‘The Simpsons’ Season 35 Unveils an Extended Trailer

Fox’s extended trailer for The Simpsons season 35 requires multiple viewing as it teases so much of what’s in store. The minute-long trailer was released in advance of the upcoming season 35 premiere which airs on Sunday, October 1, 2023 at 8pm ET/PT.

Season 35 kicks off with an episode titled “Homer’s Crossing,” which finds Homer volunteering as a school crossing guard after feeling worthless at work. Because Homer’s involved, drama ensues when his safety squad receives too much funding and the crossing guards become a force to be feared.

Fox also released this description of the new season of television’s longest-running primetime scripted series:

The Simpsons exploded into a cultural phenomenon in 1990 and has remained one of the most groundbreaking and innovative entertainment franchises, recognizable throughout the world. The Emmy Award-, Annie Award-, and Peabody Award-winning animated comedy recently aired its 750th episode and will begin its 35th season this fall.

This season, Marge experiences a series of nightmares about young Bart’s childhood coming to an end; Homer accidentally volunteers for a school crossing guard position; sixty years in the future, Lisa recounts the story of how Homer was scapegoated for a power outage that plunged Springfield into darkness days before Thanksgiving; and the annual chilling trilogy ‘Treehouse of Horror XXXIV’ is back!”
