Did you know that the longest running prime-time sitcom in the United States is an animated show? Yep, that’s right. First airing as a series of shorts in 1987 as part of “The Tracey Ullman Show,” The Simpsons™ has proven to be so much more than a cartoon, it’s a cultural phenomenon. Best known for its paired-down illustration style, bold hues, clever Easter eggs sprinkled in for superfans and LOL-worthy satirical social commentary, The Simpsons™ basically created the concept of the meme and contributed to cool colloquialisms that are still referenced to this day.
