"The Greatest Story Ever Told" is the ninth and final episode of the eleventh season (branded under the alternative title, Aqua Teen Hunger Force Forever) of Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and the 139th episode overall. The episode originally served as the series finale when the series was cancelled in 2015. In the episode, Frylock and Carl become immortal after using special "Ceaseless" shampoo, while Master Shake and Meatwad seek immortality through religion.
Series creators were not made aware of the cancellation of the series until halfway through the final season – regardless, they were still able to make a finale that they felt "does justice" to the show. The episode, both written and directed by series creators, Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro, preceding this one, "The Last One Forever and Ever (For Real This Time) (We ****ing Mean It)", was falsely promoted as the series finale and aired on August 23, 2015. "The Greatest Story Ever Told" was then quietly released online on August 26, 2015, as a hidden Easter egg on the Adult Swim website. It later made its television debut in the United States on Cartoon Network's late night programming block Adult Swim on August 30, 2015, with very little promotion and was listed as a rerun of "Rabbot" on most television listings. The episode has received positive reception and its television debut was the second highest-rated episode from the season.
