Springfield’s Most Wanted

Monday, April 28, 2008
Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein are the new showrunners on Sit Down, Shut Up. They are the guys who wrote some of the greatest Simpsons episodes, like Lisa vs. Malibu Stacy, $pringfield, and Who Shot Mr. Burns Part One and Two.

“Mitch (Hurwitz) wants to be in more of a supervisory role, like Ron Howard on ‘Arrested,’ ” Oakley said in Variety.

Sit Down is “extremely character based, like ‘Arrested Development,’ and has different rhythms than other animated shows like ‘The Simpsons’ or ‘King of the Hill,’” Oakley said.

Mo Willems, who created Cartoon Network’s “Sheep in the Big City,” is handling animation on the show.
