    It's gotta be Hank Scorpio but I don't know if he counts since he's not a reoccurring charachter. Genius charachter in an absolutely top notch episode


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,187 ✭✭✭keefg


    Lenny & Carl
    For me it has to be good old Monty Burns. His evil knows no bounds and some of his sayings and the way he treats everyone cracks me up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,614 ✭✭✭The Sparrow


    Lenny & Carl
    Yeah Mr. Burns for me too... whoever wrote his dialogue was a genius. I love all of his old fashioned phrases and all of the out of fashion terms (the negro-leagues!) that he uses.

    Good question. Needed to be asked,

    Tough one, i went for Wigum, but was tempted by Millhouse. I think my all time favorite Simpsons moment was when he answered the door and went - "whasssssuuppppppp",

    Classic,


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 205 ✭✭Prefabsprouter


    He's not there but Dr. Hibbert is class. Also Mayor Quimby is an excellent recurring character. But I cant vote for either!!!

    Toss up between Burns and Wiggum.

    Honerable mention goes to Apu though. Sing with me "Who needs the Kwik-E Mart - I Dooooooooooo".

    I love Jasper,

    'You'd better believe thats a paddelin'

    'I've awakened in the future.....Moon Pie, what a time to be alive'

    and the bit where he didn't want to come alone in the car to rescue Tamzarian is gold.

    poll is flawed.

    doesn't have Gil or the guy that says "hey watch it, fattie!"

    This has actually got me thinking! Lenny and Carl are great charaters,

    Carl: "You counting the neck?"
    Lenny: "You know I am"

    has to be wiggum

    "This is Papa Bear. Put out an APB for a male suspect, driving a... car of some sort, heading in the direction of, uh, you know, that place that sells chili. Suspect is hatless. Repeat, hatless."


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    Lenny & Carl
    It has to be Monty Burns for me. His dialogue is fantastic.

    "I could crush him like an ant. But it would be too easy. No, revenge is a dish best served cold. I'll bide my time until ... Oh, what the hell. I'll just crush him like an ant." :D

    Patty & Selma are great too though. And Moe. And (even though he's not in this poll) Sideshow Bob.
    EDIT: Oh, and I LOVE Kang & Kodos! Damn there's just too many options :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29 Zizou


    What about the duff man ??

    Titanya: But Duffman, you said if I slept with you I wouldn't have to touch the drunk!
    Duffman: Duffman... says a lot of things! Oh, yeah!

    I have to go with Burnsey!!! BOOOURNES!!

    i love his old school speak.. he is wicked evil too :)
    Smithers: Why don't you just use your ATM card?
    Burns: Ah, yes. The Automated Teller Machineyolamatrolamaton.
    A nickel will buy you a steak and kidney pie, a cup of coffee, a slice of cheesecake and a newsreel.
    With enough change left over to ride the trolley from Battery Park to the Polo Grounds.
    No! I thought, uh, I thought I'd chauffeur myself this evening.
    Yes, that's what I thought. How difficult could it be? I'm sure
    the manual will indicate which lever is the velocitator and
    which the deceleratrix, hmm?

    Wow tough one, has to be Moe though he's so pathetic.

    "Hey Midge"

    "How about instead of 'What I got ya gotta get and put it in ya' you say "What I want is to really hug and kiss ya'"

    It was a toss up between including Gill and including the Yokels, I went for the Yokels. Also had to leave out a few others, theres like 300 characters in there anbd only 20 poll options unfortuanately.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,008 ✭✭✭Bijoux


    It's gotta be Mr. Burns!!!

    [FONT=Comic Sans MS, Courier New, Arial]Mr. Burns: I'm looking for something in an attack dog. One who likes the sweet gamey tang of human flesh. Hmmm, why here's the fellow ... Wiry, fast, firm, proud buttocks. Reminds me of me.

    [/FONT]Mr.Burns: Quick Smithers. Bring the mind eraser device!
    Smithers:You mean the revolver, sir?
    Mr.Burns: Precisely.

