Angry Dad is a fictional comic turned Internet series created by Bart Simpson. It is about Angry Dad, a character who does stupid things and gets angry—based on Homer's real-life rages. When Lisa accused Bart of simply basing Angry Dad on Homer (and, by implication, accusing him of lacking creativity), Bart denied it and said that Angry Dad was a composite character: "Your (Lisa's) dad, my dad, a little of Maggie's dad."

History

Bart originally made Angry Dad to be a comic book, until a man from the website BetterThanTV.com offered to make it into an animated series.

At one point, Homer tried to give up rage, and Bart quickly realized that would eliminate his source of material, as Angry Dad was largely inspired by Homer's tantrums. To save the cartoon, Bart built an elaborate trap to make Homer mad. Soon after that, though, Bart learned that BetterThanTV.com had gone out of business and no more Angry Dad episodes were being produced, making the trap pointless. Bart then hurried home to try to stop Homer from falling into the trap, but it was too late: Homer had already fallen for the trap, gotten provoked into an extreme rage, and then gone on an angry rampage all over Springfield. Happily, it worked out for the best as Dr. Hibbert discovered that Homer's rages were actually beneficial for his health.

Later, BetterThanTV.com made an Angry Dad short film. It won a Golden Globe award and an Academy Award.
