It was first broadcast on March 30, 2008.<br /> <br /> == Plot ==<br /> The episode Starts off in [[Bart]]'s bedroom, where a large snake enters the room. The snake is revealed to be a costumed [[Homer]], and [[Lisa]] arrives dressed as [[Angelica Button]], a character from her favorite novel. The two reveal the whole family is entitled to attend the grabbing of the last novel. The family manages to get the book, and while arriving home, they've finished the entire novel, in other words they had Lisa summarise the best parts while not even opening their own copies then throwing them all out the window. Once at home Homer allows them to watch TV. After watching a variety of shows, [[Kent Brockman]] introduces a new commercial for a ballet academy owned by [[Chazz Busby]], a sarcastic man who judges people unfairly. [[Marge]] is inspired, and later reveals to Lisa that she has a whole box and closet of unfulfilled dreams. Marge once took ballet, but had to quit because she lost balance after her boobs kicked in (one grew before the other). Lisa tells Marge to follow through this dream, and Marge agrees. Marge auditions for [[Chazz Busby's Ballet Academy]], and although Busby lets her pass, he remains bitter about Marge's performance.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Homer takes Bart to the basement and introduces him to his secret room, the &quot;jerkytorium&quot;, a room filled with Homer's own stash of beef jerky. The two bond over what they plan on doing with the beef jerky. While dancing, Marge does an impossibly high stretch with her leg, causing it to get stuck. Busby kicks Marge out, insulting her as she goes. An angry Lisa decides to defend Marge, and while berating Busby, he notices Lisa's posture is perfect for a ballerina. He asks if Lisa would join his ballet, although Marge interrupts and says Lisa would be happy to join. However, no matter how hard she practices, Lisa soon turns out to be terrible. While on break, a ballerina asks Lisa if she'd like to smoke, saying it would improve her skills like the rest of them. Horrified, Lisa rejects the cigarette. When the ballerina starts smoking, Lisa inhales a large entity of the cigarette's smoke. When the break is done, Lisa enters the studio and performs better than ever, and deduces that second hand smoke is what makes her excel.<br /> <br /> Homer brings [[Apu]] to his &quot;jerkytorium&quot;, and he and Bart are shocked to discover it is completely empty. After incorrectly blaming Flanders, he discovers that a family of raccoons had made off with his jerky. That night, Lisa hallucinates of a cigarette-smoked shaped older version of her, who attempts to convince her to continue smoking. Saying that the great historical women Lisa admires all smoked. Lisa agrees. Outside her window, Homer and Bart lay a trap to capture the raccoons: a tray loaded with sleeping pills-laced beef jerky. However, it turns out that the plate Homer was eating was the jerky with the sleeping pills. While driving Lisa to ballet practice, Marge, who becomes proud of having a ballerina as a daughter, starts glowing about how she sees herself in Lisa. Lisa soon begins to suspect that Marge is living her dream through her.<br /> <br /> Homer follows one of the raccoons into the family's home under a tree stump, and can't bring himself to attack the family because he sees they are a loving family, and they resemble his own family in both appearance and manner. He soon befriends the family. At the studio, Lisa's dancing falters and she anxiously waits for break, to inhale some smoke. When break does come, she finds out that it's windy outside, so all the smoke begins to blow away. She realizes her only other alternative is to actually smoke a cigarette, and picks one up; right before she smokes it, however, Homer arrives to steal it out of her hand, and subsequently shoots the cigarette. Angry, he decides to go tell Marge, but discovers Marge is so proud and happy of Lisa, he can't bear to destroy her feelings. He does, however, order Lisa to quit cigarettes, and he decides to get Bart to tail her.<br /> <br /> When Bart informs Homer that Lisa is still addicted to smoke, Homer creates a plan involving one of the raccoons. On the night of the big ballet recital, the raccoon breaks into the changing room and steals all the cigarettes. Homer throws the cigarettes into a nearby motel, where an impregnated [[Miss Springfield]] and [[Mayor Quimby]] lie. On stage, all the ballerinas soon begin to freak out, a few losing their tempers. The ballerinas soon go out of control, and Lisa tells the appalled audience that ballet is something America has forced onto students, and quits, prompting Busby to also quit. Marge also learns to not display her dreams through her child, and the family ends happy.<br /> <br /> {{Season 19}}<br /> [[Category:Episodes]]<br /> [[Category:Season 19]]<br /> [[Category:2008]]<br /> [[Category:Lisa episodes]]</div>

The ballerinas soon go out of control, and Lisa tells the appalled audience that ballet is something America has forced onto students, and quits, prompting Busby to also quit.

