“The Simpsons” has been renewed for two more seasons, Fox said Wednesday, revealing that the animated series has been picked up for both a 33rd and 34th installment. This means that “The Simpsons,” which is currently airing Season 32, will be with fans through at least 2023 and 757 episodes. Originating as a sketch on “The Tracey Ullman Show,” “The Simpsons” is the longest-running primetime scripted show in TV history. As probably all of you are aware, the cartoon focuses on the title Simpson family — Homer (Dan Castellaneta), Marge (Julie Kavner), Bart (Nancy Cartwright), Lisa (Yeardley Smith) and Maggie — as well as the oddball residents of their hometown Springfield, like barkeep Moe Szyslak (Hank Azaria) and nuclear power plant owner Mr. Burns (Harry Shearer).

With any luck the show will soon be older than I am,” Homer Simpson *said* in a statement about the show’s two-season renewal. Series creator Matt Groening added: “Everyone at ‘The Simpsons’ is thrilled to be renewed once more, and we are planning lots of big surprises. Homer will lose a hair, Milhouse will get contact lenses, and Bart will celebrate his tenth birthday for the thirty-third time.” “The Simpsons” is executive produced by James L. Brooks, Groening, Al Jean and Matt Selman. The series is a Gracie Films Production in association with 20th Television.

Aston Martin say they can give Sebastian Vettel what he wants this season and get the best out of the four times Formula One world champion as he starts afresh after recent struggles at Ferrari. Vettel also made some glaring errors over the last two years, however, and lost out to much younger Monegasque team mate Charles Leclerc on wins, poles, podiums and points. Some critics have suggested he is on the slide, his best years behind him, but it was all smiles at Wednesday's launch of the new Aston Martin F1 car and team bosses were confident Vettel could deliver.
The social media persona "Roaring Kitty," whose online posts helped spark January's trading frenzy in GameStop Corp shares, appeared before Massachusetts securities regulators on Wednesday to testify as part of an examination into his activities.

Britain on Wednesday extended a grace period for some checks on agricultural and food products heading to Northern Ireland until Oct. 1 in a bid to to ease post-Brexit trade frictions.
