The Simpsons aren't strangers to referencing the Holland festival, but they'll be back this Sunday just in time for the end of the 2022 Tulip Time Festival.
Just when Simpsons voice Hank Azaria seemed to turn a corner on the Apu controversy, creator Matt Groening drags us right back. The longtime producer accuses viewers of “pretending” the character is more offensive than they actually believe.
It’s been months since comedian Hari Kondabolu laid out The Problem With Apu, and The Simpsons at last responds. A short aside from Sunday’s latest sees Lisa brushing off the stereotype controversy as “something that started decades ago and was applauded and inoffensive,” and unlikely to be changed.
If you're a Detroit Lions fan, you're used to the jokes. Yeah, yeah, we're aware we've never played in a Super Bowl.
Somehow though, we keep the faith. It's just what Lions' fans do... even when TV shows like 'The Simpsons' take a shot at our Detroit Lions.
