That's what you said about Homestarrunner.com.

In any case, did we ever get an explicit denial on The Simpsons? I recall there seemed to be a couple of references tossed about at one point, to the point of some people throwing Hans Moleman pics around (where did they get those, anyway?). And a while back Jake got peeved when someone suggested Telltale couldn't do the kind of look a Simpsons game would need. That usually means something's up, though it could have merely been because of ongoing talks on sbcg4ap.

Although this article is from 2005, it still stands (sadly).

So what are you saying? It's The Simpsons and EA bought Telltale?!

This could go one of two ways:

They could spend 23 minutes screwing up Telltale, dropping one-liners, realising Homer (or Bart) wasn't cut out to run a software company and restoring Telltale to its state before EA and The Simpsons moved in
Or, they could spend 6 months screwing up Telltale and we could see the birth of Sam and Max '09: All-Play

I bet this is it. (Just don't click the link before the announcement or you will ruin the surprise.

Ok, maybe not The Simpsons, but what about futurama? I think that would be perfect for a telltale-esque adventure game.

Yeah, the way they completely caught us off-guard with this one shows how much they're expanding their reach even now. Promising, indeed.
