August 24, 2012 If you are you a big Simpson's fan? You’re in luck! Stamps featuring characters from the popular show were issued back in 2009 and 2010. Maybe you didn't get yours when they first came out, but it's not too late.
SpongeBob SquarePants has been called many things — violent, adult, insane and rude, for starters. But one word the show’s creators might not have seen coming in the onslaught of descriptors about their show is “amoral.”
Since delivering daughter Maxwell Drew Johnson on May 1, Jessica Simpson has been determined to shed the baby weight. Because she had a C-section, though, she was on doctor’s orders to not work out for at least six weeks, and Weight Watchers even stepped in to help her reach her goal. But now she’s at a bit of a standstill.
May 8, 2012 Lady Gaga will appear on the season finale of ‘The Simpsons’ on FOX on Sunday, May 20. She will be playing herself and has taken along a complete wardrobe change for the show, totaling 18 separate outfits. FOX has released an image of Gaga from her episode exclusively via EW and she looks fashion forward, even as a cartoon.
April 14, 2012 Sorry to burst your bubble, Oregon, but it looks like you're not the home of 'The Simpsons' after all. Earlier this week, we told you that 'Simpsons' creator Matt Groening had declared to 'Smithsonian Magazine' that Homer and Marge's clan calls Springfield, Oregon their home.
Groening now tells 'TV Guide' he was misquoted.
April 11, 2012 After 22 years of ambiguity, 'Simpsons' creator Matt Groening has finally revealed which Springfield is actually the inspiration for the town Bart and company have called home all these years.
It's not Springfield, Michigan. Time to fess up: You didn't even know there was a Springfield, Michigan, did you? I didn't either. (It's a little city near Battle Creek, with a population of about 5,000.) See, you learned something!
Katy Perry is headed to the small screen again. The pop diva booked a guest spot as a — get this! — prison attendant on Fox’s ‘Raising Hope.’ The episode is set to air on Tuesday, March 6 at 8 PM ET/PT and it’s called ‘Single White Female Role Model.’ From pop star to prison attendant: Katy Perry does it all.
Here’s a look at some notable birthdays being celebrated today:

‘The Simpsons,’ that prime time television show we all love, has done the impossible by staying on the air for 22 years and 500 episodes. This exceptional milestone was reached on Sunday evening on Fox. But is it still as good at 500 episodes as it was at 100?
As any fan of ‘The Simpsons‘ knows, Bart can be seen at the beginning of every episode writing on Ms. Krabappel’s blackboard. But after 23 seasons of the long-running cartoon, it can be difficult to keep all of Bart’s chalkboard mantras straight. Fortunately, CableTV.com has gathered them all in honor of the show’s 500th episode.
When we heard about ‘The Simpsons’ Ultimate Fan Marathon Challenge, in which ‘Simpsons’ fanatics would compete to see who could watch all 500 episodes of Springfield’s finest in a row, we said it couldn’t be done. Eighty-six hours and 37 minutes of continuous TV watching without any sleep just seemed too much for any human to endure, even though ‘Simpsons’ fans are made of strong stuff (and also beer and doughnuts).
It turns out we were wrong.
Richie Castellano’s one-man cover of Queen’s ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ is pretty amazing, but Nick McKaig’s take on the theme from ‘The Simpsons‘ is even more impressive since he uses nothing but his voice.
