Sam Simon was a NINE time Emmy winner who wrote episodes of ‘Barney Miller’, ‘Taxi’, ‘Cheers’, ‘Garry Shandling’, and ‘Drew Cary Show’. But Simon was best known as the co-creator of ‘The Simpsons’. Even though he left the show in 1993, he retained executive producer credit as the show continued, raking in some righteous bank for two decades. Even Statan doesn’t know how one gets a job where the do nothing for 2 decades and get paid a fortune.
So then Simon spent Homer’s money. He became a professional poker player and a philanthropist, giving over $100M to charities, primarily those for children and animals. In the last few years, he was known to buy zoos and circuses just to free the animals.
That will get us started. The scores page has been updated, congratulations to the point winners.
Insincerely, Commissioners Satan and Missy
