No one on planet Earth has ever turned an act of petty annoyance into a multi-million dollar empire quite like The Simpsons ...
The Simpsons premiered when I was in Kindergarten. I remember watching the Christmas Special in December 1989 on my TV with rabbit-ear antennas and a manual channel dial--no remote control.
As a safety inspector at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, Homer Simpson is the primary breadwinner of his household.
The Simpsons started out as a show focusing on Bart, but somewhere along the way, the series pivoted its focus onto Homer.
