So this is what it feels like when doves cry. After 35 beautiful years of Milhouse Van Houten, Pamela Hayden is retiring from The Simpsons.

"The time has come for me to hang up my microphone, but how do I say goodbye to The Simpsons?……not easily," Hayden said in a statement. "It’s been an honor and a joy to have worked on such a funny, witty, and groundbreaking show, and to give voice to Milhouse (and Jimbo Jones, Rod Flanders, Janey, Malibu Stacy, and many others)."

The actor is set to make her final appearance in Treehouse of Horror Presents: Something Wicked This Way Comes on Sunday, November 24. For more, check out our list of the best new TV shows to come in 2024 and beyond.
