'The Simpsons' LEGO sets were only the first step in an ambitious cross-promotional campaign for new merchandising around the long-running FOX family, as May 4 will see Homer and the gang trading up to yellow block in the LEGO-animated episode "Brick Like Me."

'24' fans have been excited from the moment 'Live Another Day' was announced, let alone that Mary Lynn Rajskub's Chloe would put in a return appearance, but it seems there may be a world of work ahead before she and Jack can become besties again.

We've seen 'The Simpsons' pay tribute to late voice actress Marcia Wallace on multiple occasions, but its latest is the most heartfelt and lovingly crafted yet.