The snake is revealed to be a costumed [[Homer]], and [[Lisa]] arrives dressed as [[Angelica Button]], a character from her favorite novel. The two reveal the whole family is entitled to attend the grabbing of the last novel.

Marge once took ballet, but had to quit because she lost balance after her boobs kicked in (one grew before the other). Lisa tells Marge to follow through this dream, and Marge agrees.

Busby kicks Marge out, insulting her as she goes. An angry Lisa decides to defend Marge, and while berating Busby, he notices Lisa's posture is perfect for a ballerina. He asks if Lisa would join his ballet, although Marge interrupts and says Lisa would be happy to join. However, no matter how hard she practices, Lisa soon turns out to be terrible. While on break, a ballerina asks Lisa if she'd like to smoke, saying it would improve her skills like the rest of them. Horrified, Lisa rejects the cigarette.

Lisa agrees. Outside her window, Homer and Bart lay a trap to capture the raccoons: a tray loaded with sleeping pills-laced beef jerky. However, it turns out that the plate Homer was eating was the jerky with the sleeping pills.

He asks if Lisa would join his ballet, although Marge interrupts and says Lisa would be happy to join. However, no matter how hard she practices, Lisa soon turns out to be terrible. While on break, a ballerina asks Lisa if she'd like to smoke, saying it would improve her skills like the rest of them. Horrified, Lisa rejects the cigarette.

Lisa agrees. Outside her window, Homer and Bart lay a trap to capture the raccoons: a tray loaded with sleeping pills-laced beef jerky. However, it turns out that the plate Homer was eating was the jerky with the sleeping pills.

Lisa soon begins to suspect that Marge is living her dream through her.<br /> <br /> Homer follows one of the raccoons into the family's home under a tree stump, and can't bring himself to attack the family because he sees they are a loving family, and they resemble his own family in both appearance and manner. He soon befriends the family. At the studio, Lisa's dancing falters and she anxiously waits for break, to inhale some smoke. When break does come, she finds out that it's windy outside, so all the smoke begins to blow away. She realizes her only other alternative is to actually smoke a cigarette, and picks one up; right before she smokes it, however, Homer arrives to steal it out of her hand, and subsequently shoots the cigarette. Angry, he decides to go tell Marge, but discovers Marge is so proud and happy of Lisa, he can't bear to destroy her feelings. He does, however, order Lisa to quit cigarettes, and he decides to get Bart to tail her.<br /> <br /> When Bart informs Homer that Lisa is still addicted to smoke, Homer creates a plan involving one of the raccoons. On the night of the big ballet recital, the raccoon breaks into the changing room and steals all the cigarettes. Homer throws the cigarettes into a nearby motel, where an impregnated [[Miss Springfield]] and [[Mayor Quimby]] lie. On stage, all the ballerinas soon begin to freak out, a few losing their tempers. The ballerinas soon go out of control, and Lisa tells the appalled audience that ballet is something America has forced onto students, and quits, prompting Busby to also quit. Marge also learns to not display her dreams through her child, and the family ends happy.<br /> <br /> {{Season 19}}<br /> [[Category:Episodes]]<br /> [[Category:Season 19]]<br /> [[Category:2008]]<br /> [[Category:Lisa episodes]]</div>

