"
Good Night" (also known as "
Good Night Simpsons") is the first of forty-eight
Simpsons shorts that appeared on the variety show
The Tracey Ullman Show. It originally aired April 19, 1987, during the third episode of
The Tracey Ullman Show and marks the first appearance of the
Simpson family - Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie — on television. After three seasons on
Tracey Ullman, the shorts would be adapted into the animated show
The Simpsons. "Good Night" has since been aired on the show in the episode "
The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular" (in its entirety), along with several other Ullman shorts, and is one of the few shorts to ever be released on DVD, being included in the Season 1 DVD set.
