Herman Millwood

Herman Millwood is a furniture producer and animation studio owner, who helps Bart to turn his old web cartoon, Angry Dad, into a movie.
== History ==
As a child, Herman used to make chairs, which angered his father, who insisted that in their family, they sit on the ground.
Eventually, Herman became the head of his own furniture company, who produced the Aerochair, dubbed by Lisa as "the most comfortable ergonomic chair there is". At some point in his life, he became the owner of an animation studio named Nickel N' Dime.
In 1999, the Internet startup company, BetterThanTV.com, ordered many of his Aerochairs, however, after the tech bubble pop in 2002, it went out of business and the chairs were never paid for, so Millwood's company repossessed the only thing the company had left - their cartoons, such as Space Penis; Geena Davis Internet Project 1999; John Stankworth, Fart Detective; The Adventures of Parody Man and Angry Dad.
Milwood then contacts Bart about wanting to make the cartoon into a movie, having been approached by Hollywood, who are completely out of good ideas. He then takes Homer and Bart on a tour to "Nickel 'N' Dime Animation Studio", where the movie is produced.

He is based on a real-life furniture company Herman Miller, which was named after its new owner Herman Miller, after whom the company was named in 1923. The Aerochair is a parody of America's best-selling chair Aeron chair, an office chair designed and produced by the company since 1994 which was very popular with the late-1990s/early-2000s dot-com bubble web startups.