The snake is revealed to be a costumed [[Homer]], and [[Lisa]] arrives dressed as [[Angelica Button]], a character from her favorite novel. The two reveal the whole family is entitled to attend the grabbing of the last novel. The family manages to get the book, and while arriving home, they've finished the entire novel, in other words they had Lisa summarise the best parts while not even opening their own copies then throwing them all out the window. Once at home Homer allows them to watch TV. After watching a variety of shows, [[Kent Brockman]] introduces a new commercial for a ballet academy owned by [[Chazz Busby]], a sarcastic man who judges people unfairly. [[Marge]] is inspired, and later reveals to Lisa that she has a whole box and closet of unfulfilled dreams. Marge once took ballet, but had to quit because she lost balance after her boobs kicked in (one grew before the other). Lisa tells Marge to follow through this dream, and Marge agrees. Marge auditions for [[Chazz Busby's Ballet Academy]], and although Busby lets her pass, he remains bitter about Marge's performance.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Homer takes Bart to the basement and introduces him to his secret room, the &quot;jerkytorium&quot;, a room filled with Homer's own stash of beef jerky. The two bond over what they plan on doing with the beef jerky. While dancing, Marge does an impossibly high stretch with her leg, causing it to get stuck. Busby kicks Marge out, insulting her as she goes. An angry Lisa decides to defend Marge, and while berating Busby, he notices Lisa's posture is perfect for a ballerina. He asks if Lisa would join his ballet, although Marge interrupts and says Lisa would be happy to join. However, no matter how hard she practices, Lisa soon turns out to be terrible. While on break, a ballerina asks Lisa if she'd like to smoke, saying it would improve her skills like the rest of them. Horrified, Lisa rejects the cigarette. When the ballerina starts smoking, Lisa inhales a large entity of the cigarette's smoke. When the break is done, Lisa enters the studio and performs better than ever, and deduces that second hand smoke is what makes her excel.<br /> <br /> Homer brings [[Apu]] to his &quot;jerkytorium&quot;, and he and Bart are shocked to discover it is completely empty. After incorrectly blaming Flanders, he discovers that a family of raccoons had made off with his jerky. That night, Lisa hallucinates of a cigarette-smoked shaped older version of her, who attempts to convince her to continue smoking. Saying that the great historical women Lisa admires all smoked. Lisa agrees. Outside her window, Homer and Bart lay a trap to capture the raccoons: a tray loaded with sleeping pills-laced beef jerky. However, it turns out that the plate Homer was eating was the jerky with the sleeping pills. While driving Lisa to ballet practice, Marge, who becomes proud of having a ballerina as a daughter, starts glowing about how she sees herself in Lisa. Lisa soon begins to suspect that Marge is living her dream through her.<br /> <br /> Homer follows one of the raccoons into the family's home under a tree stump, and can't bring himself to attack the family because he sees they are a loving family, and they resemble his own family in both appearance and manner. He soon befriends the family. At the studio, Lisa's dancing falters and she anxiously waits for break, to inhale some smoke. When break does come, she finds out that it's windy outside, so all the smoke begins to blow away. She realizes her only other alternative is to actually smoke a cigarette, and picks one up; right before she smokes it, however, Homer arrives to steal it out of her hand, and subsequently shoots the cigarette. Angry, he decides to go tell Marge, but discovers Marge is so proud and happy of Lisa, he can't bear to destroy her feelings. He does, however, order Lisa to quit cigarettes, and he decides to get Bart to tail her.<br /> <br /> When Bart informs Homer that Lisa is still addicted to smoke, Homer creates a plan involving one of the raccoons. On the night of the big ballet recital, the raccoon breaks into the changing room and steals all the cigarettes. Homer throws the cigarettes into a nearby motel, where an impregnated [[Miss Springfield]] and [[Mayor Quimby]] lie. On stage, all the ballerinas soon begin to freak out, a few losing their tempers. The ballerinas soon go out of control, and Lisa tells the appalled audience that ballet is something America has forced onto students, and quits, prompting Busby to also quit. Marge also learns to not display her dreams through her child, and the family ends happy.<br /> <br /> {{Season 19}}<br /> [[Category:Episodes]]<br /> [[Category:Season 19]]<br /> [[Category:2008]]<br /> [[Category:Lisa episodes]]</div>

Homer, however, is far too lazy to do so. This prompts an infuriated Marge to make a healthy breakfast consisting entirely of vegetables for Homer the next morning. Marge decides to hire a formerly obese nutritionist named [[Betsy Bidwell]] to help with Homer's food addiction. Betsy tells Homer of a simple trick called &quot;substitution&quot;. Betsy explains to Homer that he substitute his food, with food that could help him lose weight. Betsy tells Homer to begin eating bell peppers. Homer begins eating the bell peppers everywhere including a baseball game and at [[Moe's Tavern]] as a beer smoothie. After Betsy and Marge measure Homer's weight, a shocked Betsy informs Homer that instead of losing weight, he has gained seven pounds. Marge suspects that Homer may have cheated on his diet. While [[Bart Simpson|Bart]] and [[Lisa Simpson|Lisa]] are watching television, Marge discovers a show called ''[[Sneakers]]'', which purports to investigate people suspected of cheating on their partner. Marge decides to call the producers, with the intention of having them stalk Homer and see if he is cheating on his diet. Marge successfully manages to reach Sneakers, and they decide to help her.<br /> <br /> Bart and Lisa decide to tour [[Springfield National Park]]. At the top of a mountain, the two discover [[Martin Prince|Martin]] excavating for arrowheads. While Lisa joins him in excavating, a frustrated Bart decides to play a prank on Martin. Stealing [[Sideshow Mel]]'s bone, Bart digs it into the ground, where Martin arrives thinking it is a real historic bone. Bart tugs on a string connected to the bone, which causes the bone to fly up and knock Martin in the head. A dizzied Martin tumbles over the edge of the cliff, and falls onto a smaller ledge.

Although Bart wants to admit his crime, Lisa, frightened of going to jail for being an accomplice, convinces Bart to deny they were the perpetrators.

Bart begins to panic frantically, thinking someone would investigate.

Marge confirms her suspicions of Homer cheating on his diet, but realizes that the reality show people do not care about their marriage. She quits the show and embraces Homer, stating that she'd &quot;rather have a chubby hubby than a sexy exy.&quot; Bart and Lisa arrive at Martin's greenhouse.

