Template:FnbFor the 1990 Emmy Awards, Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire was nominated as a separate cartoon because officially it is considered a TV special and not a part of the series. For this list, it is not a part of the overall count of Simpsons emmy nominations. Template:FnbAccording to DVD commentary, no episodes were nominated in this category in 1993 and 1994 because the producers had instead submitted episodes into the Outstanding Comedy Series category. However, The Simpsons was not nominated in that category, so in 1995 the producers gave up and went back to submitting episodes in the Animation category.

Trivia
- Harry Shearer is the only member of the Main Cast to never win an Emmy for Voice Over Performance. Other notable Simpsons regulars who have not won include Pamela Hayden, Maggie Roswell, Tress MacNeille and guest stars Albert Brooks, Jon Lovitz, Joe Mantegna and Phil Hartman.
- The Simpsons, which has been called the best and funniest TV show of the 1990s, has never been nominated for an Emmy in the comedy category. In 1993 and 1994, the producers did try to submit the show in the category (According to DVD commentary, the episodes that were submitted in 1993 were Mr. Plow and A Streetcar Named Marge) with less than encouraging results. It became apparent that the Emmy voters were not ready to accept an animated show into the Outstanding Comedy show category, and the producers gave up. In 2003, the show was surprisingly nominated for a Golden Globe for Outstanding Comedy Series. The producers felt this was long overdue, but the show lost the award to Curb your Enthusiasm.
- The Simpsons has frequently made fun of the Emmys (as well as other major awards such as the Oscars and especially the Grammys). Some examples:
- In Brother Can You Spare Two Dimes?, Homer wins the First Annual Montgomery Burns Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence. At the show, Bart and Lisa have the following exchange:
- Lisa: "This award show is the biggest farce I ever saw!"
- Bart: "What about the Emmys?"
- Lisa: "I stand corrected."
- In The Front, Grampa won an award that looks suspiciously like an Emmy for writing an episode of Itchy & Scratchy (the show is actually called the Annual Cartoon Awards). His competition includes such shows as "Strondar, Master of Vacom": the wedding episode; "Action Figure Man": the how to buy action figure man episode; and "Ren and Stimpy": season premiere (clip not done yet), a knock at the questionable and forgettable competition that The Simpsons faced in the animation category during the early years of the show.
- In Brother Can You Spare Two Dimes?, Homer wins the First Annual Montgomery Burns Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence. At the show, Bart and Lisa have the following exchange:
- After winning the Emmy in 2006, James L. Brooks set a new record for most Primetime Emmys won with 19. He has won nine for The Simpsons, five for The Mary Tyler Moore Show, three for Taxi, and two for The Tracey Ullman Show. Of those, sixteen were for producing, and three were for writing (two for The Mary Tyler Moore Show and one for The Tracey Ullman Show).
