About This Book

The Simpsons are not only the world's most famous TV family; they arealso the protagonists of one of the longest-lasting animation programs inUS television. Over the course of the past thirty years, the yellow fivefrom Springfield have become an indispensable part of American popularculture which still turns academics into fans and inspires fans toresearch the objects of their fascination.This book focuses on the Halloween Special TREEHOUSE OF HORROR, a part ofTHE SIMPSONS which research has largely left unnoticed. If THE SIMPSONSrevolutionized how we look through television at US-American culture andsociety, TREEHOUSE OF HORROR has changed the way we re-memberpopular-culture history by way of horror traditions. This studydemonstrates how Matt Groening's cartoon shows have painted a yellowarchive of the digital age.