The bar is named after its owner, [[Moe Szyslak]]. It is the only known tavern in Springfield (maybe becuse, like Krusty and Krusty Burger, Moe pays Fat Tony money to make sure that there is no competition), though there is a [[Joe's Tavern|Joe's]] in Shelbyville.<br /> <br /> == Interior ==<br /> The bar was described by [[Julius Hibbert|Dr. Hibbert]]'s daughter as smelling &quot;like tinkle&quot;. The inside of the bar is dank and scant with red and green diamond windows. The bar serves Duff Beer, Henry K. Duff's Private Reserve, Tuborg; &quot;The Beer Of Danish Kings&quot;, and Red Tick Beer, a beer flavored with dogs. It is also shown that they serve a drink to lose the memory, which Homer uses in order to forget that we was going to have a secret party.<br /> The bar may actually be an illegal speakeasy, as the bar's liquor license expired in 1973, was valid only in Rhode Island and was signed by Moe himself (although Moe had intended to get it updated to the current year, the [[Springfield's state|correct state]], and real) &lt;ref&gt;[[Pygmoelian]]&lt;/ref&gt;.[[File:Moe4.jpg|thumb|Inside Moe's Tavern]]<br /> <br /> His bar features a few pool tables (to which [[Barney Gumble]] once &quot;made sweet love&quot; and then &quot;befouled,&quot; in that order), a dartboard, the occasional rat, a love tester machine, a bull-riding machine, a racing washing machine and dryer sold to him by [[Herb Powell]], a cigarette vending machine, and a jukebox. A jar of pickled eggs perpetually sits on the bar counter.<br /> <br /> As female customers are so rare, [[Moe Szyslak|Moe]] uses the women's restroom as an office. Moe claims that there &quot;haven't been any ladies at Moe's since 1979&quot;<br /> <br /> Moe's back room has often been the site of numerous illegal operations. Among these are: smuggling Pandas &lt;ref&gt;[[Cape Feare]]&lt;/ref&gt;, Kidnapping Shamu &lt;ref&gt;[[The Springfield Files]]&lt;/ref&gt;, and running a ''Deer Hunter''-style Russian Roulette game.<br /> <br /> It is also shown that there is a back room in the bar which is apparently Moe's bedroom. It's implied in that same scene that Moe lives in the bar, saying &quot;I bet if I didn't sell booze, they wouldn't even come here&quot;<br /> <br /> Moe's Tavern always closes on Wednesdays, as Moe performs charity work by reading to the homeless at the same refuge where Ned Flanders serves soup.&lt;ref&gt;[[Homer Loves Flanders]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Incarnations ==<br /> <br /> Moe's Tavern has been reinvented a few times over the years. During these times, at least, he had many more customers, including women:<br /> <br /> * The tavern was originally called '''Meaux's Tavern''', and later on,''' Moe's Cavern'''&lt;ref&gt;[[Three Gays of the Condo]]&lt;/ref&gt;.<br /> * Moe renamed his tavern '''Flaming Moe's''' when Homer's cocktail drink became popular.&lt;ref&gt;[[Flaming Moe's]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> [[File:Tavern.gif|thumb|Moe answers a prank call from Bart.]]<br /> * Moe's was briefly converted into a family restaurant called '''Uncle Moe's Family Feedbag''' but it was reverted it when he was unable to tolerate the family atmosphere.&lt;ref&gt;[[Bart Sells His Soul]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * It appeared that Moe has moved to a new location on the Squidport named '''Moe's Brewing Co.''' Homer is amazed that Moe's moved to a fancier place, even though it was actually a long tunnel that lead to the original Moe's. A visitor remarked, &quot;Hey, this isn't faux dive. This is a dive,&quot; to which Moe replies &quot;You're a long way from home, yuppie-boy. I'll start a tab.&quot;&lt;ref&gt;[[My Sister, My Sitter]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * During a brief period of Prohibition in Springfield, Moe's Tavern was converted into a speakeasy. The sign on the front read '''Moe's Pet Shop''', and the bar and booths flipped over to display pet cages whenever federal agents show up to bust the speakeasy.&lt;ref&gt;[[Homer vs. The Eighteenth Amendment]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * Moe transformed his tavern into a nightclub for yuppie hipsters, renaming the bar '''M'''. Homer was upset because the M didn't have Duff Beer, so he opened his own tavern in his garage.&lt;ref&gt;[[Homer the Moe]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * When Homer took a mortgage on his house to save Moe's, [[Marge Simpson|Marge]] partnered up with Moe to revamp the bar as an English pub called '''The Nag &amp; Weasel'''. The pub's sign indicated that Marge is the nag and Moe is the weasel.&lt;ref&gt;[[Mommie Beerest]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * When Homer convinced the town that the Rapture was coming, Moe sold his bar to Japanese businessmen who converted it into a sushi restaurant named '''Tokyo Roe's'''.&lt;ref&gt;[[Thank God It's Doomsday]]&lt;/ref&gt;.<br /> * During the 90's, Moe's Tavern was allegedly turned into a Cigar bar. At one point, after Barney expelled tons of smoke, Moe tried to use the opportunity to steal a fellow patron's watch, but the smoke dissipated before he could successfully steal it. He then tried to make an alibi that he was just &quot;coming on to him&quot;, but the alibi backfired when the patron invites him to his apartment (implying that he was gay). [[File:1_Moe_Szyslak.png|thumb|Moe, the bartender]]<br /> <br /> == Regular customers ==<br /> It appears that Moe's tavern has only six regular patrons, Homer, Barney, Lenny, Carl, [[Sam]] and [[Larry]]. Moe pointed out that due to their frequent habit of drunk-driving, &quot;91% of all traffic accidents in this city are caused by you six guys.&quot; &lt;ref&gt;[[The City of New York vs. Homer Simpson]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> Barney's bar tab was so large that Moe had to send it to NASA to get it calculated. It totaled $14 billion. Initially, it was believed to be $70 billion, but that was revealed to be the cost of the Voyager space craft.<br /> <br /> === Other regulars ===<br /> You may also occasionally see [[Charlie]], one of Homer's colleagues at the nuclear power plant. Moe's is usually the place where Homer takes new found friends to hang out, such as Principal Skinner before his marriage.<br /> <br /> The two barflies usually seen are Sam and Larry. Sam always wears a cap and Larry has a balding head.<br /> <br /> See also - [[Sam]] &amp; [[Larry]]<br /> <br /> == Other Patrons ==<br /> * [[Aerosmith]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Flaming Moe's]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[Stephen Hawking]] &lt;ref&gt;[[They Saved Lisa's Brain]]&lt;/ref&gt;&lt;ref&gt;[[Don't Fear the Roofer]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[U2]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Trash of the Titans]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[wikipedia:Red Hot Chili Peppers|Red Hot Chili Peppers]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Krusty Gets Kancelled]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[wikipedia:Jay Leno|Jay Leno]] &lt;ref&gt;[[The Last Temptation of Krust]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[wikipedia:Wade Boggs|Wade Boggs]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Homer at the Bat]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[wikipedia:Johnny Carson|Johnny Carson]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Krusty Gets Kancelled]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[wikipedia:Joe Frazier|Joe Frazier]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Brother Can You Spare Two Dimes?]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[wikipedia:Jamie Farr|Jamie Farr]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Fear of Flying (Simpsons)|Fear of Flying]]&lt;/ref&gt;&quot; (An autographed photo with the Legend: 'To Moe, the Inspiration for Corporal Klinger...now where's my beer?')<br /> * [[R.E.M (band)|R.E.M]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Homer the Moe]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> *The owner of [[King Toots]]<br /> *A man with glasses that are out of focus<br /> *[[Hugh Jass]] (a man who coincidentally has the same name that Bart uses for a prank call)<br /> *An unnamed person who has a cowlick and easily passes out<br /> *A gay man who was under the impression that Moe's Tavern was a gay bar<br /> *[[Ruth Powers]]<br /> *[[Joey Joe Joe Junior Shabadoo]] &lt;ref&gt;[[The Last Temptation of Homer]]&lt;/ref&gt; whose name Homer uses as an alias. When Moe insults the name, Shabadoo bursting into tears and running out of the bar; Barney calls out sympathetically after him, &quot;Come back, Joey Joe Joe!&quot;)<br /> *A potential patron was [[Guy Incognito]], a man who looked like Homer and talked in a voice similar to his but had a mustache and wore a top hat and tails. Guy wanted to order a drink one time, but Moe thought it was Homer (Homer was temporarily banned from Moe's at the time) in disguise and kicked him out not realizing his error. Homer sees this man lying in the gutter out the front of Moe's and realises he looks just like him but instead of investigating this further, Homer chases after a dog with a puffy tail.<br /> *An unknown character who thinks Homer's name is Bill.<br /> *Barney's dog Shaggy was seen joining the regulars. When Moe commented that he was sick of hearing &quot;shaggy dog stories&quot;, Shaggy left in a huff.<br /> <br /> == Performances ==<br /> A small stage stands at one end and has been host to a few performances<br /> * [[Aerosmith]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Flaming Moe's]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[Red Hot Chili Peppers]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Krusty Gets Kancelled]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[The Be Sharps]] &lt;ref&gt;[[Homer's Barbershop Quartet]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[Krusty the Clown]] (during his &quot;rebel comic&quot; phase)&lt;ref&gt;[[The Last Temptation of Krust]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> == Location, Address and phone number ==<br /> Moe's Tavern is located on Walnut Street, next to [[King Toot's Music Store]]. Across the street is the Moeview Hotel and factory once owned by [[Bart Simpson]].<br /> <br /> The phone number varies from time to time. Mr. Burns once tried to call [[Waylon Smithers|Smithers]] but did not know his phone number. He tried the buttons marked with the letters for Smithers (764-8437(7)) and called Moe's &lt;ref&gt;[[Homer the Smithers]]&lt;/ref&gt;. Bart is asked to call Homer by [[Principal Skinner]], the number visible on the card is WORK: KLondike 5-6832 HOME: KLondike 5-6754 MOE'S TAVERN: KLondike 5-1239, Moe answers the phone and Bart asks for Homer Sexual &lt;ref&gt;[[Principal Charming]]&lt;/ref&gt;. However, in another occasion, Homer phones the bar at 355-1337.&lt;ref&gt;[[Bonfire of the Manatees]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Behind the Laughter==<br /> <br /> Moe's Tavern is based on a real bar called Moe's by Loyola Marymount in Playa Del Rey, CA on Culver Street. The owner of Moe's actually bears a striking resemblance to the Simpson's Moe.<br /> <br /> A bar called Moe's Tavern can be seen opposite the bank in the film ''Dog Day Afternoon''. [[Hank Azaria]] stated that Moe's voice was based on that of Al Pacino's character in the same film.<br /> <br /> On the Middle East Broadcasting Center on the Arab version of the show, where ''The Simpsons'' is known as ''Al Shamshoon'', the characters drink soda at Moe's Tavern because alcoholic beer is forbidden in Islam.<br /> <br /> A DVD featurette on [[The Complete Tenth Season]] features a clip collection of these crank calls from Seasons 1 through 7.<br /> <br /> == Appearances ==<br /> {{Incomplete}}<br /> *{{ep|Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire}}<br /> * {{ep|There's No Disgrace Like Home}}<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> <br /> {{places}}<br /> <br /> [[es:Moe's Tavern]]<br /> [[pt:Moe's]]<br /> [[Category:Bars and Taverns]]<br /> [[Category:Locations]]<br /> [[Category:Springfield]]</div>

