26 Facts About the Simpsons to Embiggen The Most Cromulent of Brains

The Simpsons did it. No, really, after soon to be 34 seasons of animated yellow hijinks, it truly feels like The Simpsons have actually done it all. Throw a dart at a board of cultural events, and there's a great chance The Simpsons have covered, satirized, or parodied it in some capacity. There are no signs it slowing down any time soon, and we don't envy any writers still wringing “D'Ohs!” and “Eat My Shorts” out of the titular family and their army of side characters… Even when they manage to spice things up with a litany of fun guest stars.
As you may have guessed by clicking into this list, here's a bunch of fun facts about everyone's favorite four fingered yellow dudes, and the guest stars who have rolled into Springfield for brief periods of time. Here's to another 34 seasons, The Simpsons-- We're rooting for you, even if it's primarily because it'd be insane if it outlives us all.
Laurel & Hardy's "D'oh!"
