This is excellent news:

Homer, Bart and the rest of The Simpsons gang will be sticking around the tube for a while as Fox announced Friday it has reupped the classic cartoon series for two more years. Dismissing talk that the show, now in its 14th season, has been played out, Fox's move guarantees the 'toon will run through an eye-popping 16th season and rack up at least 360 episodes.

I'm sure that my Tivo will take care of the rest. :-)

i can't tell if this is good or bad news...i think i would have preferred that they would have kept Futurama around and put the Simpsons out to pasture...

i agree with you brandt. when the simpsons moved from having a major and a minor storyline per show, it was a good indication that stories were becoming scarce.

seinfeld went out at the height of it's popularity, maybe the simpsons should pack it in as well?

Come On! This is great news. Its the Simpsons for gosh sakes. When there is no room on TV for the Simpsons then I am not sure I want to watch. Yes Futurama should still be on but not in place of it. With all the crap thats on these days however bad the Simpsons could get (and believe me it is not bad - but just in case you think it is) it is nothing compared to the drivel that is on. Two more years!
