Despite The Simpsons ‘ Season 36 premiere being dubbed the “series finale,” the long-running animated show has no plans to go away anytime soon. However, showrunner Matt Selman has some ideas in mind for how things should end when the time comes.

The Simpsons showrunner Matt Selman has addressed how the show could potentially end, sharing that it wouldn’t be done in the traditional way.

The Season 36 premiere of 'The Simpsons' presented itself as the series finale, only to reveal that the storyline was AI-generated.

In an interview with the New York Post, Selman reflected on the challenges of ending a show like The Simpsons. “The show isn’t meant to end,” he said. “To do a sappy crappo series finale, like most other shows do, would be so lame.” Instead, he envisions the final episode as “just a regular episode… a really good story about the family.”
