The beloved comedy cartoon series The Simpsons will be pulled from Sky One after the final episode airs tonight on Saturday October 31.

Viewers across Britain have watched the dysfunctional animated family for decades.

Television listings show that the animated show is absent from the Sky One schedule for the next two weeks.

A spokesperson for Sky confirmed that previous series of The Simpsons will no longer appear on the Sky One schedule starting from the end of October.

Television blogger Wesley Mead initially noticed the removal, stating that the first two weeks of November indicate zero broadcasts of the program, marking a break not seen on Sky schedules since the early 1990s.

Mead explained that November 1 typically marks the point when UK broadcast contracts for the program are revised, with airing rights for specific seasons shifting between Sky and free-to-air broadcasters like the BBC and Channel 4 on November 1 for nearly thirty years.

He noted that this Halloween represents the end of a 36-year history involving more than 40,000 broadcasts of over 750 episodes, concluding one of the longest international broadcasting relationships in UK and Irish television history.

The final broadcast will feature a repeated Treehouse of Horror episode at 6pm on Halloween.

The animated family, featuring father Homer, wife Marge, son Bart, and daughters Lisa and baby Maggie, has entertained viewers for decades.

Sky customers can still watch The Simpsons through Disney+ as part of the Sky Ultimate TV package.
