I think I saw in a news article that fox would make more money showing reruns of the simpsons if it was cancelled than if they kept making new episodes. Whatever the truths or falsities of that claim, I doubt Fox would give up the rights.

If it really is ending I'm just hoping they end it properly.

Season 24 will be the final series of the simpsons? This will be quite a surprise to Fox, seeing as they renewed the simpsons to go to at least series 25

Great reporting OP.

All good things must come to an end. I'll try to member it for what it did in its prime. I'll act like the past few years like it was senile. After all, people don't give a crap about what happened to Joe Louis after he left the army (utterly pathetic life, its heartbreaking to see a man like that fall so low-but at least he kept his moral compass... mostly), people view him as an idol for what he did in his prime.

Oh, god... I just realized something; I think the world will actually end in 2012! Think about it...

First, a Black Man is made President of a country which is literally infamous for it's history of racism and black slavery.

Both of America's most wanted international criminals are caught and killed, depriving it's people from a tangible yet unattainable bogeyman.

Duke Nukem Forever, the game that was never made, is released, and despised.

Japan is struck by a tsunami which causes a nuclear meltdown; nearly two, in fact.

Fox cancels the show to outlast all shows, the mighty yellow Juggernaut itself, whose merchandise alone is paralleled only by mickey freaking mouse...

and on December 12, 2012, 'Yog Sethis the Silent God will open its' twelve mouths for the first time, and so shall be sung the Song of Destruction, and I will weep tears of blood, for it will be the end of days. As the world fades into madness, His name will be on our lips:

'Yog Sethis! Ia! Ia!

Anyone betting Comedy Central will try to resurrect it later?
at lease when Comedy Central gets its hands on it you can expect some better writing. The newer seasons are Futurama are so damn good.

It was a great run (a couple seasons ago). In a way it's sort of sad but at the same time, a good thing, just would have continued on being not funny anymore if it wasn't gonna stop.

Come on people, all together.

FINA-FUCKING-LY.

I personally stopped liking the Simpsons around when I was 12. And even before then I was a bit sick of it. As always, I blame the general public.

I hope Matt Groening releases a DVD of his favorite episodes or a documentary about the entire run.

As much as I love the Simpsons even I feel that the show should have ended a long time ago.

My favorite episode is when they did Flowers for Algernon, except it was with Homer and a crayon in his brain.

Goodbye my yellow friends, you have brought me many laughs over the last two and half decades.

If season 24 is the last Simpsons season the writers need to bring their A game because a show like The Simpson deserves to bow out in style.

When it finally does go off the air they better not give another show to Seth MacFarlane
Here's another appropriate video to this opinion [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFNWjay28-Q]

Yes, which is the point! The world doesn't just end all at once, there a build-up of strange going's on first. Still, all this happening in a four-year period seems a bit sketchy, and the blood-dripping and indecipherable runes appearing on my forehead only solidify my gut feeling that something bad is going to happen.

The link posted by the OP has now been updated; it now says that Fox have confirmed a further two seasons. Since this take its to 25, there'll be a special anniversary episode but there's no mention of whether this will bring the curtain down on the show.

Glad it has been pointed out that there will be at least 25 seasons. Its aggravating to see how people want to say "KILL IT BECAUSE I PERSONALLY DONT LIKE IT!!!"
Because really, if you dont like it, you know there are better things you could be doing than watching it or complaining about it on an internet forum.

Yanno even with its current ratings its still drawing 7 million US viewers. Thats better than more than half of what is on network television. So obviously some people still like it. So its a good thing that the 25 season mark has yet to be decided if it will in fact be the finale or if the show will push onward to 30 years.

I really hate to use it, but its so beyond fitting that there is no other choice.

How do I convey my belief that the show died over a decade ago without sounding cliche, eh fuck it who cares.

Good riddance to bad tv, ffs there might be a seasons worth of good episodes over the last decade, I view its end as more of the corpse dust blowing away after years of putrifaction and decay and then there is nothing left and it is gone.
