OTTO MATIC ABANDONWARE SERIES
The series concerns the foibles of the working class Simpson family in a small American town called Springfield. The Simpsons looked… less than polished in their Tracey Ullman Show debut. In spite of an inauspicious mid-season debut in December 1989, Groening’s cartoon would rapidly establish itself as one of the most popular satirical voices of its era. Creator Matt Groening soon amassed a team of excellent animators, writers, and voice actors to produce a thirty minute version based on the success of the shorts. Its cultural ubiquity was hardly self-evident, however, when the animated franchise’s core characters debuted in a series of shorts on the Tracey Ullman Show from 1987 to 1989. The Simpsons is the longest-running prime-time television show in the United States at the time of writing in mid-2019, with 662 episodes produced since 1989.
