Hit comedy cartoon show The Simpsons may be turned into a full-length movie - as long as it isn't yet another "dismal" TV to big screen feature.
Creator Matt Groening is in talks with movie bosses about bringing Bart, Homer and the rest of the dysfunctional family to movie screens - but he is approaching the prospect with caution.
He says, "We want to make sure it doesn't follow in the dismal footsteps of other TV shows turned into movies.
"I can only think of one that worked and that was South Park."

Hey fans, a recent poll done by the Mirror Newspaper in the UK found out who people think are the best "fictional" mums (moms for all of us here in the US). Coming in at second place, behind Eastender Kat Slater, is our favorite family's mother... Marge Simpson. "After Kat came Marge Simpson, The Simpsons (21 per cent). Mrs Weasley, Harry Potter (19 per cent). The Illustrated Mum, Jacqueline Wilson (13 per cent). Marianne, The Wild Thornberrys (nine per cent). Sophie, My Parents Are Aliens (eight per cent)."

Hey fans, it shouldn't be a big surprise that our favorite show has won so many awards and now adding to the list is the 6th spot on the Top 10 Shows of the Century. The show comes in right after 60 minutes.. not bad. In first place was M.A.S.H., which we can see a lot of people disagreeing with. Shows like Seinfield didn't even make the list while all time favorites like I Love Lucy and the Honeymooners did. You can check out the full list and details by Clicking Here.
