Of the 5.





Fox are horrified as the ratings, internet hits and merch sales for all Simpsons shit continues to plummet more than the chances of Jan 6ers actually facing any punishment.

In order to get attention and put the Simpsons back in the headlines the big wigs at Fox decide they need to shock everyone. Remembering the death of Maude and Brian Griffin they decide to combine the two and have a dramatic/sad episode where one of the main family flat out unexpectedly dies for good.

One of them has to go. No coming back next season, they're dead in canon.

Who would you pick?

Honestly, if this happened, it would probably be Marge. Her voice is starting to get really rough on Julie Kavner and she'd probably like to retire at some point.

I haven't watched in a very long time, isn't it really centered around Homer at this point? If that's the case, and there's no chance in Hell of bumping off one of the kids because it would be too dark, it would have to be Marge.

Different ideas

Homer gets cancer from his work at the plant

Marge dies in a car crash, distracted by Bart and Lisa in the back seat fighting

Lisa gets on the nerves of a new girl bully at school and ends up murdered

Bart finally succumbs to Sideshow Bob

Maggie is left in a hot car by Homer and well....

It's not a one sided affair. I'm not stunned at the numbers for Lisa. The character has become an unstable bitch as the show has gone on. That's who I'd vote for. I wish they would bring back the Tracey Ullman version of her here and there.

Marge, but age up the others by 5 years.
Lisa can be the replacement for Marge (except for being Homer's wife), and Maggie will be the Lisa replacement but without Lisa's "development" from latee seasons

Marge, if only because god does Julie Kavner sound like she just can't do the voice anymore.

It could also add some cool dynamic changes where Homer can still act like an idiot, but repeatedly has to control himself because his wife isn't there.

Just aging everyone up would be such a refreshing change of pace - Simpsons is really stale right now (which after 33 seasons, duh) and it makes even the good-great episodes that come out now fade into the ether.

It's really too late to try and change up the formula.

Frankly, they could do ANYthing with the show and I wouldn't care.

Marge would get Maude'd.

You can't kill a child and Homer is by far the most popular character.

Disney would have Homer date a transwoman (in one episode so that they could pull it from circulation when the series is featured overseas -- or broadcast in Texas) before marrying a Black woman.

I know the show has gotten extremely liberal over the years, but I don't think they'd go that far for Homer. I wouldn't think Disney would be that stupid to intervene and tell the shows writers to do that.

Bart is annoying but Lisa tends to make an episode boring.
Maggie brings little to the table but can make a scene more fun/interesting. Marge would be my second pick since she's mostly there to nag but she is often times required for Homers' shenannigans (but obviously not required). Homer is simply the best part of the show.
So first to go is Lisa then Marge, then Maggie and finally Bart. Leave Homer be.

The idea was that she is required for his shenannigans sometimes (something that pisses her off or messes with their marriage), but not required for all of his own shenannigans. It's obviously worded poorly but I'll leave it like that.
