    Notes 2 A Quotation of Normality – The Family Myth 1 . A less obvious antecedent that The Simpsons benefitted directly and indirectly from was Hanna-Barbera’s Wait ‘til Your Father Gets Home (NBC 1972–1974). This was an attempt to exploit the ratings successes of Norman Lear’s stable of grittier 1970s’ US sitcoms, but as a stepping stone it is entirely noteworthy through its prioritisation of the suburban narrative over the fantastical (i.e., shows like The Flintstones , The Jetsons et al.). 2 . Nelvana was renowned for producing well-regarded production-line chil- dren’s animation throughout the 1980s. It was extended from the 1960s studio Laff-Arts, and formed in 1971 by Michael Hirsh, Patrick Loubert and Clive Smith. Its success was built on a portfolio of highly commercial TV animated work that did not conform to a ‘house-style’ and allowed for more creative practice in television and feature projects (Mazurkewich, 1999, pp. 104–115). 3 . The NBC US version recast Feeble with the voice of The Simpsons regular Hank Azaria, and the emphasis shifted to an American living in England. The show was pulled off the schedules after only three episodes for failing to connect with audiences (Bermam, 1999, para 3). 4 . Aardman’s Lab Animals (2002), planned originally for ITV, sought to make an ironic juxtaposition between the mistreatment of animals as material for scientific experiment and the direct commentary from the animals them- selves, which defines the show. It was quickly assessed as unsuitable for the family slot that it was intended for (Lane, 2003 p.

However, this has not always been the case. For example, during World War II, animations were also produced as instruments for political propaganda as well as educational material for adult audiences. In this thesis, the history of the production of animations in the United States of America will be reviewed, especially as the years of World War II are concerned.

I have fond memories of my days there, and that’s where I always wanted to end my career,” said Sagu, thanking Sidekicks majority owner Ronnie Davis and Tatu for the opportunity to do just that. After playing his first four and a half U.S. professional indoor seasons with the Sidekicks, Sagu, a native of Sao Paulo, Brazil, spent the last eight seasons with the Baltimore Blast of the MISL. In Baltimore, he was named All-League seven times, was Goalkeeper of the Year five times, and helped the Blast win three championships. “Every good team starts with a great goalkeeper, so we are thrilled to welcome Sagu back to the Dallas Sidekicks organization, said Sidekicks Head Coach and General Manager Tatu. “He brings experience and leadership to our team. This is a fantastic beginning for us, and we are so excited to welcome Sagu home.” Sagu expects to spend several more seasons in goal with the Sidekicks. “Goalkeepers are like fine wine--they get better with age,” he joked. “But now that I am in the later stages of my playing career, I want to give something back to the younger generation.
