Homer Simpson and Conan O'Brien with a background full of pink sprinkle donuts
The Big Picture If there's one thing The Simpsons is known for, other than being one of the longest-running animated series in history, it's the show predicting events before they happen.
Release Date December 17, 1989 Cast Dan Castellaneta , Julie Kavner , Nancy Cartwright , Yeardley Smith , Hank Azaria , Harry Shearer Main Genre Comedy Seasons 36 Studio Fox A ‘Simpsons’ Season 5 Episode Featured Conan O’Brien as a Talk Host O'Brien guest starred in the Season 5 episode of The Simpsons, "Bart Gets Famous." When Bart sneaks onto a TV set, he winds up becoming an assistant for his idol Krusty the Clown .
That confidence paid off, as O'Brien would go on to host the Late Show until 2009. He'd actually recorded lines for "Bart Gets Famous" after the premiere of Late Night With Conan O'Brien, but didn't feel like he would last very long. "The show was on the air when I did the record, and I remember at the time thinking, ‘This is very optimistic of The Simpsons'. It was just after Chevy Chase had been canceled, and people thought I would last about eight weeks.
Conan O’Brien Has a Long History With ‘The Simpsons’ Close Prior to his Late Night gig, Conan O'Brien wrote a handful of episodes for The Simpsons. His first credited episode was Season 4's "New Kid On The Block," which happened to be another Bart-centric episode. Bart grows a massive crush on his new next door neighbor Laura , only to find out she's dating one of his bullies, Jimbo Jones .
