Notable Nostalgia

34. A Conversation with Al Jean


Listen Later

On a special episode of Notable Nostalgia, we are joined by Al Jean! Al is notably known as a writer from the Simpsons starting at season one and over the years has been a producer, head writer, and showrunner for the series on almost all 32 seasons of the series. He is also notably known as the co-creator of the very funny animated 90s series The Critic! We ask Al about his start in comedy writing working for Johnny Carson and Gary Shandling, which characters he had in the development in Simpsons characters, his work on the Critic and much more! We also take the time to review one of Al's personal favorite episodes from the Critic, "Siskel and Ebert and Jay and Alice!" Plus, quizmaster Jeff is in for a round of "Do You Know It?!" All this and much more!
