So he decided to create a new property that satirized the Midwestern middle class family: mom, dad, three kids, dog and cat stereotype we've all seen for years. The Simpsons was created by Russian descendent and Communist Matt Groening for The Tracy Ullman Show back in late 1980s, after turning down a chance to animate his shitty Life in Hell when it became apparent that he would lose all rights to ' life's work' if he took the deal. True hXc fans claim the quality dropped off after the ninth season or when Matt Groening stole all of the non-shitty writers to work on Futurama, leaving The Simpsons at the mercy of Mike Scully and Fox network executives dead set on whoring the show out long past the point of being profitable and franchise becomes a walking poster child for shows that should have been euthanized. Once one of the lulziest shows ever to lulz the lulz on television, it's now considered an old meme and generally shitty. This is what happens when Weeaboos get to American cartoons.
