FXX is preparing to air the longest marathon in TV history. After acquiring every last episode of The Simpsons last fall for a cool $750 million, the young network is preparing to air all 25 seasons (and the movie) of one of the greatest television shows of all time from August 21st to September 1st.
This means that all 552 episodes of the series will air 24 hours a day, seven days a week for a full week and a half. In addition, Variety reports that FXX will launch the "Simpsons World" digital hub in October, which will allow cable subscribers to watch every episode on demand on their desktops at SimpsonsWorld.com, mobile devices via the FXNow app, and on compatible smart TVs and set-top boxes. All the more reason for cable cutters to consider subscribing to cable sometime.
I will have to attached a NAS device to my DVR.. :)
Looking forward to the streaming app. Lots of episodes to catch up on!
I have to check to see if I have FXX.
Comcast offers it with "expanded" basic. I've never watched it, I believe.
I think I have it via FIOS. We'll see..
D'oh! It doesn't look like FIOS has FXX. I see FX of course..
