But as punishment, Harry's voice acting booth will have a large gold plank with that classic Mr Burns line; "Don't Forget, You're Here Forever."

"I was going to do other projects, but I suddenly remembered, I like money!"

[ThatOneShyguyVideos]

"They can't treat me like this I quit!"
"Heres a dump truck of money"
"The show must GO ON!"

*Harry Shearer has left the game.*
*Harry Shearer has entered the game.*

Come fricken on, What reason to returned back.

[BoringMan]

he probably looked at his bank account after he quit

[JMNTN]

300k per episode? I'm gonna be a voice actor

[DexBolts]

Well, he did it. Harry Shearer trolled every Simpsons fan in existence.

Harry Shearer is actually very handsome and looks like a nice grandpa who would buy you ice-cream.

[MLennholm]

Wow, as much as the lack of his voices would create a huge void on The Simpsons I kinda respected him for putting his money where his mouth is and quitting, seeing as he had been openly criticizing the show's quality and relevance for years.
Now he returns? Well, I guess he just values an increased bulging on his already large heap of $'s more than he values principles and integrity.

He was playing hard-to-get thinking he would get a better contract, but it didn't work. Good thing he signed up again, otherwise they would audition for voice talents that could do Mr. Burns, Ned, Smithers and etc and get paid much lower than Mr. Shearer.

I do really like the Simpson and am happy it's carrying on but I do know that it's gonna kinda downhill. It's not as good as it was in the first 15 seasons. I hope they write better episodes. Some are really good though.

[shadowdramon]

Wait, he's 71? He doesn't look it.

[RossLife]

The Simpsons is and will be my favorite show of all time and yes, it's nothing like what it once was when it had the best writers and producers ever on a TV show (Conan, Brad Bird, John Swcharzwelder, Susie Dieter, to name a few), I will still support it for life.

[pissedoff]

It's been a year how did I not know?

[DarkTitan]

I think he remembered how much money he makes

[mr.dystopian]

Damn you Flanders!

*Fist shaking intensifies*

[MrSparra]

good to hear this yes The Simpsons not as good as they used to be but i still enjoy the new eps

[Axibaxi_]

I dont see why everyone hates this show i have watched it for atleast 12 years and i dont think that it is bad
Maybe some people have watched it so much theyve got tired of it.

But its your opinion if you like it or not.

[StellaSteve]

Just cancel the terrible show already. I just can't see how something that has been terrible for the last fifteen years is still on the air. It's hard to remember far back enough, that it actually used to be funny
