Things you did not know about: The Simpson

Hello Steemians.

Today I want to share with you 10 things that maybe you did not know about the popular TV series: The Simpsons.

1. In the opening, Maggie used to mark the $ 847.63 in the cash register because in 1989, it was the average price for raising a baby for a month. As the years have passed, the amount has changed, as can be seen in recent seasons.
2. Homer has had more than 75 professions throughout the series. Astronaut, machinist, bodyguard, opera singer, boxer, grunge star, stylist, film and cooking critic, paparazzi, etc.
3. The reason why Groening called the town Springfield was because there are dozens of different cities with that name in the United States (keeping fans guessing which state the Simpsons belong to).
4. Ever wonder why the residents of Springfield are yellow. Creator Matt Groening told the BBC: "An animator came suddenly with The Simpsons in yellow and as soon as he showed them to me, I said: 'This is the answer!' Because when you are browsing the channels with the remote control, and a flash of yellow passes, you'll know you're watching The Simpsons. "
5. Homer's favorite beer, Duff, exists in real life. It has gone through several manufacturers, from Mexico to Germany.
6. Until 1998, the six main voice actors for the show earned $ 30,000 per episode. From then until 2004, they earned $ 125,000 per show. Today, they get a whopping $ 400,000 per episode.
7. Only the character of God has five fingers. While the characters in the series have one finger less in the hand, compared to the human hand.
8. More than 600 guests have appeared in the series. Lady Gaga, Elon Musk, Natalie Portman, Mel Gibson, Stephen King, etc.
9. The two alien characters, Kang and Kodos, are named after Star Trek characters: The Original Series (where Kang is a Klingon warrior and Kodos is a mass murderer).
10. Former President George Bush once blamed the Simpsons for the problems of society, claiming that American families should be less like The Simpsons and more like The Waltons.
