 The shorts were featured on the first three seasons on ''The Tracey Ullman Show''. By the fourth and last season of ''The Tracey Ullman Show'' the first season of the half-hour show was on the air. In the two first seasons the shorts were divided into three or four parts, in the third season they were played as a single story. [[Tracey Ullman]] filed a lawsuit, claiming that her show was the source of ''The Simpsons'' success and therefore should receive a share of the show's profit. Eventually the courts ruled in favor of the network.<ref name="ullman">{{cite news |first=Frank|last=Spotnitz|title=Eat my shorts!|publisher=Entertainment Weekly|page=8(1)|date=[[1992-10-23]]}}</ref>

 '''''The Simpsons'' shorts''' is a series of one-minute shorts that ran on the variety show ''[[The Tracey Ullman Show]]'' for three seasons, before the characters spun off into their own half-hour prime time show called ''[[The Simpsons]]''. The shorts were created by cartoonist [[Matt Groening]] in the lobby of [[James L. Brooks]]'s office. He had been called in to pitch a series of animated shorts, and had intended to present his ''[[Life in Hell]]'' series. When he realized that animating ''Life in Hell'' would require him to rescind publication rights for his life's work, Groening decided to go in another direction.<ref name="americasfirstfamily">{{cite video|people=BBC|year=2000|title='The Simpsons': America's First Family (6 minute edit for the season 1 DVD)|url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250735/|format=DVD|location=UK|publisher=20th Century Fox}}</ref> He hurriedly sketched out his version of a dysfunctional family, and named the characters after his own family.<ref name="americasfirstfamily"/> Bart was modeled after Groening's older brother, Mark, but given a different name which was chosen as an anagram of "brat."<ref name="mark">{{cite news|first=Alan |last=Paul|title=Matt Groening|format=Interview|publisher=Flux Magazine Issue #6|pages= |page= |date=[[1999-09-30]]}}</ref>
