The color palette they tend to stick to always reminds me of EGA graphics (1987) - although the color choices in The Simpsons (1989) are a bit more refined than what's available in the default EGA palette.
EGA allows for redefining the default 16 color palette from a choice of 64 colors. They look quite Simpson-ish to me:
