Year-Long 20th Anniversary Celebration Kicks Off With Poster Contest

The 1990s introduced us to rollerblading, grunge music, slap bracelets and a yellow animated family from Springfield that took America by storm. Some fads come and go, but 20 years later THE SIMPSONS remains timeless.


Beginning January 14, 2009, FOX and THE SIMPSONS will launch the “Best. 20 Years.

Beginning tomorrow, THE SIMPSONS Poster Contest encourages fans to get creative and discover THE SIMPSONS in their everyday life.
Whether it’s a cob of corn that reminds them of Marge, a billowing cloud that looks like Homer or a picket fence that resembles the spikes of Bart’s hair, inspiration can be found anywhere! Fans over 18 will have an opportunity to design and submit posters using their original art and/or supplied assets found online at thesimpsons. com.
The deadline for poster submissions is 11:59 PM ET on March 4, 2009.

FALL OUT BOY UNLEASHES THEIR YELLOW AND ROCKS OUT

WITH THEIR VERSION OF “THE SIMPSONS” THEME SONG

 Band to Perform Rendition of Theme Song in End Credits

Sunday, January 25, on FOX

Emily Blunt Makes Guest Voice Appearance in Episode

Fall Out Boy pays homage to their fans and the citizens of Springfield when they perform their rendition of THE SIMPSONS theme song during the end credits of the “Lisa the Drama Queen” episode Sunday, Jan. 25 (8:00-8:30 PM ET/PT) on FOX.

Named after the sidekick of THE SIMPSONS character Radioactive Man, Fall Out Boy will honor their namesake by recording their own version of the iconic theme song originally composed by Danny Elfman.


Additionally, actress Emily Blunt makes a guest voice appearance in the episode as Lisa’s equally academic and creative new friend Juliet. Together they construct a fantasy world that takes them both a little too far from reality.


Formed in 2001 in the Chicago suburbs, Fall Out Boy, whose members are Patrick Vaughn Stump, Pete Wentz, Joe Trohman and Andrew Hurley, recently released their critically acclaimed fourth album, “Folie à Deux,” and will embark on a nationwide tour this April.
