Website Information

TheSimpsons.com is the official website for The Simpsons. The website contains various information for the series, including episode recaps, character biographies, and episode clips. In September 2011, the website revamped its content and now has an interactive "Springfield Career Day", where readers can switch between booths to find out different information. In 2015, the website was revamped again and was called Simpsons World. Currently, the website redirects to the page of The Simpsons on FOX.com.

Character biographies[edit]
