Everything’s not coming up Milhouse, it seems. Pamela Hayden, who has voiced iconic Simpsons characters including Milhouse and Jimbo Jones, is retiring from the show after 35 years.
I actually wonder if this will be the beginning of the end.
We lost Edna a few years back and they retired her character. The voice change for Carl/Hibbert is noticable (Carl has gotten better, but Hibbert is still wrong). It’s obvious Marge is getting older. Apu has been largely absent the past few seasons. Now Milhouse/Jimbo will need to be replaced.
The current season has been one of the strangest seasons by far, not necessarily in a bad way, but it’s been a shift.
Yeah I’ve watched the documentary and I understand where some folks are coming from, but I’ve also read the opposite. At this point the decision has been made and Hank Azaria isn’t going to voice him anymore, so it’s not a debate worth having. At this point Apu is gone and I doubt he’ll be brought back.

Last I heard, Apu was being removed because he’s become a stereotype that’s reaching into the racism spectrum.
