Roger Meyers, Sr.

Roger Meyers, Sr. is the founder of I&S Studios which produce Itchy & Scratchy cartoons. Roger Meyers, Jr. is his son who took over the company upon his death. Their name has been spelled as Meyers and Myers. In some episodes, such as "Itchy & Scratchy & Marge", both forms appear. The first full cartoon was Steamboat Itchy in 1928. He was later criticised for his film Nazi supermen are our superiors and he also made musical films like Scratchtasia (a clear pun of Fantasia) and Pinitchio (Pinochio).

In "The Day the Violence Died", it was revealed that Meyers had not invented Itchy and had instead stolen the character from Chester J. Lampwick.
