COMMENTS: Incredibly Endearing
ABC demonstrated it has a soft spot for The Simpsons--who does not?--earlier in the month when it assigned John Berman (subscription required) to cover the promotional contest between all the Springfields of the nation for the right to host the premiere of its movie version. Now that premiere is upon us, Charles Gibson followed up by naming Matt Groening, "his name rhymes with complaining," as ABC's Person of the Week. Groening explained that his own mother's name is Marge and she "did have a beehive hairdo when I was a little kid." He praised the character of Homer Simpson thus: "He is completely ruled by his impulses. He does not feel guilt--and I think that is incredibly endearing."
