'''''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. He hurriedly sketched out his version of a dysfunctional family, and named the characters after his own family. Bart was modeled after Groening's older brother, Mark, but given a different name which was chosen as an anagram of "brat."

The stories were written and storyboarded by Matt Groening. The family was crudely drawn, because Groening had submitted basic sketches to the animators, assuming they would clean them up; instead they just traced over his drawings. The animation was produced domestically at [[Klasky Csupo]], with [[Wesley Archer]], [[David Silverman]], and [[Bill Kopp]] being animators for the first season. After season one it was animated by Archer and Silverman. [[Georgie Peluse]] was the colorist and the person who decided to make the characters yellow.

The characters are voiced by the same people known from ''The Simpsons''. [[Dan Castellaneta]] performed the voices of [[Homer Simpson]], [[Abraham Simpson]], and [[Krusty the Clown]].

Bart's guilt.png

Bart's guilt is a manifestation of Bart's guilt.

When Bart became jealous of the attention Lisa was getting after she got a new hat, which she affectionately named "Sunny", Bart threw the hat out of the car window while Lisa was sleeping and into a scrapyard. That night, Bart's guilt appeared to him. Bart was adamant that he didn't feel guilty about throwing away Lisa's hat, and Bart's denial also showed up to protect him, but Bart's guilt snapped his denial's neck. Later, Bart woke up in the night to find that his guilt was still there. Bart told his guilt that he looked worse, and Bart's guilt told him that Bart's lack of remorse made him grow. Bart's guilt then got bigger and greener, scaring Bart. However, Bart still tried to take it in stride, telling his guilt that he liked gross things when his guilt ate his pillow and spat it out covered in green goop, and enjoyed being eaten and pooped out by his guilt too.

The next morning, Bart's guilt had grown even bigger. Bart lied to his family, telling them that he had slept well. Marge then asked if he had seen Lisa's hat, and Bart's guilt grew again. Bart told Marge that he didn't remember Lisa having a hat, causing his guilt to grow even more. Bart's guilt then blew his nose on the kitchen curtains and cooked his hand in the waffle maker...