He is seen in &quot;Homer the Whopper&quot; --&gt;<br /> |appearance = [[Three Men and a Comic Book]]<br /> |voiced by = [[Hank Azaria]]<br /> }}<br /> <br /> {{Quote|Worst (insert noun) ever!|Comic Book Guys's catchphrase}}<br /> <br /> '''Jeffrey &quot;Jeff&quot; Albertson''', better known as '''Comic Book Guy''', is the overweight, geeky proprietor of the comic book store, [[The Android's Dungeon]]<br /> == Biography ==<br /> Comic Book Guy is very obese, socially incompetent, unshaven, cruel man who is perhaps best known for his sarcastic quips. He holds a master's degree in folklore and mythology (he translated ''The Lord of the Rings'' into Klingon as part of his thesis).&lt;ref&gt;This is a reference to an organization called the Klingon Language Institute who took the time to translate ''Hamlet'' into Klingon after hearing the line &quot;You haven't experienced Shakespeare until you've read him in the original Klingon&quot; in ''Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country''.&lt;/ref&gt; He exhibits geeky behaviour to an extraordinary and deliberately unrealistic degree, and often also makes references to obscure subjects or internet culture. His catchphrase is the declaration ,&quot;Worst... (episode)... ever&quot;. He states that he is a 45 year-old virgin who lives with his mother &lt;ref&gt;[[Mayored to the Mob]]&lt;/ref&gt;. His obesity has been stated on The Simpsons: Hit and Run, where he can be used driving you around in his car, when one of his replies is that he might as well pick you up, since he can't fit into his office chair anymore.<br /> <br /> Appropriate to his name, Comic Book Guy is obsessed with comic books and A science fiction .Comic Book Guy has a bumper sticker that reads &quot;My Other Car Is The Millennium Falcon,&quot; given to him by a Harrison Ford lookalike. The license plate on his AMC Gremlin is NCC-1701, the registry number of ''Star Trek's'' ''USS Enterprise''. The contents of his display case include, among other oddities, a photo of Sean Connery signed by Roger Moore and a very rare ''Mary Worth'' in which she advised a friend to commit suicide. He also owns a T-shirt that says &quot;C:/DOS C:/DOS/RUN RUN/DOS/RUN&quot; (Notice the incorrect usage of the forward slash. DOS directories are listed with a backslash ,so it would be &quot;C:\DOS C:\DOS\RUN RUN\DOS\RUN&quot;). He is a member of the Springfield branch of [[Mensa International|Mensa]], along with [[Seymour Skinner|Principal Skinner]], [[Julius Hibbert|Dr. Hibbert]], [[Lisa Simpson]], [[Professor Frink]], and [[Lindsey Naegle]].<br /> <br /> === Early Life ===<br /> Comic Book Guy lived in his parents basement in the 1980s. He had a dog named Chewbacca (currently deceased). He also went to fat camp.&lt;ref&gt;[[The Simpsons Library of Wisdom|Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === The Android's Dungeon ===<br /> Comic Book Guy is the owner of The [[Android's Dungeon]], a local comic book store. Many of the comics and toys he sells are of very poor-quality, and often sell for very high prices. His store is his sanctuary, where he holds some level of self-esteem, imperiously lording over pre-teen kids, like [[Bart Simpson]] and [[Milhouse Van Houten]], using a heavily sarcastic tone. When he was the target of mockery while trying to return the Ultimate Belt, he sighed, &quot;I must get back to my comic book store, where I ''dispense'' the insults rather than ''absorb'' them&quot;. His store contains a section full of illegal videos (which include Mr. Rogers drunk, ''Alien Autopsy'', ''Illegal Alien Autopsy'', a top secret American nuclear war strategy session, a &quot;good version&quot; of ''The Godfather Part III'', [[Kent Brockman]] picking his nose, and [[Ned Flanders]] in a police informant video, wherein he claims that [[Homer Jay Simpson|Homer]] released a radioactive ape in his house [Although, according to Bart, Homer only let the Ape into the house because the Ape tricked Homer, and&amp;nbsp;not out of malicious intent]. He later was arrested and had his store shut down temporarily because of this.). He once had to give up the Ultimate Belt (which he won as a door prize at a Star Trek Convention) because, as he pointed out, &quot;the average Trekker has no use for a medium-sized belt&quot;.