At this point too maybe the voice actors' deaths might not be enough to end the show, but I think when Jim Brooks eventually goes then the staff won't have as much pull with Fox regarding the show.  The biggest reason the show has gone on as long as it has, the biggest reason the show succeeded for years without network interference, hell the reason the show ever made it onto Fox airwaves, is Brooks.  Fox is frankly intimidated by him, always has been, but once he's gone they might not see much reason to keep the show around.
Damn, someone Fox is scared of?! Does he shoot lightning out of his ass?

The whole reason the Simpsons Movie was made was because his previous film flopped. Brooks has a LOT of pull in the industry.

I mean, The Mary Tyler Moore Show is still one of the few series with an equal or greater influence in the industry besides The Simpsons itself. Make that, and you're bound to have some pull.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

QuoteIn the premiere, it's discovered after all the years Homer has narcolepsy and it's an incredible strain on the marriage. Homer and Marge legally separate, and Homer falls in love with his pharmacist, who's voiced by Lena Dunham. We'll have cameos from the other women from "Girls."

They've already been "legally separated", but whatever.

This plot has been probably the most overdone plot in the past twenty five years of the show. It was even a major part of the movie. Why they think it's still a selling point (and adding in the Dunham on top of it) is far beyond me.

This doesn't reek of desperation. Nope. Not at all.
