Actually I saw a few days ago that there's a new site where you can stream all Simpsons episodes. It requires login from a TV provider account to access it.
http://www.simpsonsworld.com/
In order to use the site in XBMC you'd have to either write an add-on or hope that someone else is interested enough to write an add-on for it.

The good ones are..

But all joking aside, there doesn't seem to be an XBMC/Kodi-compatible way to get streaming Simpsons episodes legally. As for the not-so-legal methods, we can't help you out with those per our forum rules (wiki).

Assuming you aren't asking about piracy, "out of the box" Kodi cannot scrape the Simpsons at the moment. There are too many fan-arts for the database table to store them. To fix it, get a mysql client, log in to the local DB (using the user/passwd in your advanced_settings.xml" file) and run the following SQL:
ALTER TABLE MyVideos116.tvshow MODIFY COLUMN c06 mediumtext DEFAULT NULL NULL;That will expand the table column enough to support the extended info from the episode scraper. Exit the mySQL client and go back to Kodi. Select the Simpsons folder in the videos, select "information" and click to the right until you reach "refresh". This time when you refresh the info, it should find it and update the show information so it shows up in your TV shows like all the rest.

Alternatively you can change to the new tv show scraper... https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:TMDb_TV_Shows
This scraper limits the number of artwork links that are scraped, so there should no longer be an issue for MySQL / MariaDB setups.
