Abstract | By teaching a language one also has to teach the respective culture. Language teachers often have to decide which cultural component to include. The article offers ideas on how to use "The Simpsons" as a source of authentical sociocultural teaching materials for EFL students. Being the longest-running animated series in American history it illustrates a humorous parody of the American family. Furthermore, it sets an example to expand on lighter cultural topics like holidays and food or deep social issues concerned with education, the environment or gender differences. The author focuses on various issues and describes how to use clips of the show to arrange lessons into pre-, during-, and post-view activities to help students learn English and understand important elements of American culture and society.
