Behind the Scenes of an Episode

Homer

You learn a great deal about what goes on behind the scenes at "The Simpsons" by listening to the commentaries on the DVDs.  When I get a season of "The Simpsons" on DVD, the first thing I do is watch each episode once with the commentary on, which irks James but pleases his father.  There's a great deal of insight into how a concept evolves into an episode and I find it fascinating.

I just read an article by Mark I. Pinsky entitled ""The Simpsons": Behind the scenes of an episode" which fellow Simpson fans will want to read as well.  Lots of neat tidbits and even some jokes from a future episode.

The table reads sound amazing.
