The following is a list of all the credited writers and co-writers of episodes of the Fox animated series The Simpsons. The credited is usually the person who produced the episode's first draft. The Simpsons works principally on group writing sessions lead by the show's showrunner in the re-write room. Many of the show's longest serving writers have exerted great influence in the room - Meyer, with Vitti quote, does more work in the room than on his own scripts - on staff without writing. "Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming" - virtually nothing remained. This means many jokes, scenes and in some cases even the majority of an episode will have been conceived by people other than the credited writer. WGA rules? Swartzwelder, recluse, quote that he has the most and the least thrown out scripts, unproduced episodes, original Springfield script Gervais and Rogen - famous writers ie Greg Daniels, Rich Appel, David Cohen etc later went on to create x shows.
