'''Matt Groening''' is the creator of [[The Simpsons]] and the show "Futurama". He appears on [[The Simpsons]] twice, and voiced himself.  There is a version of him featured on the [[138th Episode Spectacular]], wearing an eyepatch and being voiced by one of the usual actors. He also appears in The Simpsons Video Game. Matt also mentions in the [[Simpsons Game]] that Futurama made him rich and will make Bart and Homer toast.

When any Simpsons characters are kicked in the 'privates', they will say something like 'Ow, my Groen'. A reference to his name. On the Simpsons game, his worker called him Groen instead of Groening and he says that he is called Groeing. She replies 'are you sure' and he says 'no'.
