The Simpsons are going to 800. Fox announced on Wednesday its fall premiere dates, including The Simpsons season 36, which will take the animated comedy -- already TV's longest-running primetime scripted series ever -- to the 800-episode mark . The already-renewed new animated comedy Universal Basic Guys will kick off Fox's fall season Sunday, Sept. 8th, immediately following the FOX NFL doubleheader (8:00 p.m. ET/5:00 p.m. PT), before moving to its time-period premiere as part of the 2024 Animation Domination lineup alongside all-new seasons of The Simpsons , Bob's Burgers , and Krapopolis .
First up is The Simpsons season 36 premiere, "Bart's Birthday," at 8:00 p.m. ET/PT, followed by Universal Basic Guys (8:30 p.m. ET/PT), the Bob's Burgers season 15 premiere (9:00 p.m. ET/PT), and the Krapopolis season 2 premiere (9:30 p.m. ET/PT).
"With the help of our animators, we had a full slate of shows this year, which looked terrific," Simpsons co-showrunner Al Jean said in a recent interview . "We did have to just take a break for four months because of the strike, which I'm glad we did, that was what we should have done. But I think the show is in fantastic shape. I'm biased, but I think that the current episodes are, whether I work on one, a lot or not, are great. And I think that the future is bright, it's gonna go to 800, and I hope 1000."
Below, see the 2024 Animation Domination lineup, followed by the full Fox fall 2024 premiere dates schedule.
The Simpsons Season 36
In The Simpsons Season 36 premiere, Bart celebrates the most shocking birthday party of his entire life - one that might just change everyone in Springfield forever. Season 36 also brings two terrifying Halloween episodes! In "Treehouse of Horror XXXV," giant monsters created by political rage threaten to tear the town apart, a Victorian Mr. Burns is jump-scared on Thanksgiving by the ghosts of his abused workers, and Homer bonds with a pair of extra-terrestrial jeans in an unforgettable stop-motion adventure that can only be called... Denim. In the bonus fright-fest, "Treehouse of Horror Presents: Simpsons Wicked This Way Comes," a tattooed man at a mysterious night circus transports Lisa into three strange stories from the innocent 1950s, the chilling retro-present, and a brutalist future where prestige TV rules the world. The Simpsons Season 36 is exploding with amazing stories! Grampa reveals his secret past as a 1980s-era private detective, The Simpsons encounter death on vacation at a high-end resort in "Yellow Lotus," and Lisa has a blazing misadventure in the dark world of Capital City's downtown art scene
Universal Basic Guys Season 1
Universal Basic Guys makes its time-period premiere as part of the Animation Domination line-up. This season, Mark and Hank try to reconnect with their primal roots by purchasing an automatic heat-seeking crossbow to hunt deer; Mark buys a championship football ring on eBay and leverages it to get special treatment from his hometown team; and Mark wants to get Tammy a fancy exotic animal for their anniversary but can only afford a former laboratory chimpanzee, who promptly rips off his face.
Bob's Burgers Season 15
Emmy Award-winning Bob's Burgers returns for its 15th season. The series centers on the working-class Belcher family -- parents Bob and Linda and their three children, Tina, Gene, and Louise -- who run a seaside New Jersey hamburger restaurant and their adventures interacting with the eccentric members of their community. This season, Bob must face his fears and join Louise in a father-daughter boogie boarding competition; Tina becomes the columnist for the anonymous "Ask an Eighth Grader" advice column; and when the Belchers' landlord, Mr. Fischoeder, offers them two months free rent in exchange for catering an important reception at his house, the family must do everything they can to ensure the event goes perfectly.
Krapopolis Season 2
Krapopolis , the animated comedy from Emmy Award-winner, creator, and executive producer Dan Harmon ( Rick and Morty, Community ) is set in mythical ancient Greece, and tells the story of a dysfunctional family of humans, gods and monsters trying to run one of the world's first cities, while also trying their best to not kill each other in the process. In the upcoming season, the city is overrun with debauchery as the annual Ice Week festival comes to Krapopolis; Deliria and Shlub want to prove to Tytannis that they understand the value of human life but keep accidentally killing the servants; and in order to get Krapopolis on the newly-invented map, Tyrannis enlists Hippocampus to open the city's first restaurant.
