The writers behind The Simpsons have struck again.

Morrissey was apparently quite upset over the parody of him on The Simpsons over the weekend.

The Simpsons recently struck a chord with former Smiths frontman Morrissey, whose manager Peter Katsis chewed out the long-running Fox animation show for “trying to capitalize on cheap controversy and expounding on vicious rumors.”

Morrissey has hit out at The Simpsons for their ‘hateful’ and ‘racist’ portrayal of him.

Morrissey issued a harsh rebuke of "The Simpsons" after the animated sitcom unflatteringly parodied him during its latest episode. Sunday's episode, titled "Panic On The Streets Of Springfield," sees 8-year-old Lisa Simpson become enamored by a British singer from the 1980s, voiced by guest star Benedict Cumberbatch with lyrics by "Flight of the Conchords" star Bret McKenzie.

Jem Aswad Senior Music EditorWhile “The Simpsons”’ parody of a “depressed British singer from the 1980s” — clearly styled at least partially on erstwhile Smiths frontman Morrissey — has gotten rave reviews in many quarters, the man himself is apparently less than thrilled. The singer was satirized as an imaginary friend of Lisa Simpson’s named Quilloughby, from a fictional band called the Snuffs, who, like Morrissey, was a vegan with a quiff a glum outlook.The character was voiced by Benedict Cumberbatch; the episode was titled “Panic on the Streets of Springfield,” in reference to the group’s 1986 single, and it features many references to the singer (an Oscar Wilde poster) and the Smiths’ album artwork.

"The Simpsons" has hit yet another landmark. The long-running adult cartoon aired its 700th episode, "Manger Things" on March 21, a little over halfway through its 32nd season.

predicting the Trump presidency, the same episode of “The Simpsons” is now being credited for foreseeing another momentous political event: Kamala Harris becoming vice president.

Score another totally absurd but shockingly accurate prediction into the future for The Simpsons. The FOX animated show has had a long track record of making fun of things that would likely never occur, but ultimately did. The most famous one featured future president Lisa Simpson complaining in 1999 episode about inheriting “quite a budget crunch from President Trump,” who actually became POTUS in 2016. Now they’ve done it again, by predicting the riots Trump incited on Jan. 6, 2021, where he encouraged followers to head to the U.S. Capitol and “fight” Congress certifying Joe Biden‘s Nov. 3, 2020 presidential win via the Electoral College.
