Wait, Harry Shearer leaves The Simpsons
Look, I don't watch the show anymore. However, I kind of figured he
was on the outs when he didn't reprise his role for the
Simpsons/Family Guy crossover. While I hate Nancy Cartwright, I
always got the feeling that Shearer was the one that was the most
difficult to work with on the show. And, as Matt said, I get the
feeling at 70 he just doesn't give a shit anymore. I'm nearing a
milestone myself and I find myself not caring about anything.
I personally think the show has run its course and needs to end. FOX
loves reliving its past glory by digging up old shows and bringing
back, so keeping this dinosaur on the air seems like a FOX move to
me. Heck, they brought back 24 and are bringing back The X-Files.
The roles he voiced will be recast. I believe there was a sound
alike for one character on the Simpsons/Family Guy episode, so it can
be done.
Hey, he can reprise his role as Handsome Dan in Wayne's World 3.
