Homer Appears at Comic Con and Someone Dies on ‘The Simpsons’ Premiere

It only took 25 seasons and the impending start of season 26 for Homer Simpson to make it the San Diego Comic Con. Homer appeared onstage with series creator Matt Groening who was at the Con to celebrate 25 years of The Simpsons. During the show’s panel in Ballroom 20 of the San Diego Convention Center, Groening also treated fans of the series to a special clip from the first episode of season 26. And in the season premiere (“Clown in the Dumps”) airing on September 28, 2014 at 8pm ET/PT, a character will die. That’s right, die.
