Room 222 (1969)
Funny link to James L. Brooks
4 April 2007 - 6 out of 11 users found this review helpful.
The creator James L. Books of Room 222 later became the executive producer of The Simpsons.
In episode 281 season 13 of The Simpsons (first aired: Sunday, February 24, 2002) Bart's new idol, Buck McCoy, retells his history in television. During the flashback sequence, he mentions starring in police drama during the 60s which was recast as "Room 222" upon his leaving.
This line from The Simpsons is clearly a reference to a show which James L. Brooks had created and most likely to its unfortunate obscurity.
