this is the longest-running primetime
sitcom ever mother seems really upset
about something I better go have a talk
with her during the commercial welcome
to watchmojo.com and today we’ll be
taking a look at the history of The
Simpsons cartoons don’t have any deep
meaning they’re just stupid drawings
they give you a cheap laugh the show was
a satirical parody of the American
working class lifestyle and it was
originally pitched by Matt Groening as a
series of animated shorts in 1987 it
debuted as a string of 60-second spots
for the variety series The Tracey Ullman
Show finally the Simpsons were given
their first half-hour episode by 20th
Century Fox on December 17 1989 you will
not be getting a tattoo for Christmas
yeah if you want one you’ll have to pay
for it out of your own allowance
alright the cartoon detailed the average
American lives of The Simpsons and was
instantly acclaimed by critics and loved
by audiences of all ages the family was
based in the fictional community of
Springfield which was influenced by the
creator’s hometown of Portland Oregon
interestingly the show’s main characters
were all directly named after graining
zone family with the exception of the
hellish ten-year-old troublemaker Bart
this character was meant to represent
graining himself and his name was an
anagram for the Ward brat soon you will
be at peace
don’t use a touch of death on your
sister other characters included Homer a
childish father who gave bad advice and
worked at the nuclear power plant you’re
the best father a boy could ever have
hey Dad now you got little hands could
you reach under that mower and pull out
that skate tipper mine Marge a loving
and nurturing mother who tried to
maintain peace within the family
I made it with Cheetos just like you
like it if the sauce is too thick I can
add more root beer Lisa the extremely
smart eight-year-old I like you too
Milhouse but not in that way you’re more
like a big sister
I’m not why does everybody keep saying
that and baby Maggie I asked you to
watch your sister I tried to stop her
but she overpowered me
bringing MacAskill life as homer and
Marge where dan Castellaneta and Julie
Kavner who were already cast members of
The Tracey Ullman Show in addition
yeardley Smith and Nancy Cartwright were
added to voice Lisa and Bart
respectively I know I didn’t hold up my
end of the bargain but can I go to Ken
coffee yeah sure I didn’t want you
hanging around all summer ready while
these actors would voice much of the
extended cast Hank Azaria came on board
to bring to life such fan favorites as
Moe chief Wiggum and Appu while Harry
Shearer took on roles like Ned Flanders
Principal Skinner
mr. burns and Smithers no time for jokes
movies come along we’re going womanizing
oh goody
together these characters in their
situations lampooned many aspects of
American culture society politics and
history this was accomplished by
involving countless caricatures and
guest appearances in order to make fun
of real-world events and personalities I
can’t believe you never heard of me I’m
a very popular entertainer well of
course I’ve heard of you I mean you’d
have to be living under a rock not to
know what’d you say your name was
Michael Jackson doesn’t ring a bell
although the Simpsons family was
depicted as highly dysfunctional the
show placed much of its focus on
examining their relationships and bonds
with one another
that’s our he’s outside digging probably
digging for drugs there’s no drugs out
there huh no of course not the show’s
annual Halloween special called
treehouse of horror was an enduring fan
favorite my dead curse is just a lot of
silly superstition right Lisa C 2 means
yes The Simpsons became famous for their
hallmarks and running jokes as well
these included the ever-changing opening
couch sequence Bart’s chalkboard gag
Lisa’s saxophone solo and dozens of
words and catchphrases that have made
their way into everyday use and even the
dictionary Oh doh boo boo in 2000
seven after 18 seasons on TV the Simpson
family was brought to the big screen in
their very own feature film
