Episodes
Production
This season and the following season were ordered in January 2023. Seven episodes were holdovers from the previous season. Executive producer Matt Selman continued his role as primary showrunner, a role he had since the thirty-third season. Executive producer Al Jean was also showrunner for several episodes this season. Commenting on how the series stays relevant in its thirty-fifth season, Selman stated that the writers approach the show as if the series was new and not think about the show's past. Writer Cesar Mazariegos stated that the writers want to take the show in "zanier directions" that were previously reserved for Treehouse of Horror episodes.
Production of the season was halted in May 2023 by the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike. In June 2023, Selman and Jean organized a Simpsons themed picket outside the Fox Studios lot. Picketers joining them included creator Matt Groening and former writers David X. Cohen, Conan O'Brien, and Greg Daniels. Once a contract agreement was reached, production resumed in October 2023. As a result of the strike, eighteen episodes aired this season instead of the normal twenty-two episodes.
= Promotion
=To promote the thirty-fifth season, Fox released an extended trailer on September 11, 2023.
Release
Due to the longer production lead time of animated shows, episodes produced before the strike were available to air as scheduled in October 2023 in the Sunday 8 PM timeslot. Leading out of NFL on Fox coverage, the season premiered on October 1, 2023 with an episode airing simultaneously in all time zones at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT. Several episodes this season also premiered simultaneously in the 8:30 PM ET/5:30 PM PT timeslot on Sundays leading out of NFL on Fox coverage and special episodes of the television series Krapopolis.
Reception
= Viewing figures
=For the 2023-2024 television season, the season earned a 0.58 rating in the 18-49 demographic, which was the 35th best performing show. It averaged 1.99 million viewers, which was the 106th best performing show.
= Critical response
=John Schwarz of Bubbleblabber gave the season an 8 out of 10. He thought the earlier episodes of the season were of poor quality but thought the later episodes were better. He highlighted the Mario Kart parody in "Lisa Gets an F1" and the mention of strikes in "Night of the Living Wage".
= Awards and nominations
=At the 76th Primetime Creative Arts Emmy Awards, the episode "Night of the Living Wage" was nominated for Outstanding Animated Program. Hank Azaria was nominated for Outstanding Character Voice-Over Performance for his performance as Moe Szyslak in "Cremains of the Day".
At the 76th Writers Guild of America Awards, writers Carolyn Omine and Rob LaZebnik were nominated for the Writers Guild of America Award for Television: Animation for episodes written this season.
