CNN —Toward the end of its 35th season, “The Simpsons” made a move that rankled some fans: It killed a longtime resident of Springfield.
I would say under 10,” said Matt Selman, sardonic showrunner of “The Simpsons,” in an interview with CNN.
There are around 16 writers per season, typically made up of 22 episodes, though this season has just 18 due to the 2023 writers’ and actors’ strikes.
Last month, Sosthand won a Writers Guild Award for the episode, beating out three other nominees from the “Simpsons” writers room.
It’s nice that their hard work has been noticed, Selman said, but critical appraisal of “The Simpsons” is always in flux.
