Dan Greaney
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dan Greaney is a writer for The Simpsons. He was hired during the seventh season, but left after season eleven to try to make it big writing pilots. When that venture failed, he returned to the Simpsons staff during the thirteenth season. According to the DVD commentaries, prior to writing for the Simpsons, Greaney was working as a lawyer and was contemplating moving to Kiev, Ukraine to work for a start-up company. He says the Simpsons "saved me from that".
His earlier episodes (King-Size Homer, Summer of 4 Ft. 2) are considered by many to be some of the shows best episodes while his later ones (Bonfire of the Manatees) have received less enthusiastic reviews. He -- this is him writing now, in response to the foregoing -- says that he thinks "I D'oh-Bot" is pretty good, and that "Bart to the Future" is actually kind of a classic but is resisted by some fans for its negative-but-honest portrait of Bart's likely future. He thinks that saying he hit a late-career slump may be overstating things a bit.
