‘The Simpsons’ could end after season 40: Nancy Cartwright, voice of Bart Simpson, predicts show's future
Nancy Cartwright, who has voiced Bart Simpson since 1987, has predicted that The Simpsons may end after its 40th season, while making it clear she'd be happy to continue if the show decides to run longer.
Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart Simpson on the long-running animated sitcom The Simpsons, has revealed that the show may conclude after its 40th season. Cartwright made this prediction during an appearance on Michael Rosenbaum's podcast, Inside of You. She stated, "40 [seasons]", though she emphasized that this is "my opinion" and the decision ultimately lies with the show's producers.
If the network were to extend the show's run, Cartwright expressed openness to continuing her role as a voice on the series. She also noted that the show's move to Disney+ and its arrival on Fox's Animation Domination lineup have helped attract a new generation of viewers. The Simpsons is currently the longest-running American scripted primetime series, having surpassed Gunsmoke in 2009 with 808 episodes aired.
