美國經典動畫《辛普森家庭》第 36 季節局近日播出,劇中描述未來 35 年後的故事,不過卻發現辛普森家的母親、重要角色「美枝」被暗示已過世,劇情中僅以一場告別式與墓碑低調呈現,引發觀眾熱議。網友紛紛表示無法接受這樣的安排,更有人表示「從第 35 季結束後不再追了!」對此製作團隊則緊急出面否認消息,執行製作人馬特塞爾曼(Matt Selman)更神回「《辛普森家庭》沒有所謂的正史」直呼實在太大驚小怪。
美枝有沒有死?
對於各界熱議,根據美國《綜藝報》報導,《辛普森家庭》執行製作人馬特塞爾曼親自出面澄清,美枝仍然活得好好的,劇中那一幕並非「正史」內容。他強調,《辛普森家庭》本來就沒有固定的時間線,每一集的未來故事都只是幻想與創意延伸,不具連貫性。他更幽默說「美枝甚至可能比我們所有人活得還久。」

Growing up with The Simpsons and seeing Marge Simpson's ending in the last episode of season 36 feels like losing a family member.

塞爾曼坦言,部分媒體為了點擊率下了誤導性標題,導致「美枝之死」成為熱議話題,而且《辛普森家庭》第 36 季大結局早在 5 月中就已經播出,但到現在才發酵。他無奈說,雖然大多數報導最後會輕描淡寫地說明事實,但網友多半只看到標題就信以為真。他也強調美枝未來仍會在劇中出現,希望觀眾理解《辛普森家庭》的劇情是假設性的幻想,每次都會有所不同,「唯一一次死去就是 6 周前播出的那一集」。
