Just making a friendly reminder for everyone, whether you are a fan of the show or not, to make a note of this very special episode (550th one I might add) that will happily coincide with the release of the Minifigures series for The Simpsons.

TLG plans are wicked, videogames, TV episodes on CN, a movie, a Lego Simpson's episode on national TV, what's next?

They are really ingraining themselves into pop culture and coing an amazing job. 

ooo will have to remember to watch this!

So when are they going to announce the lego simpsons video game??? Just take the old school simpsons arcade game and convert everything to legos!

I know you all knew about this already, but here is an official blurb from Entertainment Weekly.

Really looking forward to this.  Could cause a spike in demand for the Simpsons set as well... short term supply issue based flipping chance perhaps?

I would say so. I will make sure I have a set on hand just in case.

So May 4th this year should be a busy one for Lego fans. Not only will there be the usual May the 4th Star Wars promo going on but there will also be a special Simpsons Lego episode airing on FOX. Sorry I dont have the specifics as its still 3 months away and im not quite an insider lol

And May will be here before we know it!  We are already one sixth through 2014!  How was it for you so far?

I woke up today to a nice warm temperature of -8! Then I went to school and in one hallway it was cold enough to see you breathe! To cold. It needs to get warmer.

Simpsons/Lego Episode will be on May 4th on FOX At I believe 7pm

I was in the Grocery store on Sunday and this caught my eye.

They still make TV Guide?

 

Actually very good pub for the line of CMF's and the house.

Does it mention the minifig series in the article? 

I didn't actually read the whole article. It was three or four pages long and it seemed to cover a lot of things. I'm sure the mini figures are mentioned, but I'm not hundred percent sure.

If the pictures indicate screen shots of the May 4 TV show, color me surprised that TLG wouldn't match the minifigures shown on the show to the ones produced.  Isn't there a potential for many TV viewers to wind up disappointed that the TV version of the figs would not be available for purchase?  That said, the CMFs looks 10x better and 50x more realistic than the TV show figs.
