A sad end for Rabbi Hyman Krustofski, better known as the father of Krusty the Klown, who died in last night’s season 26 premiere of The Simpsons:

Good Simpsons tonight. I'll miss Krusty's Father. He was one of my favorite peripheral characters.

But fear not. The good rabbi ended up in “Jewish heaven” with the likes of Rodney Dangerfield, Albert Einstein, Joan Rivers and Golda Meir.
As for reaction from the fans, well, they weren’t impressed:
Oh yes! Death on Simpsons premiere…meh. Death on Bones premiere…NOOOOOOO!

'Worst episode ever!': Simpsons fans are less than impressed with character death in season premiere that was hyped… http://t.co/uk7SFGS6VK

Pretty sure that "big death" at The Simpsons' season premiere was not worth a year of hype. wtf

Very underwhelmed by the character death on the Simpsons

Oh, well. There’s always next year’s season premiere where the writers will get a chance to kill somebody else off for hype!
