I would say the character that has given me the most laughs is Ralph Wiggum.

Yeh, he was a tough cut off the list.  It was between him and Dr. Nick...Ralph probably gives me more laughs, but when Dr. Nick gets me, he gets me good.

  • "This is beautiful. What is that? Velvet?"
Homer has to be number 1 on that list.  But I would rank Mr. Burns higher on my personal list, maybe even number 2.

Here are a few others that make me laugh: Kang and Kodos, Groundskeeper Willie, Comic Book Guy, Lenny Leonard and Carl Carlson.  My personal favorites are Fat Tony and Johney Tightlips.

Come on now, no love for my man Sideshow Raheem?



But seriously, I might put Chief Wiggums on the list, or Milhouse, those guys usually give me some good laughs.  And I know they haven't been on the show since Phil Hartman passed, but Troy McClure and Lionel Hutz would probably make my top 10.

My quick top ten in order without too much thought:

Homer
Mr Burns
Moe
Flanders      
Milhouse
Troy McClure
Chief Wiggums
Principle Skinner
Mole Man
Lenny and Carl

Honorable Mention
Lionel Hutz (ok so he didn't make my top 10 afterall), Duffman, Comic Book Guy, Disco Stu, Rainier Wolfcastle

After 18 months with their Bigs, the Littles were: 46% less likely to use illegal drugs, 27% less likely to use alcohol, 52% less likely to skip school, 37% less likely to skip a class

My allll time favorite episode has to be the Frank Grimes episode.  That and when Marge was a cop.

I own every season of the Simpsons that is out on DVD.  I don't even have cable, I just pop in the Simpsons if I need to kill time for 20 minutes.

Something I've always loved about the Simpso - if you walk down the street just saying "Lisa needs braces..." sooner or later someone will yell "DENTAL PLAN!" at you.

I think my all time favorite quote is from Mr. Ralph Wiggum:  "The Doctor said I'd get less nose bleeds if I'd just keep my finger out of there!" that, or Homer's "Butter that bacon!".

Man... I love this show.

Yeah I got most of the seasons too.  I got a portable DVD player and whenever I gotta do work in my garage on my car or motorcycle, I always pop a simpsons, family guy, or the office season in to play in the background.

Don't forget about:

Many a great line, "Tastes like burning," might be my favorite of all time though.
