The animated television series “The Simpsons,” “Family Guy” and “Bob’s Burgers” have been renewed for four more seasons on Fox, Fox Entertainment said Wednesday.
“American Dad,” which debuted on Fox in 2005, is also getting a four-season renewal. It has been airing on TBS since 2014.
The contract extends “The Simpsons”‘s status as the longest-running scripted primetime series in television history from its 37th to its 40th season.
“This new agreement celebrates the enduring popularity of these iconic comics, as well as the enduring, rich connection we continue to enjoy with our friends in 20th century television animation,” said Michael Thorne, president of Fox Television Networks, referring to its production company behind the shows.
Disney and Hulu will remain the exclusive global streaming platforms for all four animated series.
