The Simpsons Ride officially opened Thursday at the Universal Orlando Resort in Florida. Riders are swept into Krustyland, Krusty the Clown’s new theme park, just as maniacal Sideshow Bob escapes from prison and takes control of the park to exact his revenge on Krusty and the Simpson family.

“I take with all due sense of mission and humility the opportunity to spray water and spritz baby powder at Universal patrons,” Simpsons executive producer James L. Brooks said in a statement. “For 20 years I’ve been dreaming about this, and here it is – a wild, thrilling Simpsons Ride put together by a huge number of talented artists and amusement-park maniacs,” added creator Matt Groening.

Simpsons Returns For Season 19 In Australia
Australia, this one’s for you. The Simpsons has been notably absent from Channel Ten in 2008, with the 6:00pm daily slot on hold for the first time in quite a while. With the writers strike, Ten held off airing new episodes in February when the season usually begins.
The good news is, new episodes resume at 7.30pm Tuesdays starting May 6. The show will resume from Season 19, with ‘He Loves To Fly And He D’oh’s’ airing in the first slot.
While this is good news for fans, the bad news is the Friday repeat slot will be dropped the same week for Big Brother Friday Night Live.
