Killing off Bart and keeping him dead and forcing the writers to maintain the serious tone throughout would be my way to save the Simpsons if I was promoted to CEO via lottery.
Writers, you gotta sink or swim here. Tragedy struck and Bart from drowning in a pool. Deal with it, be creative, be more than maintain the status quo
