Ron Hauge is an American television writer and executive
producer.Early in his career, Hauge was a contributor to National
Lampoon. In 1989 he created a graphic for Spy Magazine captioned "The
World Championship," with wars between countries organized in the form
of a tournament bracket; more than 20 years later, it was still being
lauded, in The Atlantic, in a political scientist's blog, and on
Twitter.He then wrote for Seinfeld, In Living Color, The Ren & Stimpy
Show, Rocko's Modern Life, The Mouse and the Monster, and a short
lived reincarnation of The Carol Burnett Show. In 1994, an episode of
Ren and Stimpy that he co-wrote was nominated for an Emmy Award for
Outstanding Animated Program (for Programming One Hour Or Less).Hauge
joined The Simpsons staff in its eighth season. He won an Emmy for
writing the season eight episode "Homer's Phobia", which was his first
episode. The Fox censor objected to the episode's exploration of the
theme of homosexuality and stated that it was "unsuitable for
broadcast". The censors were later fired and their replacements did
not have any objections to the episode.
