Homer Simpson and his family will be back for more antics for at least two more seasons.
Fox said it has renewed the animated series for its 27th and 28th seasons, which will carry it to a total of 625 episodes.
The tale of Springfield and the Simpson family, starring Dan Castellaneta as dad Homer and Julie Kavner as mum Marge – is TV’s longest-running scripted night-time series.
Showrunner Al Jean shared a photo of the latest script, following the news.
The network’s announcement included a boast from Homer that his doughnut addiction helped him outlast David Letterman, Jon Stewart and Dr McDreamy from Grey’s Anatomy.
The award-winning comedy, created by Matt Groening in 1989, has spawned merchandise, a big-screen movie, video games and a Universal Studios Ride.
