      Historie, fakta a úplné lži o Simpsonových. Mike Reiss – čtyřnásobný vítěz cenny Emmy, který na Simpsonových pracuje už od roku 1989 – přináší příběhy, skandály a drby o nejznámější americké kreslené rodince. Vysvětluje tvůrčí pozadí seriálu a představuje ostatní autory, animátory, herce i hostující celebrity. Odpovídá na řadu fanouškovských dotazů a vzpomíná na vznik nejoblibenějších epizod. Profesionální vtipálek se zároveň zamýšlí nad vlastním životem se Simpsonovými a zdůrazňuje své úspěchy i neúspěchy. Čtenářům prozradí, proč jsou všechny postavičky v seriálu žluté, jaké to je trávit šedesát hodin týdně v místnosti plné humoristů nebo na co přišel při cestě po 70 zemích světa, kde Simpsonovy vysílají (v některých přitom ani nefunguje elektřina!). A možná se dozvíte i odpověď na otázku ze všech nejpalčivější: Kde ten zpropadený Springfield vlastně leží?
