The Top 10 Sad Truths Behind The Simpsons

**Drakul** · 09-05-2012, 12:35 PM

I had read that The Simpsons was why Futurama was cancelled originally. Matt Groening wanted to end The Simpsons and focus on Futurama but the show brought in too much money so FOX cancelled Futurama and forced Matt to focus on The Simpsons.
No idea how much of that, if any, is true.

Also read rumours of a second Simpsons film. That would be a good place to end it.
