Yep.

You could do the most horrific things to people and I wouldn’t even bat an eye. But the second you’ve got a hurt dog? Arg.

I can’t help it. With Fox and the Hound… or when Shadow falls in the hole from Homeward Bound… or in Futurama when the it flashes back to the dog waiting for years for Fry.. 

I’m not ashamed to admit that it’ll get to me.

…Futurapoly? …Monorama? Err… Futrama Monopoly!

The Golden (Yellow?) Age.

There’s no denying that The Simpsons has a place in television history. One of the longest runs on American television, it’s a show that nearly three generations have grown up with. The show has become a staple in American culture, “D’oh!” is a reasonable response to something going wrong and the influences of the show can be felt in a variety of different shows.

That scraggly group of individuals you see above were there for what is considered the “Golden Age”.  While Conan O’Brien may be the most recognizable face in the group, the other members’ IMDB pages read like a ‘best of television’. You should also know that a good number of these writers moved on to Futurama. 

So here you go, friends. A complete list of those pictured above and a link to their IMDB page. Enjoy.
