''The Simpsons'' is an American animated comedy franchise whose eponymous family consists of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie. The Simpsons were created by cartoonist Matt Groening for a series of animated shorts that debuted on ''The Tracey Ullman Show'' on Fox on April 19, 1987. After a three-season run, the sketch was developed into ''The Simpsons'', a half-hour prime time show that was an early hit for Fox, becoming the first Fox series to land in the Top 30 ratings in a season (1989–1990). The popularity of ''The Simpsons'' has made it a billion-dollar merchandising and media franchise. Alongside the television series, the characters of the show have been featured in a variety of media, including books, comic books, a magazine, musical releases and video games. ''The Simpsons Movie'', a feature-length film, was released in 2007 and was the eighth highest grossing film of the year. A variety of merchandise, including T-shirts, DVDs, board games and action figures has been released. ''The Simpsons'' merchandise has sold well, generating $2 billion in revenue during the first 14 months of sales. In 2003, about 500 companies around the world were licensed to use ''The Simpsons'' characters in their advertising. In 2008, $750 million worth of ''The Simpsons'' merchandise was purchased worldwide. Peter Byrne, Fox executive vice-president of licensing and merchandising, called ''The Simpsons'' "without doubt the biggest licensing entity that Fox has had, full stop, I would say from either TV or film."〔 == Background ==
