The Final Season of "The Simpsons"????

Geek Tyrant reports:

"it's being reported that the network wants the show for one more season at most, and only if it can pay 25 to 30 percent less for it. Producers have agreed to salary cuts to keep the show going, and the show's six voice actors have until Friday to make their decision.

The actors current sallaries are at $440,000, and would be cut to $250,000 if the show continues past its current season. Last week they offered to take cuts to $300,000 per episode, in exchange for back-end payments, but that offer was rejected by the studio. A study commisioned by the actors estimates that the show has made $1 billion in profits over its 23-season run. The study also projects that it will end up making $2.9 billion from the show.

The current twenty-third season will be the show's last if no deal can be reached. The network is only interested in one additional season even if the actors and studio can come to terms. An inside source claims that the show is no longer profitable for the network, and that Fox wants to pay 25 to 30 percent less for new episodes."

A FOX exec says:

"The cuts proposed to actors are in line with cuts proposed to others involved in the show. The object here is not for the actors to pay personally for the reduction. The cost is that the cast is a component of the show, all of which is being downsized to do a final season."

Super Tough!: Duff Beer is Now Available for Purchase!!

Description:

‘Homer no function well beer without.’ And neither do we. Especially when we’re indulging in one of our all-day Simpsons-watching marathons. So thank goodness we’ve got our mitts on the Duff Beer 24 Can Pack. Woo-hoo!

Based on Homer’s beloved brew, this 24 can slab is ideal for superfans, slobs and careless nuclear safety inspectors. Okay, so it’s not brewed in Springfield (believe it or not it’s German) but that’s just as well because we all know German lager trumps American beer every time.

Pre-order your Duff Beer 24-can pack from Firebox for £24.99 ($39.)

Duff Beer Actually Exists!

Bootleg Duff Beer is sold in Mexico, Argentina, Colombia and Chile.

Here's an excerpt from the article:

If you want to buy a “genuine” bottle of Duff beer, you’ll have to travel to Mexico, Argentina, Colombia or Chile where the bootleg Simpsons beer is a hot seller.

The Duff dearth north of the border has only made fans more desperate. Online message boards buzz about where to find Duff. On eBay, an empty bottle of Duff beer from Argentina sells for $14.99; a decal off the Colombian product is being offered for $8.99.

At Rock Garden, a bar in Bogotá, Duff commands import prices — about $5.50 a bottle — even though it’s brewed in the nearby city of Medellin.

Duff Sudamerica, the Chilean producer hopes to sell $750,000 worth of the brew this year alone—but it seems likely that their efforts will eventually be thwarted by Fox and Groening, who has gone after Duff imitators in the past.

Groening fears that selling Duff beer, especially in the states, would be “tantamount to pushing alcohol on minors.”
