I always say that 'Futurama' is real, and 'The Simpsons' is fiction.
I like the 'Simpsons' pinball machines. Those are pretty great.
The Simpsons are going to Delaware!
In the pressure cooker of a TV show, it’s a little bit of a witches’ brew. I completely think I’m capable of being crazy. I probably was crazy when I was doing 'The Simpsons'.
'The Simpsons' is an especially collaborative show.
I had the X rating on my films. Now they do as much on The Simpsons as I got an X rating for Fritz the Cat.
With The Simpsons you can go back to work with a keen heart.
Its consistency of what comedy can do and what comedy can be. Growing up with that show [The Simpsons] shaped my worldview.
The Simpsons can go anywhere in the world and not worry about any budgetary issues. However, even when the show has had its run, I think the characters can go on in perpetuity
America needs to be a lot more like the Waltons and a lot less like the Simpsons.

I don't really know what the average person thinks about animation. I think the average person thinks that it's made by cartoonists - and it used to be. When people think of The Simpsons, they think of Matt Groening. They don't think of whoever the 200 writers are.
I know for a fact, obviously, because my kids grew up watching the show, that there are some things they are introduced to from 'The Simpsons', and then later in life they see the thing we're parodying. My kids had not seen 'Casablanca,' and we'd done parodies of 'Casablanca. '
I like 'The Simpsons' quite a lot. I love the irreverent character of the whole show. It's great.

We've got a bunch of new writers now who tell me they grew up watching The Simpsons. It's bizarre, and they're writing some very funny stuff.
They [ The Simpsons] are just like the Bible to me as far as what the high-water mark of comedy.
