Mendel worked on Fox’s The Tracey Ullman Show, on which “The Simpsons” began its life as a recurring segment, before moving to the independent series.

He must have started on “The Simpsons” in his early 20s. Too young for him to go, both for his family and friends and for the creative work he’ll now never get to do for the rest of us. Where’s that portal gun when you need one?

I wonder what this will do to the Smith family’s prospects.
