The Simpsons and Family Guy come together
MUMBAI: Someone once said that it is always exciting to meet someone new, regardless of the outcome. However, the meeting that is being proposed here will have some very exciting outcomes indeed. Television viewers are going to have a treat when two cartoon shows will come together for one episode to be called ‘The Simpson Guy’.
The episode featuring the Simpson family will be a special one in The Family Guy series where the Griffins will take a road trip to Springfield and end up meeting The Simpsons family.
Fox announced that the episode which will be aired in autumn 2014 will have the five voice actors of the Simpson family lending their voices for ‘The Simpson Guy’. The chemistry between the two suburban families will spark off well, as per them, with Stewie taking to Bart’s jokes and the two housewives to bond well. Peter Griffin and Homer Simpson will discuss various types of beers.
Over the years, there have been many instances when the two families have poked fun at each other in their shows but have become amicable now. The Simpsons has just concluded 24 seasons and is the longest running show on Prime Time while The Family Guy is got done with 10 seasons.
The show is sure to generate a lot of buzz among viewers with this mega journey. The biggest winner will be Fox, which is the producer of both shows.
