The Tracey Ullman Show was the series that the Simpsons shorts appeared on before spinning off into The Simpsons.

==Early life==
Ullman was born on December 30, 1959.
==Lawsuit==
Ullman filed a lawsuit in 1992 claiming that her show was the source of The Simpsons' success and, therefore, should receive a share of the show's profit. "I breast-fed those little devils," Tracey Ullman once said of The Simpsons. She wanted a share of The Simpsons merchandising and gross profits and believed she was entitled to $2.5 millions of Fox's estimated $50 million in 1992. The Fox network had paid her $58,000 in royalties for The Simpsons as well as $3 million for the 3½ seasons her show was on the air. Eventually the courts ruled in favor of the network.
