I like the 'Simpsons' pinball machines. Those are pretty great.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

I have less to do with 'The Simpsons' every season, but I stick my nose in here and there. Basically, it's just trying to keep the characters consistent and making sure the show has a soul.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

I draw a weekly comic strip called Life in Hell, which is syndicated in about 250 newspapers. That's what I did before The Simpsons, and what I plan to do for the rest of my life.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

I know for a fact, obviously, because my kids grew up watching the show, that there are some things they are introduced to from 'The Simpsons', and then later in life they see the thing we're parodying. My kids had not seen 'Casablanca,' and we'd done par

I may be biting off more than I can chew, but with 'The Simpsons' and with 'Futurama,' what I'm trying to do in the guise of light entertainment, if this is possible - is nudge people, jostle them a little, wake them up to some of the ways in which we're

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

With 'Futurama,' I wanted to do unrequited love, and David Cohen agreed, and although our original plan was never to have Fry and Leela get together, we finally just said, 'You can only string the fans along so far.'

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

A lot of our writers, like Conan O'Brien, moved on to other things.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

We did 'The Simpsons Movie,' which took almost four years; it was the same people that do the TV show, and it just killed us. So that's why there hasn't been a second movie. But I imagine if the show ever does go off the air, they'll start doing movies.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

'The Simpsons' basically - and 'Futurama' - are really smart shows. They're kind of disguised as these goofy animated sitcoms, but the references within the shows, if you're paying attention, are pretty smart and pretty sophisticated.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

I grew up completely overwhelmed by TV, and part of the reason why I have gone into television is as a way to justify to myself all those wasted hours of watching TV as a kid. I can now look back and say, 'Oh, that was research.'

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

I've loved science fiction ever since I was a little kid, mainly from looking at the covers of science-fiction magazines and books, and I've read quite extensively as an adult.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

We have 'Doctor Who' references on 'Futurama,' but we have a lot of science fiction references that I don't get; but in the staff we have experts on 'Star Trek,' 'Star Wars,' 'Doctor Who' and 'Dungeons and Dragons.'

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

Because good writing in a TV cartoon is so rare, I think the animation on The Simpsons is often overlooked.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

Since I was there in the very beginning, I know the history of the characters. So, I make comments about the tone and sometimes remind the writers that we've done that before.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

Nihilism in American comedy came along way before 'The Simpsons.' There was a fairly nihilistic point of view to 'Saturday Night Live,' for instance, back in the beginning, and a lot of really dark comedy had a really anti-sentimental take on life.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

'The Simpsons' is about alienation and the ambivalence of living with a family who you love but who drive you completely crazy.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

I think in daily newspapers, the way comic strips are treated, it's as if newspaper publishers are going out of their way to kill the medium.

» Matt Groening (1954-?) American Cartoonist

The nice thing about 'Futurama' for me personally was that it was a way to honor some of the traditional ideas in literary science fiction, not so much movie or television science fiction - although we have that too, obviously. Our situation, a workplace
