Date of FXX's Simpsonthon finalized

[Bob Jersey]

Deadline's Lisa D. (link): From 10pm east/west August 21st, to 12mid east/west Sept. 1st. Regularly-scheduled episodes begin on the channel the following day... The Simpsons Movie, given it was released following the 400th episode's airing, will appear at the same point in the 'thon...

A companion online site, Simpsons World, will give authenticated FX viewers access to every episode starting in October... Al Jean told the TCA crowd there still isn't a deal for the Tracey Ullman Show segments, but they and Groening are talking...

A question I don't recall seeing answered: will they be showing the syndicated or network versions?

FXX is showing the original network versions -- this time only -- but the bigger problem is stretching the old episodes to match the 16:9 HD aspect. (The uncut episodes will retain the 4:3 ratio once the Simpsons World app is released.)
