Sam Simon to document final months of his life for TV

'The Simpsons' producer Sam Simon will document the last few months of his life for US television.
Simon, who was diagnosed with terminal colon cancer in 2012, will have his final months filmed by the Fusion network, the Hollywood Reporter said.
The programme will focus on Simon's struggles with cancer and his fight for animal rights. He spent a large proportion of his fortune defending vulnerable animals.
He also founded the Sam Simon Foundation, an organisation that saves starving humans and stray dogs.
Simon worked on 'The Simpsons' until 1993, but remained an executive producer.
He has also worked on 'Taxi', 'Cheers', 'The Tracey Ullman Show' and 'The Drew Carey Show' and has received nine Emmy awards.

"Sam Simon is a singular figure. Our hope is to pay tribute to his life and career while also sparking an important conversation about animal rights and empowering young people to be a catalyst for change," Fusion CEO Isaac Lee said of the project.
