'The Simpsons' is over.
With potentially only one more season; it’s 24th (why not go for a crisp 25?). It seems it’s rather costly to make new episodes, and the show is making plenty of money with it’s old ones (duh).
Their conclusion is that The Simpsons will continue to generate money for a long time with or without new shows, and so paying out high salaries to actors and producers may no longer make sense. The Wrap says that Fox “wants The Simpsons for one more season at most,” and that season will only happen if the show costs 25-30% less than it does now. The cuts proposed to actors are in line with cuts proposed to others involved in the show. The object here is not for the actors to pay personally for the reduction. The cost is that the cast is a component of the show, all of which is being downsized to do a final season.
Could have stopped it at season 8 for fuckssakes - amirite, EVERYONE?
Ewwwwww
