FOX Finales Sneak Peek: ‘The Simpsons,’ ‘Bob’s Burgers’ & More
The Simpsons
“How on Earth does Homer support his family as well as he does?” asks co-executive producer Tim Long. That excellent question gets explored tonight as Homer (voiced by Dan Castellaneta) attempts to school Bart (Nancy Cartwright) on the value of money. Also, Music Man Hugh Jackman guest stars as a magical janitor—who sings with ex–Secretary of Labor Robert Reich about economic disparity!

This Father’s Day finale—a Tobin family trip to an RV park—shows pop Beef (Nick Offerman) “in a new light,” cocreators Wendy Molyneux and Lizzie Molyneux-Logelin hint. Enter: bad boy Beef!

Bob’s Burgers

Family Guy
Stewie (Seth MacFarlane) “takes instantly” to directing big bro Chris’ (Seth Green) high school production of Romeo and Juliet. Then, tease exec producers Rich Appel and Alec Sulkin, he “takes even more instantly to the idea of stepping in for one of the leads. Hint: not Romeo.”
