    Show description

    The most successful animated series to date, The Simpsons is about a family of misfits living in the typical American small town of Springfield. Between rebellious teenager Bart, older sister Lisa, regular beer-drinking man-on-couch Homer, his sensible wife Marge and innocent baby Maggie, the Simpsons manage to get themselves into plenty of hilarious situations, which resolve themselves in graphic and imaginative ways. The series spoofs current political, social and economic issues with plenty of humour and intelligence. Along with a whole host of other extreme characters representing anything from ruthless industry (Mr. Burns), to mindless entertainment (Krusty The Klown), this is an animated series that will never run out of material.
