Even though they are yellow and animated, The Simpsons are one of the best known families in the US. The show has had remarkable success, starting as a segment on the Tracy Ullman Show and then into a half-hour show on Fox in 1989. Twenty-three seasons later it’s America’s longest running sitcom and Homer, Bart, Marge, Lisa & Maggie are still at it. All success stories have a beginning, and if you’re feeling nostalgic, get a copy of the The Simpsons Season 1. The art and voices were a bit crude the first time around – but hey, that’s part of the charm.
