FXX has just announced plans for the longest marathon in television history! Beginning Thanksgiving Day, a 600 episode The Simpsons marathon will span 300 hours (13 days) and include every episode of TV’s longest running series. The 27-season marathon begins at 12:00 PM ET on Thursday, November 24th and ends on Wednesday, December 6th at midnight ET. The Simpsons marathon will air in chronological order, beginning with the 1989 Simpsons Christmas special.

The Simpsons marathon will become the longest-running marathon in television history, surpassing the previous record holder, FXX’s 552-episode, 12-day Simpsons marathon, which ran from August 21, 2014 at 10 AM to September 1 at midnight. That marathon propelled the nascent FXX to cable’s #1-ranked network primetime in Adults 18-49 and Adults 18-34 for 12 consecutive days.

“The first ‘Every. Simpsons. Ever.’ Marathon was truly so special and landmark in its cultural relevance and impact,” says FX Networks President and COO Chuck Saftler. “The unprecedented feat of reaching 600 episodes deserves something of that caliber to mark it and celebrate it. Doing this is an act of true fandom, honoring Jim Brooks, Matt Groening, Al Jean, all the writers, artists, directors, people behind the scenes and the ridiculously talented voice actors who have brought this series to life and kept it at the pinnacle of artistic excellence these past 27+ seasons.”

FOX will debut the show’s record 28th season this Sunday, September 25th at 8:00 PM ET/PT, with the premiere episode featuring Amy Schumer as the featured guest-voice. In the episode, when Springfield is burned to the ground, the Simpsons beg Mr. Burns to fund its rebuilding. Burns agrees – with one condition: he gets to put on a variety show at the Springfield Bowl, on the all-new “Monty Burns’ Fleeing Circus.”

Well I finally have a reason to watch tv again.

How many years will Simpsons air?

"The year is 20 000 000 000 AD. The Sun has expanded to become a red giant star and later shrunk white dwarf star leaving the Earth uninhabitable behind. Humans have since long built spacecraft to fly for a new home on an Earth-like rocky planet orbiting a younger star. The planet is called "Second Earth".

It's evening on Second Earth. Suddenly the TV presenter says.
"-Hello everyone. Now over to this week's new episode of Simpsons!"..

I remember this marathon; it's great to see the evolution of the series when watching this marathon. ^_^

Lol. Once the cast retires, I'm sure anyone who can convincingly mimic their voices is set for life.
