Hulu for current episodes and Disney+ for earlier seasons as industry conversations continue about cast pay and AI voice‑cloning risks.
