Matt Groening Talks Nudity,
Endorses FAMILY GUY
And Insists He Was And Is
Involved In THE SIMPSONS!!

I am – Hercules!!


“Simpsons” creator Matt Groening talks to Crave Online about a myriad of topics. Some of what he has to say:

Will “The Simpsons Movie” have dirty parts?

Whoever you don't want to see naked on The Simpsons, you know that's who you're going to see. …

Is Groening as appalled at the quality of “Family Guy” as some of the “Simpsons” writers are said to be?

Seth MacFarlane is a good friend and Family Guy is funny …

Is it true Groening has nothing to do with “The Simpsons” anymore, and he really never had much to do with it, as “Simpsons” writer Mike Reiss is alleged to have told a crowd at Villanova University in 2001?

The idea that I was not involved with the show or less involved with the show is simply not true. I've always been involved with the show. …

Read all of Crave Online’s interview with Groening here.

(And thanks to "Robogeek" for the heads up.)
