Homer Simpson has, according to the animated character, stopped strangling his son Bart – bringing to an end a long-running (and outdated) gag on the show. It’s one of many set pieces on the beloved animated series. “See, Marge, strangling the boy paid off,” Homer tells his wife, Marge. Took them long enough.”According to the Independent, the last time Homer actually strangled Bart was during season 31, which ran from 2019 to 2020. Since debuting in 1989, “The Simpsons” has become the longest-running animated series on television.