    Mr. Burns: Look at that pig. Stuffing his face with donuts on my time! That's right, keep eating...Little do you know you're drawing ever closer to the poison donut! [cackles evilly, then stops abruptly] There is a poison one, isn't there Smithers?
    Smithers: Err...no, sir. I discussed this with our lawyers and they consider it murder.

    Lenny and Carl from that poll. They are so funny


    "Homer: I want everyone to know that this is Ned Flanders... my friend!
    Lenny: What did he say?
    Carl: I dunno. Somethin' about being gay."


    "Carl: According to the map, the cabin should be right here.
    Lenny: Hey, maybe there is no cabin. Maybe it's one of them metaphorical things.
    Carl: Oh yeah, yeah... Like maybe the cabin is the place inside each of us, created by our goodwill and teamwork.
    Lenny: Oh! ...Nah, they said there would be sandwiches."

    "Carl: Oh no! Homer's going over those falls!
    Lenny: Oh good! He snagged that tree branch.
    Carl: Oh no! The branch broke off!
    Lenny: Oh good! He can grab onto them pointy rocks!
    Carl: Oh no! Them pointy rocks broke his arms and legs.
    Lenny: Oh good! Those helpful beavers are swimming out to save him!
    Carl: Oh no! They're biting him, and stealing his pants!"

    Voted for Lionel Hutz, only because Troy McClure wasn't in the poll.

    Hutz:
    Mr. Simpson, this is the most blatant case of fraudulent advertising since my suit against the film, "The Never-Ending Story".
    Homer: So. Do you think I have a case?
    Hutz: Homer, I don't use the word "hero" very often, but you are the greatest hero in American history.
    Homer: Woo hoo!

    I would have voted for Sideshow Bob, if he was there.

    I went for Ralph Wiggum.

    After getting caught in a giant wave, he says "I think I wet my bed" - priceless :D

    Monty Burns. The writing for that character was brilliant back in the day. It's gone to ****e these days, but then again so has the writing in general. Just like the way Homer used to hillarious but is now just obnoxious.

    Also, Sideshow Bob, Mrs. Krabapple and Lionel Hutz.

    "Mrs. Krabapple, how will we know when we find true love?"
    "Oh don't worry, most of you will never find love and will marry out of fear of dying alone".

    Lionel Hutz for me.

    "Mr. Simpson, don't you worry. I watched Matlock in a bar last night. The sound wasn't on, but I think I got the gist of it."

    He's also one of the few characters that hasn't been tainted by The Simpsons' descent into crappiness the last several years.

    Didn't see Kent Brockman in the poll either.

    Kent Brockman: ... and the fluffy kitten played with that ball of string all through the night. On a lighter note, a Kwik-E-Mart clerk was brutally murdered last night.

    Kent Brockman: Ladies and gentlemen, I've been to Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, and I can say without hyperbole that this is a million times worse than all of them put together.

    Kent Brockman: Well, what do you say to the accusation that your group has been causing more crimes than it's been preventing?
    Homer: Oh, Kent, I'd be lying if I said my men weren't committing crimes...
    Kent Brockman: ...Well, touché.

    Man getting hit by football!!!!

    Other classic Moleman moments:
    - The change your life seminar guy throwing him through a window
    - Driving a truck with Edgar Allen Poe's house attached when Homer rammed him off the road
    - "Alcohol has ruined my life. I'm 31 years old!"
    - When he inadvertently set himself on fire after the sun magnified through his glasses
    - Moleman in the Morning radio show
    - Mr. Burns drilling through his head


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 404 ✭✭pampers1


    I think the best episode ever is the one with gool old Frank Grimes (Grimey as Homer called him)

    Frank Grimes: Accidents have doubled every year since he became safety inspector. And meltdowns have tripled! Has he been fired? No. Has he been disciplined? No, no!
    Lenny: Everyone makes mistakes. That's why they put erasers on pencils.
