The Simpsons series has seen several mentions of Finland before. One of the reasons for this is that Bonita Pietila, who has a Finnish background, is making the series. Pietila’s grandparents once moved to the United States from Ostrobothnia.
In Finland, the Simpsons series is presented by Disney+, which started showing episodes of the 34th season of the favorite series at the end of 2023.
