Roger Meyers, Sr.

Character Information
|
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 surname has been spelt both "Meyers" and "Myers". An instance of this is "Itchy & Scratchy & Marge", in which both forms appear. His first full cartoon was Steamboat Itchy, in 1928. He was later criticized for his film Nazi Supermen Are Our Superiors and he also made musical films like Scratchtasia (a clear parody of Fantasia) and Pinitchio (Pinocchio).
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.
Behind the Laughter
- Meyers is based on Walt Disney, and him having stolen the idea is somewhat of a parody.
