Selman expressed a mindset driven by denial concerning the potential loss of a primary cast member, stating, 'I don't think about it, so I'm just going to not think about that.' This reflects the emotional complexity surrounding long-running shows, particularly those reliant on specific voice actors.
He hopes that the eventual series finale of 'The Simpsons' will be a simple, classic family story, commenting, 'I just hope it's just a regular episode with no Winky Winky stuff at all.' This underscores his commitment to maintaining the show's core values right until the end.
Referencing how other shows have handled the loss of main cast members, Selman mentioned, 'Certainly, it's just if the show ever does a last episode,' indicating that while he acknowledges the risks, he's focused on continuing the show's legacy.
The recent buzz surrounding the Season 36 premiere, which was billed as the 'series finale,' led to confusion among viewers as it was revealed that the storyline was generated by AI, highlighting the show's innovative approach to storytelling even amidst speculation of its end.
