Can you believe that Matt Groening’s 1987 creation is coming into its twenty-second season this fall? What’s even more crazy is the awesome list of guest voices The Simpsons team plans to use this season. In the season premiere “Elementary School Musical” Lisa goes to a performance arts camp. There she will be greeted by artsy counselors Jemaine Clement and Bret McKenzie of Flight of the Conchords fame and a bunch of excited campers voiced by Glee‘s Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, and Amber Riley. House‘s Hugh Laurie and Daniel Radcliffe (aka Harry Potter) will lend their voices to October’s “Treehouse of Horror” episode. Later in the season Jon Hamm (Mad Men), Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg, baseball’s Mike Scioscia, and sports writer Bill James will appear in an episode titled “MoneyBart.” This year’s holiday special “The Fight Before Christmas” will get a kick with Martha Stewart. Other guest voices that will pop up throughout the season: Halle Berry, Ricky Gervais, Paul Rudd, Kristen Wiig (Saturday Night Live), Rachel Weisz (The Mummy), Alyson Hannigan (How I Met Your Mother), Cheech & Chong, Danica Patrick, and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar; also Joe Mantegna (Criminal Minds) will reprise his role as Fat Tony. Excited? The Simpsons 22 premieres Sunday, September 26 on FOX.
