It might the end for the iconic Simpsons character 'Krusty the clown', as the show's officials have hinted that the clown might soon be killed off.
The show's executive producer Al Jean had earlier announced that the first episode in the new season of the show would be called "Clown in the Dumps", Metro.co.uk reported.
During the Television Critics Association press tour, he said that he didn't say he was killing Krusty, but didn't say that he wasn't.
Jean has also hinted that Krusty's death will reflect the importance of his role in the award-winning show and added that it turned out bigger than they thought it was going to be, and that it's not going to be this blood bath where they all get murdered.
