View Details Show More Episodes The Simpsons: Season 16 Photos View All Photos (39) Tv Season Info Surprisingly, the characters of Patty and Selma Bouvier (Marge's grumpy, chain-smoking sisters) are the focus of two of series 16's most-notable installments. In "There's Something About Marrying," Springfield legalizes same-sex marriage, which prompts Patty to finally come out of the closet (the episode was promoted with the teaser that one of show's characters would be revealed as gay). And in "Goo Goo Gai Pan," the Simpsons travel to China with Selma, who wants to adopt an orphan. The family, of course, also get into wacky antics that don't involve hot-button issues: Bart becomes a T-shirt designer, Homer teaches sports mascots how to dance and Marge enters a cooking contest.

May 10, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review… David Bianculli New York Daily News Top Critic This works because the show also manages to continually tell fun stories each week. Aug 10, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review… Kevin Carr 7M Pictures While it's still tons of fun, some of the pop culture references are dated. Jun 12, 2018 | Full Review… Chris Ball Cleveland Plain Dealer ... it felt like The Simpsons wanted to be the EDGY show it once was. Oct 25, 2017 | Full Review… Josh Kurp Uproxx View All Critic Reviews (4) Audience Reviews for The Simpsons: Season 16 Nov 26, 2016 Season 16 plays to the show's strengths. A good example of this are the religious themed episodes Thank God It's Doomsday, and The Father, the Son, and the Holy Guest Star. These episodes show how clever the writers can be delivering great character-based stories and dealing with religious themes in a fair and satirical manor. John N Jan 30, 2014 Funny at times but sometimes it isn't funny at all, show has been going on too long now i think, overall it is isn't too bad Shane B Jan 05, 2014 An unfortunately weak effort from the crew. Give it up already, guys.
