THE SIMPSONS Pays Homage to GUNSMOKE

Sunday, April 29, 2018 is a big day for THE SIMPSONS: with the episode—its 636th—it officially becomes the longest-running primetime drama in television history. (GUNSMOKE previously held the record with its 635 installments.)

To celebrate THE SIMPSONS-GUNSMOKE connection, the animated series parodied the western (and the milestone) with its opening. Check out the video and the poster!
