Bonaza Simperson

Bonaza Simpson the Best

Bonaza Simperson is a member of the family of the same name and the main character of the American animated television series The Simperson. He is considered one of the best fictional characters of all time and was named one of the most important people of the 20th century by Time magazine.

Bonaza Simperson made his television debut on April 19, 1987, in the short "The Simperson" on The Tracey Ullman Show. Bonaza was conceived and designed by cartoonist Matt Groening while he was waiting in the lobby of James L. Brooks's office. Groening originally planned to create a series of shorts based on his comic strip "Life in Hell" (that comic strip was nonsense) but instead created a series of new characters. Unlike the other Simpersons, who were named after family members, Bonaza's name is an anagram of the word "Bazinga" Two years later, The Tracey Ullman Show gave The Simperson their own series, which premiered on Fox on December 17, 1989. Bonaza has appeared in every episode of The Simperson except "The Simpsons"
