The most enduring Jamaican reference on The Simpsons comes in the form of the show’s beloved Dr. Julius Hibbert, known for his easy laugh. An avowed reggaephile, Matt Groening named the character after legendary Toots and the Maytals singer Toots Hibbert, of “Pressure Drop” and “54-46 Was My Number” fame.
