When I Look At The Smiles On

'the Simpsons' From The Very Beginning Was Based On Our Memories Of Brash '60s Sitcoms - You Had A Main Title Theme That Was Bombastic And Grabbed Your Attention - And When You Look At Tv Shows Of The 1970s And '80s, Things Got Very Mild And Toned Down And... Obsequious.

If I Have One Technology Tip Of The Day, It's This: No Matter How Good The Video On Youtube Is, Don't Read The Comments, Just Don't, Because It Will Make You Hate All Humans.

The Thing About A Cartoon Is, You Can Do Whatever You Want. The Tightrope That We Are Walking On 'the Simpsons' And 'futurama' Is "how Do You Continue To Surprise The Audience, But Make Them Good Surprises?" Not Every Surprise Is Good, But You Want To Continue Jolting People.

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. They're Printing The Comics So Small That Most Strips Are Just Talking Heads, And If You Look Back At The Glory Days Of Comic Strips, You Can See That They Were Showcases For Some Of The Best Pop Art Ever To Come Out.

I Always Say That 'futurama' Is Real, And 'the Simpsons' Is Fiction.
