'''Matthew Abram''' "'''Matt'''" '''Groening''' (born February 15, 1954) is the creator of the comic strip ''[[Life in Hell]]'' and television series' ''[[The Simpsons]]'' and ''[[Futurama]]''. Groening made his first professional cartoon sale of ''Life in Hell'' to the avant-garde ''Wet'' magazine in 1978. The cartoon is still carried in 250 weekly newspapers. He was also interviewed in ''[[The Simpsons: Celebrity Friends]]'', ''[[The Simpsons: Mischief & Mayhem]]'', ''[[The Simpsons: Access All Areas]]'', ''[[The Simpsons 20th Anniversary Special – In 3-D! On Ice!]]'', ''[[The Simpsons: America's First Family]]'', and ''[[The Simpsons: A Culture Show]]''.

''Life in Hell'' caught the attention of [[James L. Brooks]]. In 1985, Brooks contacted Groening with the proposition of working in animation for the [[FOX]] variety show ''[[The Tracey Ullman Show]]''. Originally, Brooks wanted Groening to adapt his ''Life in Hell'' characters for the show. Fearing the loss of ownership rights, Groening decided to create something new and came up with a cartoon family, [[Simpson family|the Simpsons]], and named the members after his own parents and sisters — while [[Bart Simpson|Bart]] was an anagram of the word brat. The shorts would be spun off into their own series: ''The Simpsons'', which has since aired 530 episodes in 24 seasons as of May [[2013]]. In [[1997]], Groening got together with [[David X. Cohen]] and developed ''Futurama'', an animated series about life in the year 3000, which premiered in [[1999]]. After four years on the air, the show was canceled by Fox in 2003, but Comedy Central commissioned 16 new episodes from four direct-to-DVD films. In June [[2009]], Comedy Central ordered 26 new episodes of ''Futurama'', to be aired over two seasons. His advice to beginning cartoonists is to not care about what over people think and just try to make yourself laugh. He said that if he did not think up ''The Simpsons'', he would probably be in a tire shop, drawing doodles of his boss on the break room wall.

Suzanne the Witch.png

Suzanne is a witch who lives in a Gingerbread House.

After Bart and Lisa were thrown into the Deep Dark Woods, they found their way to the Gingerbread House. At first, Lisa wanted to look up the house in her copy of Grimms' Fairy Tales, but the offer of free candy from Suzanne was enough for her and Bart to enter the house. Soon, the two of them were chained up, with Bart being force fed sweets and Lisa being made to clean the house. Meanwhile, Homer returned home without the kids, and Marge made him go and look for them.

While Bart was eating, Lisa pointed out that Suzanne was only fattening him up so she could eat him, but Bart didn't care. As Bart and Lisa spoke, Suzanne entered the room again and told them to stop chattering and told Lisa to get back to sweeping as the house was filthy. Bart asked why she cared as it wasn't like she had a boyfriend. Suzanne became defensive and said that she did have a boyfriend called George. When she looked at her cauldron, she gave George the surname of "Cauldron". Bart and Lisa laughed at Suzanne because they assumed she was making her boyfriend up...
