The Simpsons' producer clarifies Marge's death
Selman clarified that Marge's Death is not considered canon, stating that the show has no consistent canon due to numerous contradictory flash-forwards.
The episode, set 35 years in the future, depicted Homer at Marge's grave, but Marge later appeared in a pre-recorded message and then in heaven.
Selman suggested that media outlets created misleading headlines about Marge's Death to generate traffic, despite knowing it was not a permanent plot point.
The long-running animated series has been renewed for four more seasons, ensuring it will surpass 800 episodes.

Machine Gun Kelly buys daughter a moderately priced first car... but issues her a stern warning
Machine Gun Kelly is a proud father-of-two, and he recently celebrated a milestone for his firstborn child, daughter Casie. The 35-year-old music artist — who recently revealed what parenting comment left ex-girlfriend Megan Fox 'fuming' — purchased Casie her first car for her 16th birthday in July. As he surprised her with the new wheels, he had one rule: 'Don't drive like your dad.' In a viral video shared by a fan page on X, the teenager gushed over a black Acura TLX that her rock star dad gifted her, complete with a red bow. And the Cliché hitmaker, who now goes by mgk, said about the moderately priced car: 'I don't know why it's her dream car, but it's her dream car.' mgk gifted his 16-year-old daughter casie her dream car. "don't drive like your dad" 😭 #mgk #machinegunkelly #colsonbaker machine gun kelly — mgkmagic (@mgkmagic) August 11, 2025 According to Business Insider, the sleek sedan ranges from $45,400-$62,000 — a small price for the artist, whose net worth is an estimated $25 million. Casie will have to pass an exam to get her driver's license before she can fully enjoy her new gift. 'It runs in the family, dude. We can't get a license to save our lives,' the Cleveland-bred rapper said in the clip. In addition to Casie, he became a dad for the second time earlier this year when he welcomed a baby girl named Saga Blade Fox-Baker with ex-girlfriend Megan. While appearing on the Today show's video series 8 Before 8 in July, he revealed that he picked his younger daughter's name. 'Well, I lost the first one and won the second one,' he answered when asked, 'As a father of two girls, what was the name choosing process like?' He elaborated, 'When you are 18-years-old and you go to her mother and you go, "What if we named our kid Kid?" I get why she's like, "Hey man, shut up."' He confessed with a laugh, 'That was one of the names. I was like, "If her name was Kid, that would be sick."' And while on Today in June he explained the meaning behind his newborn's name. 'She is an epic story. That's what saga means,' he said of the moniker. Referencing his ex Megan's prior miscarriage, he added that he was inspired by 'her journey — the five years of her culmination of coming, disappearing, coming back again, disappearing, coming back again.' He also connected the name to his Norwegian background, stating, 'That's the Nordic goddess of storytelling. So, she has a storytelling future ahead of her.' Fans previously mistakenly thought the exes had named their daughter 'Celestial Seed' due to the caption mgk used when announcing her birth. Sharing an Instagram video holding his baby girl's tiny hand in March, he captioned, 'She's finally here!! our little celestial seed. 3/27/25.'
