‘The Simpsons' Upcoming Guests Include Kieran Culkin, Viola Davis, Idris Elba; Matt Groening on How to Liberate Parents from MAGA: ‘Delete Fox News'
Kieran Culkin ('Succession'), Glenn Howerton ('It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia'), Albert Brooks and Cole Escola ('Oh Mary') are among the guest stars stopping by Springfield during the upcoming Season 37 of 'The Simpsons,' the show's producers announced Saturday at San Diego Comic-Con. Also Danny Pudi ('Community'), Adam Pally, Brendan and Domhall Gleeson, together at last! More from Variety 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Teases Puppet Episode for Season 4 'Futurama' Cast, Producers Joke About Their Frequent Cancellations, Tease Upcoming Guests and Storylines 'Bob's Burgers' Reveals Landmark 300th Episode Details, Plus New Halloween and Christmas Installments Also during the panel, 'Simpsons' producers shared a sneak preview of one of this year's 'Treehouse of Horror' Halloween segments. Idris Elba, Michael Keaton and Viola Davis will be guest starring on that episode, which will feature an opening from guest animator Stan Kelly (from The Onion). Among those on stage: creator Matt Groening, executive producers Matt Selman and Mike Price, director Matt Faughnan and consulting producer/director David Silverman. 'I honestly thought 36 was where we were going to end it,' Groening joked. 'No, there's no end in sight. We're going to keep going. We're going to go until somebody dies. When you know who dies, the Simpsons predicts the there will be dancing in the streets. Except President Vance will ban dancing.' What's coming up next is the show's landmark 800th episode, which will air on Fox in February 2026. 'It's a big deal to do 800 shows, and so we're going to be doing two brand new original episodes that night,' Selman said. 'They're top secret for now, but I promise you, they'll be the best 800th episode of anything you've ever seen.' After the recent 'Coldplay' incident, in which the Astronomer CEO and its HR head were caught in a tryst, a deep fake claimed that 'The Simpsons' predicted it. Selman warned fans not to fall for these 'Simpsons predicts the future' memes. 'Who could be so dumb?' he said. 'Of all our 800 episodes we did, that those two dumb white folks — I don't what to call, the takes are done — like, who could think, who has such little reactive intelligence that this is in 'The Simpsons'? And of course, the answer is hundreds and hundreds of millions of people! But when you see something that claims to be a 'Simpsons' prediction, just think for one second. Could that have possibly been on the show? That's all, just think one second and then comment on the thing 'they are magic, they're wizards, they did it again.' Groening joking said he had the counterpoint: 'We are time travelers.' Here were some of his upcoming predictions: ''The Simpsons' predicts Elon Musk will be the first man to land on Mars. Amazingly, he will crash land on Mars. But he will radio back that he is marooned there forever. And most emotionally of all, he will be able to hear the cheering all the way.' Also: 'America will return the Statue of Liberty to France and North America remembers what the word Liberty means.' And most importantly: ''The Simpsons' predicts kids across America will liberate their Republican parents from the cult of MAGA. And here's how you do it. Grab the TV remote, go to menu, go to controls, vertical controls, look for channel list and delete Fox News.' As part of the event, the 'Simpsons' team attempted to play a game that Selman dubbed 'Simpsons Comic-Con Pictionary,' but the technology was not cooperating. Nonetheless, during that segment, guest animators/writers Michael Cusack ('Smiling Friends') and Mike McMahan ('Solar Opposites') came on stage to also talk and ask about 'The Simpsons.' And of course, addressed was the recent surprising uptick in online hot takes about Marge Simpson dying in the show's Season 36 finale. As Selman recently told Variety, she had done no such thing and that what happened in the recent season finale of the series was not canon, since 'there is no canon,' he said at the time. ''The Simpsons' doesn't even have canon!' 'She's like in every episode,' Selman said at the panel. 'There's a new economy of headlines that try to trick you. I call it 'trick bait.' The million headlines saying 'Simpsons' kills Marge, and then even those articles admit it, of course, 'they didn't do we just wanted you to read our headline.' So again, just a little ounce of thinking after you read something make your lives a little better.'

