| The show has gained Brownie points due to its irreverence,
wit and willingness to take on anything from politics to religion
to family values notwithstanding the strong conservative mood in the
US.
Meanwhile a movie version of the show will hit theatres shortly.
The films performance could very well decide the fate of the show.
A report in The Guardian had earlier indicated that the show could
end in 2009 when it completes 20 years of existence.
The shows creator Matt Groening added " It is a bunch of humans
working really hard. It doesn't get any easier because we're still
faced with the problem of having a history. We are trying not to
repeat ourselves and we are also competing with people's memories
of their favourite episode."
