For The Simpsons alone, he’ll be remembered forever and yet, he did so much more in and outside of comedy.

Sam Simon, the co-creator of The Simpsons, winner of 9 Primetime Emmys, writer/producer on It’s Garry Shandling Show, co-creator of The George Carlin Show, and so much more passed away today at the age of 59 after a long battle with colon cancer.

Not that you ever need a reason to watch The Simpsons catalog, but make sure to remember Simon fondly every time you see his name at the end of the couch gag.

‘The Simpsons’ Sam Simon To Receive WGA’s Valentine Davies Award

One of the developers behind The Simpsons, Sam Simon, is getting honored by the WGA with the Valentine Davies Award.

We don’t know if the WGA or Sam would be into it, but it would be pretty great if the award had his Simpsons Halloween nickname that they give the whole cast and crew during their Halloween episode.
