The Simpsons: How long has the cult series been in existence?

• Already in 1989 the first season of the Simpsons was broadcast on the American channel "Fox".
• The creative mind behind the series is Matt Groening, who continues to work on the episodes to this day.
• The series started as a cartoon of a traditional American family on TV. Where up to that time a harmonious family life was mainly represented, the Simpsons represented a counter image.
• So far, 30 seasons have emerged from the initially small series. This makes the series one of the longest running shows on television.
• Many critics note that the series has changed for the worse since it got mainstream. The provocative element of the series would have worn out.
• Nevertheless, the show has consistently good ratings and an increasingly better reputation than in the 1990s.
• By the way, the German dubbing parts for Maggie and Bart Simpson are the only roles that have not been changed across all seasons.
