The Simpsons Renewed Through 2023; Paramount+ Comedy Series Returns in April

Emmy Award-winning Animation Domination kingpin The Simpsons has been renewed for its 33rd and 34th seasons on Fox, carrying the series to 2023 and a total of 757 episodes. ¡Ay, caramba! "Woo Hoo! With any luck the show will soon be older than I am," noted Homer Simpson.
The longest-running primetime scripted show in television history, The Simpsons exploded into popular culture in 1990 and has remained one of the most groundbreaking and innovative entertainment franchises, recognizable throughout the world. Homer (Dan Castellaneta), Marge (Julie Kavner), Bart (Nancy Cartwright), Lisa (Yeardley Smith) and Maggie are instantly identifiable television icons. Rounding out this cast of characters are many beloved Springfield residents, including tavern proprietor Moe Szyslak (Hank Azaria) and nuclear power plant owner Mr. Burns (Harry Shearer).
The Emmy Award-, Annie Award- and Peabody Award-winning animated comedy began its 32nd season this past September and will celebrate a landmark 700th episode with the all-new episode, "Manger Things," airing Sunday, March 21 (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT). On the next all-new episode, "Yokel Hero" airing this Sunday, March 7 (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT), Cletus becomes a singing sensation, while Homer becomes a new man. Then Cletus turns on his fans, ruining everything. Albert Brooks makes a guest-voice appearance.

Paramount+, the highly anticipated streaming service from ViacomCBS launching today (March 4), announced that the fourth season of its original, half-hour comedy series No Activity will premiere on Thursday, April 8, with subsequent episodes dropping weekly. The season four trailer and key art were also released.
As previously announced, the upcoming season will feature the fan favorite No Activity characters in animated form. The series is co-developed, executive produced and written by Patrick Brammall and Trent O’Donnell. Brammall reprises his role as Special Agent Nick Cullen, who is finally realizing his dream of joining the FBI, only to quickly discover being an FBI “special agent” isn’t what he expected it to be. When he’s assigned to a seemingly dull observation detail, he finds a potential career case in the form of an emerging cult. When a large scale operation takes aim at the cult, it’s unclear which side will break first. Despite the promotion, Cullen’s path continues to cross with former partner Judd Tolbeck’s (Tim Meadows), who is also adjusting to life with a new partner of his own.
Joe Keery, Sunita Mani, Jason Mantzoukas, Bob Odenkirk and Amy Sedaris return and will be joined by an exciting group of new guest stars, including Louie Anderson, Kevin Bacon, Jillian Bell, D’Arcy Carden, Rob Delaney, Elle Fanning, Will Forte, Kimberly Hébert Gregory, Udo Kier, Lamorne Morris, Oscar Nuñez, Hannah Simone, June Squibb and Samara Weaving.
