Fans of The Simpsons have been left shocked by how the voice of Mr. Burns sounds in the latest season of the show.The FOX series has been running for more than three decades, and as a result much of the voice cast have gotten considerably older than when the first season aired.Mr.Burns hasn’t always been played by the same actor, with the late Christopher Collins being the first to take on the iconic role.He was later taken over by Harry Shearer, who also provides the voice for characters including Principal Skinner, Kent Brockman, Waylon Smithers, Ned Flanders and Reverend Lovejoy, among others.Shearer, who is now 80-years-old, continues to voice characters in what is now the 35th season and a clip from the latest episode has gone viral for all the wrong reasons.Fans have claimed Burns sounds nothing like he once used to, and many have taken to social media to urge Fox to “let the show rest in peace”.“Burns’ voice is just brutal man.

The Simpsons has been criticised online by fans of the show.The song premiers tonight (May 13) in the latest episode of the show and is called ‘Little E.U’ and features lyrics about tipping waiters and restaurant staff in Europe. The song features several vocoder moments from the main characters and is set to an electronic beat.The Simpsons, now in its 35th season, was well known for iconic songs in its earliest seasons, such as ‘The Monorail Song’, ‘See My Vest’ and ‘Talkin’ Softball’.On the show’s official Twitter feed, fans were initially optimistic as programme makers described the show’s new musical endeavour as “song of the summer”, suggesting a return to the show’s most popular songs.

The Simpsons star Harry Shearer has suggested that the recasting of Dr Hibbert has “affected” his former character.The actor was replaced in the role by Kevin Richardson in 2021, after the long-running animated sitcom decided the year before that white actors would no longer voice non-white roles in the series.Shearer previously voiced Hibbert, who is Black, from the show’s inception, and in a new interview with The Times reflected on the change.“Folk say the show has become woke in recent years and one of my characters has been affected,” he said. “I voiced the Black physician, Dr Hibbert, who I based on Bill Cosby.

Eurovision entrant Windows95Man quickly drew comparisons to a famous Bart Simpson moment when the singer took to the stage this weekend.Windows95man – real name Teemu Keisteri – performed at the song contest’s grand final at Malmö Arena, Sweden on Saturday (May 11), where Switzerland’s Nemo ultimately won.Dressed in a Windows 95 cap and T-shirt for his song ‘No Rules!’, Windows95man was seemingly naked from the bottom half down and kept up the illusion with some help from the cameramen and his dancers.He even faked a NSFW ‘reveal’ to the live crowd before his denim shorts were lowered down for the outfit chance.While behind-the-scenes pictures reveal that the singer was wearing a pair of skin-coloured modesty underwear, the stunt reminded viewers of the famous moment in The Simpsons Movie where Bart is skateboarding naked through town – and also protected by a series of objects before a brief reveal.“In case you have missed Finland’s performance at the Eurovision song contest tonight, it was pretty much a butt naked inspired Simpson episode and people loved it,” one X user wrote.“This is basically every Simpsons episode that involves nudity,” another wrote.BBC commentator Graham Norton also gave his take on the gag, telling the audience (via Yahoo!): “I would normally find a song like this quite resistible, but I have to say when I was in the arena for the semi-final the other night, I really liked the silly, I just really embraced the silly and it was joyful and lovely… and distracting and great.“You’ve seen quite a lot of male nudity tonight… well, stand by for some more!” he added.

“The Simpsons” viewers were shocked when the series unexpectedly killed off Larry “The Barfly” Dalrymple. And now co-executive producer Tim Long is reacting to the aftermath.According to TMZ, Long and the creative team behind the long-running sitcom wanted Larry’s death to hit the audience hard.Despite him not having a major role, the Fox series doesn’t often say goodbye to its fictional characters — which made this storyline a huge deal.Larry, who was often seated next to his friend Sam at Moe’s tavern, died on the latest episode of Season 35.

empty barstool at Moe’s Tavern.Fox’s long-running sitcom “The Simpsons” killed off one of its familiar characters Sunday night — Larry the Barfly.Larry, who was often seated next to his friend Sam, was (a fictional) 42 years old.While casual fans might not know the balding man by name, Larry has had a spot at Moe’s since, at least, Season 1’s “Homer’s Odyssey” that aired back in January 1990 — more than 34 years ago.He appeared sporadically over the years, rarely saying a word.But in the Season 2 episode “Bart Gets Hit by a Car,” the drunk checks out Marge Simpson and shouts, “Who’s the chick?”Sunday night in the Season 35 episode “Cremains of the Day,” Larry died, and Homer, Moe and fellow bar regulars Lenny and Carl went on a road trip to scatter his ashes.As Larry was a background character only — with little known about him beyond his fondness for booze and incoherently muttering — the script references how vague his story is.Homer and Co., who realize that they hardly knew the guy, feel lousy when Larry’s mother tells them that he described the Moe’s gents as his “best friends,” and asked them to share some “fond memories.” They make up a bogus fishing tale.Longtime fans were shocked by the loss.“Just learned they are killing off Larry on The Simpsons tomorrow. I need a minute,” one posted on X.

The Simpsons has killed off a character who has been around for almost 35 years.The animated series is currently in its 35th season, having made its debut in 1989. Most of the show’s iconic characters have continued to feature throughout the decades, meaning fans were shocked to learn of the death of a classic Springfield resident, often seen in the background of one of its establishments.In last weekend’s episode, titled Cremains Of The Day, viewers saw the death of Larry the barfly, a regular at Moe’s Tavern, where he eventually dropped dead.In the episode, Homer, Moe, Lenny and Carl attend his funeral, where they realise they knew little about him given the number of years they had all known each other, causing Homer to ask if they might be “terrible people”.Larry’s mother made a tribute at the funeral, in which she mentioned the bar’s regulars, saying: “My Lawrence always talked about his best friends, the fellows at Moe’s Tavern,” before encouraging them to come up and say a few words about him.The four are then tasked with taking Larry’s ashes to his “special place”, Serenity Falls, after being gifted a group photograph of them all together, by Larry’s mother.Fans of The Simpsons are taking to social media to express their thoughts on a rare death in the show.

The Simpsons has been around for an impressive 35 seasons, which means many of us have grown up on the much-loved American cartoon. Despite spending many afternoons binge-watching the show, there is one little detail that some fans have only just started to wonder.Why in 35 years have any of the main characters not aged? The fact was recently brought up by Facebook user, Peace Matters, who asked the question in one of his well-known reels. “So THIS is why they don’t age?! SIMPSONS RUINED,” he wrote, adding the caption: “It took me 27 years to realise THIS about The Simpsons.”As it turns out – or maybe just a whack theory put forward by the mega fan – there is a reasonable explanation for why Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and every other character on The Simpsons, don’t age and it can be found in an episode that aired back in season four of the long-running animation.
