Production
This season and the next season were ordered in May 2015.[1] Seven episodes were holdovers from the previous season.[25] Executive producer Al Jean continued his role as primary showrunner, a role he had since the thirteenth season.[26] Executive producer Matt Selman was also the showrunner for several episodes, a role he performed since the twenty-third season.[27] Despite co-developer Sam Simon's death in March 2015, he retained executive producer credit in all episodes due to his agreement when he departed the series in 1993.[28][29]
The same month, series regular Harry Shearer announced that he was departing the series. He cited scheduling flexibility as the reason. Jean stated that the characters he portrayed would not be retired and new actors would voice those roles. However, in July 2015, it was reported that Shearer was returning, signing the same contract as the other series regulars to remain through a potential thirtieth season.[2]
The season featured the first episode written by Jeff Martin since the fifth season.[30] It also featured the first episode written by Eric Horsted, who had previously written for creator Matt Groening's television series Futurama.[31]
The penultimate episode of the season featured a live segment of Homer answering viewer questions. The real-time animation was handled with Adobe Character Animator, and lines of Homer talking about current events were used to prove the segment was live.[32][33]
To promote the season, Jean stated that Homer and Marge would be separating.[34] The news prompted posts on the internet regarding the couple's divorce, leading to Fox publishing a video of Homer and Marge reassuring viewers on the state of their marriage.[35] Another promotional video featured Homer becoming a paid actor at the announcement of Donald Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.[36]
Reception
Ratings
For the 2015-2016 television season, the season earned a 2.1 rating in the 18-49 demographic, which was the 42nd best performing show. It averaged 4.75 million viewers, which was the 102nd best performing show.[37]
Critical response
Jesse Schedeen of IGN gave the season a 7.2 of out 10. He thought that the season contained reused plots like most of the later seasons. However, he found that when the show featured episodes outside the normal structure, such as "Halloween of Horror" and "Barthood," it showed that it was still capable of humor and examination of family.[38]
John Schwarz of Bubbleblabber gave the season a 6.5 out of 10. He felt that the series was still relevant and that the producers can still take bold chances, such as the live segment. However, he also thought the season contains reused plots.[39]
