For the box design, Fox have continued with the 'head' theme from Seasons 6-10, but appear to now be using the standard box shape. They now move into secondary characters with Krusty the Clown:
Jon Stewart, host of The Daily Show, will be voicing himself in an upcoming episode of The Simpsons, along with Dan Rather.
Timed with the release of the movie on DVD, several special Xbox 360 consoles have made their way on to eBay. The official boxes, from a batch of only 100 made, comprise of Homer's face on a yellow background, with The Simpsons Movie logo on the side. The controller is also yellow.
UK shopping giant Woolworths has signed a lucrative deal to promote The Simpsons Movie, due out on DVD Monday.
Matt Groening will redraw the store's puppet sheep and dog ad stars, Wooly and Worth, in Simpsons style.
Store fascia at 200 sites will be changed so the double 'o' in Woolworths is replaced by doughnuts - Homer Simpson's favourite treat.
Five Woolworth stores will be completely 'Simpsonised' by replacing the traditional red frontages with the cartoon's famous yellow, with life-size Homer and Bart Simpsons on hand. The coup is reckoned to be worth £5million to Woolworths.
Fox, which makes The Simpsons, transformed 12 North American 7-Elevens into real-life Kwik-E-Marts in July when The Simpsons Movie was first released.

(We're a bit late posting this news, but here it is.)
EA's forthcoming The Simpsons game parodies 30 years of videogaming and gaming IPs, but there are games companies that have refused to see the funny side of things.
Cartoon Network [adult swim] viewers were surprised and astonished this weekend when the network aired the uncensored version of the recent Family Guy episode "Movin' Out (Brian's Song)".
During the scene where Lois and Brian talk about whether or not Brian should move in with Jillian, a fake advertisement for The Simpsons with Marge appears on the bottom of the screen. Quagmire walks in and tries to rape Marge. Marge runs offscreen with Quagmire following her with his pants down. After Lois and Brian finish talking, Marge and Quagmire return while Marge exclaims how wonderful sex with Quagmire was; Quagmire suggests going to Marge's house for "round two." (Offscreen), Quagmire finishes having sex with Marge at The Simpson home, but then kills the entire Simpson family after they walk in on them (also offscreen). This scene was cut from the Fox airing, but aired on Global in Canada and on Adult Swim in the United States. The version shown on Fox cut abruptly to commercial prior to the scene referencing The Simpsons. US viewers can watch this on repeats of the episode on [adult swim] or wait for the Season 6 DVD.
Long time no updates from me...been pretty busy the last few weeks. Anywho... the Season 16 page has been updated again with some more info on upcoming episodes. A promo card for the recent episode 'Sleeping With The Enemy' has also been added to the gallery.
Furthermore, my reviews for all three new episodes of Season 16 have been added. You can see my reviews and members' reviews by following these links:
· Treehouse of Horror XV
· All's Fair in Oven War
· Sleeping With the Enemy
Not all great episodes, but worth watching, of course.
Finally, the contests have been updated. The last one went unupdated for over a month, hopefully this time it will be updated more quickly.
Season 16 starts this Sunday in the US, with the annual Treehouse of Horror episode...the fifteenth, in fact. And there's some nice-sounding episodes coming up too! Check out the Episode Guide where we've added a new Season 16 page. We will try and keep this updated as the Season progresses. And don't forget to go to the members section after a new episode airs to share your thoughts and to rate the episode!
Along the same lines I have added promotional images for two upcoming episodes: one for Treehouse of Horror XV and three from All's Fair In Oven War.
I have added some cool audio clips to the members section, from Inside The Actors Studio: The Simpsons. I have also reorganised the main page of the section, since it looked a little confusing before.
And just for fun, I've decided to post the top five episodes as rated by members:
1. Trilogy of Error
2. Who Shot Mr. Burns? (Part One)
3. You Only Move Twice
4. Homer vs. the Eighteenth Amendment
5. Bart vs. Australia
If you have not rated many episodes, now is your chance! The more ratings we have, the more accurate the list will be, and it only takes two minutes to do.
Along the same 'interactive' route, the contests are updated again. The previous answers were Homer: Bad Man for the Secret Sound and Lord Thistlewick Flanders for Which Character.
Ooh, this is a goodun! To start, we have a brand new, never-before-seen contest here at Simpson Crazy: Secret Sound. What you have to do is download a small sound bite, listen to it and say what episode it comes from. This contest replaces the Guess The Episode contest, but the Which Character? contest is still on-going.
The marking of the contests is now semi-automatic - I check each and every submission, but instead of having to copy-paste names onto the scoreboard or find names and move them, it's all done automatically. You must provide an email address for validation purposes, but don't worry, it won't be displayed anywhere on the site. Because of the changes, the scoreboards have been reset (you can view the old scoreboard here).
Go to the interactive page for more details and to play. Have fun!
A new script for The Springfield Files has been added, and there's more on the way soon. We also have four new pictures in the gallery, which can be seen by clicking the "More/Comment" link below.
Finally, there are two new wallpapers in the gallery, and I have modified another one (I wasn't totally happy with it). I also want to highlight a couple of others which were added with the merger but not posted, because I really like them (the Homer/Maggie one is on my desktop right now). Click "More/Comment" for details.
