Primetime Emmy Awards
The Simpsons has won 36 Primetime Emmy Awards in four categories, but has been nominated for 79 awards in nine different categories. Two of these nominations were for "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire", which was nominated in 1990 as a separate cartoon because officially it is considered a TV special and not a part of the series, however it is included in these statistics. The show's best year was 1992, when it won six Emmys, all for Outstanding Voice-Over Performance. Until 2009, the Outstanding Voice-Over Performance Emmy was awarded by a committee, so there were no nominations.[35]
Prior to 1993, the series had only been allowed to compete in the animation category, but in early 1993 the rules were changed so that animated television shows would be able to submit nominations in the Outstanding Comedy Series category.[36] The producers submitted "A Streetcar Named Marge" and "Mr. Plow" but the Emmy voters were hesitant to pit cartoons against live action programs, and The Simpsons did not receive a nomination.[37] Several critics saw the show's failure to gain a nomination as one of the biggest snubs for that year.[38][39][40] The Simpsons' crew again submitted episodes for "Outstanding Comedy Series" the next season, but these again were not nominated.[37][41] Since then, the show has submitted episodes in the animation category.
Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Animated Program (For Programming less than One Hour)
The Simpsons won twelve out of thirty-three nominations, held the distinction as the highest wins and nominations of any animated series in the same category. It has been nominated for every year except 1993, 1994 and 2014; 1993 marked the first year that the producers of The Simpsons did not submit episodes for that category.[37]

Other awards
In 1997, The Simpsons became the first animated series to win a Peabody Award, and won it "for providing exceptional animation and stinging social satire, both commodities which are in extremely short supply in television today."[99] In 2020 The Simpsons won a Peabody Institutional Award. In 2000, The Simpsons were given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. This applies to The Simpsons in person, not the series. The star is located at 7021 Hollywood Blvd.[100]
The Simpsons has never won a Golden Globe Award, but was nominated in 2002 in the Best Television Series – Musical or Comedy category, which it would lose to Curb Your Enthusiasm.[101] In 1998, the series was nominated for a British Academy Television Awards in the Best International Programme Or Series category, but would lose to The Larry Sanders Show.[102] In 1996, the "Homer³" segment of "Treehouse of Horror VI" was awarded the Ottawa International Animation Festival grand prize.[103]
