History

Historical Context

When Fox launched The Simpsons on December 17 1989, it became the network’s first series to crack the top-30 ratings and proved prime-time animation could draw massive audiences. The show’s record-breaking run—surpassing The Flintstones in 1997—showed that legacy cartoons could become long-term revenue engines, a model now echoed by streaming services reviving older series.
