<p>By Emily Mitchell/Reported by Wendy Cole

<p> Suddenly prime time looks like Saturday morning. But the
fans in front of the TV laughing at Fox Broadcasting's cult
clan The Simpsons aren't just youngsters. The cartoon
characters created by Matt Groening sprang into bickering life
on The Tracey Ullman Show; now they've broken out with their
own show and are a hit with all ages. The bug-eyed Simpsons
lose their tempers and are frazzled by the trivial. Smart-aleck
son Bart constantly sasses his folks. "Don't have a cow,
Homer!" he advises his irate father. "Can the chatter," a
fed-up dad tells the kids. Between visits to the local mall,
the beehived mom tries to keep the peace. Is this what family
life is really like? As spike-haired Bart would say, Aye,
carumba!
