This area provides a full scope of broadcast scheduling for The Simpsons in the United States. Show times are provided for network airings (minus one hour for central and mountain zones). For a comprehensive list of American & Canadian stations showing episodes in syndication, consult the Syndication Stations & Times list. Because national syndication scheduling is no longer offered, viewers should consult local listings via Zap2it, Yahoo or TV Guide for broadcast info. |

| May 12 • The Fabulous Faker Boy (RABF12) |

| The new episode of The Cleveland Show that was pre-empted last week because of long-running NASCAR coverage will air at 7:00 Eastern, replacing the previously announced airing of "Gorgeous Grampa" |
| May 19 • SEASON FINALE • DOUBLE FEATURE OF NEW EPISODES |
| 8:00 • The Saga of Carl Carlson (RABF14) |

Marge attracts the interest of a married man when she converses him on a site for married
people seeking affairs (under the impression that this "Ashley Madison" site is a "Dolly Madison"
site for people interested in pre-packaged baked goods)
"The Man Who Came to Be Dinner" has been removed from the schedule for an unannounced reason (for all I know, it's because Fox didn't want an episode about aliens wanting to eat Homer to air so close to the recent findings of cannibalism at the Jamestown colony); presumably, it will air as the 25th season premiere in September |
| May 26 • PRE-EMPTED |
| Fox is airing the Coca-Cola 600 NASCAR race (local programming airs after the race in the Mountain and Pacific time zones) |

Fox NFL Doubleheaders - 2013
|
|
Wait...Season 24 hasn't finished yet, and already we're talking about Season 25 episode delays?
|
|
The following dates are Fox's NFL national doubleheader days, and, as the second games of the doubleheader begin at 4:25 Eastern and Fox switches from a completed game to one still in progress until all of them are finished, there is a possibility that The Simpsons would be delayed by a few minutes on these days:
9/8 (2)
The numbers in parentheses indicate how many 4:25 games are on Fox that day; the asterisks indicate
that these are "flex schedule" days, and it is possible that games can be moved from 1:00 to 4:25,
and/or that one 4:25 game can be moved to the NBC night game (but there has to be at least one, and
will almost certainly be at least two, 4:25 games on Fox on those days).
9/29 (3) 10/13 (2) 10/27 (2, but The Simpsons should be pre-empted by a World Series game that day anyway) 11/17 (2*) 11/24 (1*) 12/8 (3*) 12/15 (1*) 12/29 (1*) |

Twentieth Television, the United States syndication distributor of
The Simpsons, terminated its "barter" scheduling of the series in
1999. Accordingly, stations showing the series in syndication now
possess full control over local scheduling, making national
listings a thing of the past.
Regrettably, we cannot provide listings for the hundreds of stations
now independently programming the syndicated airings in their local
markets. Fans should instead refer to online television listings
services such as
Zap2it,
Yahoo or
TV Guide for local information.

Canada, also see Ben Tegarden's
Syndication Stations and Times
reference guide. |

Scheduling information for international broadcasters is available
from the following web sites. If you know of any international
scheduling data on the internet that has been overlooked here,
send e-mail.
Please send e-mail only if you know of a web page that has the actual scheduling information for episodes. Do not simply include the address of the network's home page. This is not intended to be a list of every network in the world that shows The Simpsons - just a list of the sites that list their upcoming episodes. | |||
