No, what is really astonishing about The Simpsons is that Marge hasn’t divorced Homer yet. If The Simpsons was rooted in any form of real life, and didn’t reset itself sitcom-style after every episode, it would be a harrowing drama about a woman trapped in an impossibly unhappy marriage. Riding high … Marge and Homer. In 1994’s Secrets of a Successful Marriage, after Homer has deliberately revealed all of his wife’s innermost secrets to the whole town, Marge finally throws him out. Obviously if Marge ever did divorce Homer, The Simpsons would immediately have to end.
