    Burns all the way:

    "It's the greatest advancement in employee relations since the cat-o-nine-tails"

    "Let the fools have their tartare sauce"

    "Have the Rolling Stones killed"

    Anyone who doesn't know/remeber him should be ashamed :)

    Reoccuring: Ralph

    Occasional: Used to be lionel hutz or troy maclure. Now I'd say it's Gil.

    One off: Hank Scorpio "I didn't even give you my coat!"

    As minor characters go, I love the Cat Lady, she's just surreal!

    I love Nelson:) Outside of the family, he's my overall favourite character. I loved the episode where he took the hormone pills 'my arms are like hams!! Hams!':D ..and the one where Marge befriends him.

    I think the biggest chuckle I got from a once off character and couldn't find a picture of him is a Frank Sinatra guy

    FS- "The Blonde broard got a point..we need a somethin' with a ring a ding ding"

    Lisa - "get your arm off me"

    FS - "On, this kittens got claws".

    And with that he is gone.

    Its from the episode where Bart gets Furious D. Brilliantly random episode.

    with regard to once off characters has to be Hank Scorpio

    regular re-occurring side characters is a bit harder so many to choose from: Willie, Chief Wiggum, Lionel Hutz and Troy McClure are definitely high on my list!

    Once off either Hank Scorpio, Rex Banner or Larry Burns.

    Re-occurring character would be Otto: "They call 'em fingers, but I never see 'em fing! Oh, there they go." Classic!

    Reporter: Champ, do you feel remorse for your crime?
    Drederick TatumOh, yes. Believe me, my god, if I could turn back the clock on my mother's stair-pushing, I would certainly, reconsider it.
    Reporter: Drederick, ah, what do you think of Homer Simpson?
    Drederick Tatum: I think he's a good man. I like him. I got nothing against him, but I'm definitely gonna make orphans of his children.
    Reporter: Uh, you know, they do have a mother, Champ?
    Drederick Tatum: Yes, but I would imagine that she would die of grief.

    Always loved Groundskeeper Willie. A lowly gardener/maintenance man he may be but he clearly has the blood of William Wallace in his veins. Absolute legend!

    One of my favourites was the guy who would freak out at the drop of a hat. He looks a bit different in each episode but was essentially the same character:

    Dunno why people are saying Gils a great character :confused:

    He doesnt even deserved to be mentioned in the same sentence as the great Lionel Hutz (also known as Miguel Sanchez)

    Gil is a pretty good benchmark for when the show started to get shít. A lot of his gags would have gone to Hans Moleman in the old ones.

    Lisa's dentist was a great one-off character!
