Originally created by cartoonist Matt Groening, "Our Favorite Family," has graced the small screen in one form or another for over 20 years. The Simpson family first appeared on television as the subjects of interstitial "shorts" on The Tracey Ullman Show in April of 1987. The Simpsons remained a staple on The Tracey Ullman Show for three seasons until they premiered in their own half-hour series, on December 17, 1989. With the help of Jim Brooks and Sam Simon, Matt Groening's cartoon family turned into an instant success.
Set in Springfield, the average American town, the show focuses on the antics and everyday adventures of the Simpson family; Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie, as well as a virtual cast of thousands. Since the beginning, the series has been a pop culture icon, attracting hundreds of celebrities to guest star. The show has also made name for itself in its fearless satirical take on politics, media and American life in general.

4x won prizes at the MySeries of the Year election
This is a series recommended by my cousin. This series was released in 1989 when I was barely born. And is still going strong. For almost 22 years, the yellow family has been a favorite of young and old. Smile and fun every episode. Homer, Marge, Bart the bully and his nerdy sister Lisa and super cute baby Maggie. Plus all the other residents of the non-fictional Illinois town of Springfield. I hope The Simpsons make many more seasons.
