The Simpsons Showrunner Says it Will Not Stop Doing its Longest Running Gag
The ongoing joke where Homer Simpson chokes Bart in a comically violent manner on “The Simpsons” isn’t likely to stop soon, despite the show suggesting last season that it might. Fans of the long-running animated series are familiar with Homer’s less-than-perfect fathering and the amusing moments it produces. Some viewers thought this joke might be phased out following the show’s lighthearted mention of it.
