Last week’s episode of The Simpsons featured the writing efforts of a daughter/father duo that featured a heart-warming personal history recounted by the daughter who made her debut on the longest running animated series in primetime.

Now looking forward, this Sunday’s episode (written by Michael Price) is called “Do Pizza Bots Dream of Electric Guitars” and it features J.J. Abrams (Star Wars three-quel trilogy) as a guest star. In it,  Homer tries to reunite his favourite band from his youth, but film and TV creator J.J. Abrams gets to them first. The Simpsons season 32 finale has been announced for May 23rd @ 8pm ET. This will most likely be J.J. Abrams’ last work with Disney as the director recently signed an overall deal with rival studio Warner Bros. to produce a slew of feature-length films including the likes of Superman, Justice League: Dark, and more.

Synopsis:

The longest-running primetime scripted show in television history, THE SIMPSONS exploded into popular culture in 1990 and has remained one of the most groundbreaking and innovative entertainment franchises, recognizable throughout the world. HOMER (Dan Castellaneta), MARGE (Julie Kavner), BART (Nancy Cartwright), LISA (Yeardley Smith) and MAGGIE are instantly identifiable television icons. Rounding out this cast of characters are many beloved Springfield residents, including tavern proprietor MOE SZYSLAK (Hank Azaria) and nuclear power plant owner MR. BURNS (Harry Shearer). The Emmy Award-, Annie Award- and Peabody Award-winning animated comedy will begin its 32nd season this year and will celebrate a landmark 700 episodes this spring. Additional upcoming guest voice stars this season include Olivia Colman, Hannibal Buress, Ben Platt and Michael Palin.
