What is Al Jean?
The man who, since becoming executive producer on The Simpsons, has overseen it go from one of the funniest and well-written shows on TV crammed with sharp observations on the minutiae of modern life, to an endless procession of puerile humour, needless celebrity cameos, and the feeling they haven’t done any work on the script after the initial draft before chucking it on TV.
Al Jean will be forever remembered as the person responsible for The Simpsons being an embarassing shadow of its former self.
