'The Simpsons' soon to be seen on stamps

[w¡n9Nµ7 §£@¥€r 123]

"The Simpsons" has ... [become] the latest TV classic to be honored by the United States Postal Service with a series of stamps. The five main characters of the cartoon series -- dad Homer, mother Marge, bad boy Bart, sassy Lisa, and silent Maggie -- are featured on a set of 44 cent stamps (the new domestic postal rate) that go on sale May 7.

"The Simpsons" stands alone as the only TV show to be the sole subject of a stamp set while still in production.

i want Apu

Yeah, I want lots of random Simpsons characters on my stamps too...not just the main ones (although that is really cool and I want them). But I guess it would be quite difficult to make stamps with all of the random characters. I want Barney burping on my stamp.

when i was 11, i broke my leg and had bart painted on my cast. let's just say- when i moved to a new town, i was ridiculed.

anyway- i loved the simpsons forever, but i'm more of a family guy fan. the simpsons are best when the episodes are based on homer and not bart.

I like The Simpsons way more than Family Guy. I like Family Guy too....but sometimes I can't even watch the episode it gets so annoying. Like literal 5 minute sequences of Stewie and Brian telling each other to shut up back and forth...The Simpsons never stoops that low.

They do a survey and find who people would most like to see on the stamps. I would love to see chief Wiggam, Ralph and Mr Burns get their own stamps.

As before, I want Barney, Mo, the really geeky scientist guy (what's his name anyway?), and of course if you have a Mr. Burns stamp you have to have a Smithers stamp too.

Doesn't the post office have to pay royalties for doing that? If so, it's not right considering that they laid off 5k employees. Using a franchise will decrease the profits, doesn't it?
