I have less to do with 'The Simpsons' every season, but I stick my nose in here and there. Basically, it's just trying to keep the characters consistent and making sure the show has a soul.

People go into cartooning because they're shy and they're angry. That's when you're sitting in the back of a classroom drawing the teacher.
