The twenty-eighth season of the animated television series The Simpsons began airing on Fox in the United States on September 25, 2016.[1] On May 4, 2015, Fox announced that The Simpsons had been renewed for season 28.[2]

This season includes the 600th episode of the show, "Treehouse of Horror XXVII".[3] On August 31, 2016, it was announced that an episode titled "The Caper Chase", inspired by Trump University, will air in 2017.[4]

This season will also include the show's first hour-long episode, "The Great Phatsby", a parody of The Great Gatsby which is slated to air in January.[5] Other note-worthy events and gags include a Pokémon Go-themed episode, couch gags spoofing Robot Chicken and Adventure Time, an episode that shows how Homer learned to feel better with food, Mr. Burns hiring all of the Simpsons (except Homer) to become his "pretend" family ("Friends and Family"), and Glenn Close returning as Mona.[6]
