New Episode: The Boys Of Bummer
Bart becomes a hero when he makes the game-winning catch at his Little League game, sending the Springfield Isotots to the Little League championship for the first time ever. However, Springfield turns on him when he drops an easy pop fly in the bottom of the ninth, losing the game for his team. As the citizens of Springfield continue to mock and terrorize Bart, his guilt and shame threaten to send him over the edge. Meanwhile, after falling asleep in a department store display bed, Homer is saved from disaster when a customer mistakes Homer’s crafty excuses for a sales pitch, leading the store owner to hire Homer as a salesperson. When the Lovejoys return a mattress they had purchased in hopes of spicing up their sex life, they find success on Homer’s personal mattress and convince him to trade, a transaction Homer and Marge immediately regret and seek to remedy.
The Simpsons Judge Simon Cowell
Simon Cowell met his match when the Simpsons panned his attempt at singing The Pussycat Dolls’ hit Don’t Cha in a special TV charity show.

Idol Gives Back screened by US TV included live performances from Annie Lennox and Kelly Clarkson as well as the talent show’s contestants. You can view the Simpsons clip below.
Simpsons Movie Trailer 70% Fake?
Think you know what The Simpsons Movie is about? Think again. Simpsons Producer James L Brooks claims that 70% of the theatrical trailer is not even in the finished film: “It started out as people wanting to know what it was about, and then we were having fun with it, putting out false story lines. We’ve revealed more with each successive trailer. We’ll continue to do that,” Brooks told EW. “We saw a trailer the other day, and somebody said 70 percent of the things in it — based on where we were eight weeks ago — are no longer in the movie, because we keep on fooling around.” Brooks also revealed that “there are 94 speaking parts [so far]. And our animals don’t speak,” and “at least one [new character]. If you count nonhuman, two.”
Meanwhile, Newsweek is reporting that we’ll be seeing more of Bart Simpson than anybody wants to in the movie. “In one shocking moment, little Bart flashes his little part to the entire world. Which may make this the first Hollywood film to show that kind of skin and to escape an R rating.” And we’re going to leave that one alone.
