Episode Details

Harry Shearer, the legendary voice behind Mr. Burns and Ned Flanders, just dropped a jaw-dropping truth bomb: he’s never watched a single episode of The Simpsons — despite starring in over 800 of them since 1989. He admits he’s been critical of the show’s quality over the years, but still loves the chance to play wildly different characters. He misses the old-school days when voice actors recorded live together — calling it “real acting” — versus today’s isolated, solo sessions. The show’s still firing on all cylinders, with Season 37 airing and a new movie hitting theaters in 2027. It’s wild to think about how deeply involved someone can be in a project without ever experiencing it as a viewer — and it makes you wonder what other hidden connections we’re all part of.