CC Sabathia and his family have a bumpy ride to Cooperstown
COOPERSTOWN, NY (AP) — For CC Sabathia, getting elected into the Baseball Hall of Fame was much easier than actually getting to the Hall of Fame. Sabathia, whose career spanned 19 seasons with the Cleveland Indians, Milwaukee Brewers and New York Yankees, was voted in on his first year of eligibility. Getting to Cooperstown for Hall of Fame weekend activities to be capped by his induction Sunday proved a tad more difficult. 'It was an adventure,' Sabathia said Saturday. Sabathia, wife Amber and their four children left their Alpine, New Jersey, home at about 4 p.m. Thursday. They traveled in two vehicles as is their family custom and were about 75 miles (120 kilometers) into their 177-mile trip when things got interesting. 'We stopped to get food. Everything's going great,' Sabathia said. 'We tried to get on the on-ramp on (Route) 17 and the car just stopped. I was behind her (Amber). Most of the time when we're driving, I'm gone. I'm never driving behind her, but for some reason I was taking my time riding behind her.' Sabathia had a clear view of what was happening. They called for assistance. The family piled into Sabathia's car and returned home to grab another vehicle as a tow truck towed their broken-down Escalade back to Alpine. The Sabathias arrived in Cooperstown at about midnight. What should have been a drive of about three hours became an eight-hour journey. 'It was pretty funny. I was taking pictures. My kids were doing TikToks and Amber was in the back like the super serious person she is getting everything done,' Sabathia said. 'People were honking at us and recognizing us on the side of the road. It was fun for us. 'For her it was a nightmare.' The Sabathias, including Amber, will certainly be all smiles Sunday. ___ AP MLB:

A 7-Year-Old Boy Died in a 'Dog Attack' Despite Grandma's Attempt to Save Him. 9 Dogs Were 'Humanely Euthanized' as a Result
Noah Burnett died from injuries sustained during the July 22 dog attack, which occurred in Alabama A young boy in Alabama was killed in a dog attack, despite his grandmother's attempt to save him. The 7-year-old boy was attacked by dogs 'in the area of County Road 147' near the city of Calera, Ala., on the evening of Tuesday, July 22, according to the Chilton County Sheriff's Office (CCSO). Local Fox affiliate WBRC identified the child as Noah Burnett. Shortly after 6:10 p.m. local time, deputies arrived at the scene to find that Burnett had 'suffered serious injuries as a result of an attack by one or more aggressive dogs,' police said in a press release. According to Chilton County Sheriff John Shearon, Burnett's grandmother was also bitten multiple times in an attempt to save the 7-year-old, WBRC reported. The child was transported for emergency medical treatment, but died following the attack. 'It is with great sadness that we report the child has succumbed to their injuries," the sheriff's office said. 'Our hearts are broken for the child and the family affected by this unimaginable loss,' Shearon added in a press release. 'We are fully committed to a thorough investigation to determine how this tragedy occurred and to help prevent anything like this from happening again.' Burnett's grandmother was also taken to the hospital for treatment, but is expected to recover, according to WBRC. In its initial announcement of the attack, the CCSO said that 'the dog or dogs involved' had 'not yet been located or secured.' The sheriff's office also said that an investigation was underway 'to determine the full circumstances of the attack, including whether the animals involved were stray or domesticated and under someone's ownership.' Shortly after, the sheriff's office confirmed there were nine dogs connected to the incident, and they belonged to an owner, who surrendered them to Chilton County Animal Control. "These animals were not stray dogs,' the sheriff's office said. 'They belonged to a local resident and were kept on private property prior to the incident.' All nine dogs 'were humanely euthanized in accordance with standard safety protocols and were sent for testing as part of the investigation,' according to police. The surrendered dogs consisted of several different breeds, including shepherd mixes, pit bull-terrier mixes, lab mixes, a hound mix and a pit bull-terrier-akita mix, according to police. They ranged in age from 6 months to 3 years old. Want to keep up with the latest crime coverage? Sign up for for breaking crime news, ongoing trial coverage and details of intriguing unsolved cases. Following Burnett's death, his family declined to speak with WBRC, but they did describe him as having 'a big heart and an even bigger personality,' the outlet said. 'To know' Burnett 'was to love him,' says a GoFundMe raising money for funeral expenses for the 7-year-old. 'He had the biggest heart and the most outgoing personality! He was the life of the party, and he was always dirty; he loved being outside and playing in the dirt.' Read the original article on People
