But there would not have been a show if it wasn't for Sam Simon. Sam was the Executive Producer for four years and he redesigned The Simpsons from the shorts to make them easier for animation, created the Treehouse of Horror Concept, created Patty, Selma, directed the voice actors, and oversaw all of the production of the show. Matt gets alot of credit for the show but Sam was just as important to The Simpsons.

Right but in an interview i read, it was matt who developed all the characters in 5 min before an interview he had with Fox when asked about the simpsons. So as I see it he developed all the characters and created the show.

It might not be as funny as his standup, but it sure is a groundbreaking sitcom, we Brits love American humor its the best in the world