<br /> [[File:Androidsdungeon.jpg|thumb|right|Comic Book Guy's store]]<br /> ==== Similar stores ====<br /> In North Haverbrook there is a comic book shop named &quot;Mylar Baggins&quot; and the proprietor looks very similar to Comic Book Guy with the exception that his skin and hair are slightly darker. He also has a deep-rooted rivalry with a store similar to his: &quot;Frodo's of Shelbyville&quot;. These shops could have had the same owner, as both rival store names refer to The Lord of the Rings character Frodo Baggins. During the Trappuccino crisis, Comic Book Guy says that his obsessive comic book collecting is a &quot;life well spent&quot;.&lt;ref&gt;[[The Simpsons Movie]]&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> <br /> === Brief Fame ===<br /> In Homer the Whopper, Comic Book Guy created the comic book series Everyman. He apparently created 278 issues, including the controversial issue with the death of Marmaduke. However, he was reluctant to self-publish them initially because he feared that he'd be mocked by the internet community for his comics. While trying to exhasperate Comic Book Guy by feigning complete ignorance on the history of Spiderman, Bart and Milhouse stumbled upon a draft of an issue of Everyman that he was working on. Comic Book Guy then learned that Bart and Milhouse actually liked the comic, and after a bit of convincing, he decided to self-publish. The comic's popularity started to soar as a result, with a movie project starting for the Summer Market. Some movie executives requested to make Everyman into a movie. Comic Book Guy is reluctant to allow them to work with the movie, especially as the same movie industry apparently ruined the Stratego movie for him. He eventually relents, but only under the condition that he picks the person who will portray Everyman. When they refused that condition, he opened the door to the store, implying that he wanted them to leave, until they agreed to that condition, commenting that being a Hollywood Producer is the closest thing to a physical sport that he could ever do. He later explains that he wants a &quot;complete loser&quot; to portray Everyman. He then picks Homer Simpson for the part, after the latter accidentally walked into the store, not realizing it was closed for auditioning. He then spent his time talking to people at his new, hollywood-style house about what it is like to be a producer, and adopting a Cambodian Orphan named Prius. However, when the movie was going overbudget and Homer ended up gaining an eating disorder due to his fitness coach abandoning him for Turtle (to the extent that he couldn't even get out of his trailer without it being sawed off), he tried to end production of the film, but ended up being thrown out by security into a dumpster with disgraced executives. He later ended up sacrificing any chance at another Everyman movie being made by voicing his honest opinion that the Everyman movie was the worst movie ever. It is unknown if he still worked on his comics after this.<br /> <br /> === Relationships ===<br /> Comic Book Guy was once married—in an online role-playing game. He and his Internet wife contemplated having children, but that would have severely drained his power crystals. He was shown paired with a blond woman (asking if she enjoyed comic books) during a mass-marriage that occurred when a cult took over Springfield, and presumably the two were wed in the mass ceremony &lt;ref&gt;[[The Joy of Sect]]&lt;/ref&gt;. While part of an intellectual [[wiktionary:junta|junta]] that [[They Saved Lisa's Brain|briefly ran Springfield]], he proposed plans to limit breeding to once every seven years (a reference to the Vulcan blood fever of mating, called Pon Farr), commenting that this would mean much less breeding for most, but for him, &quot;much, much more&quot;. He was a virgin well into his forties when he became romantically involved with [[Principal Skinner]]'s mother [[Agnes Skinner|Agnes]]. ([[Clancy Wiggum|Chief Wiggum]] was notably repulsed when he and his officers stumbled upon the couple &quot;in the act&quot;.) He later dated [[Edna Krabappel]] and was shown with the superman logo tattooed on his upper right buttock.<br /> <br /> == Non-Canon Appearances ==<br /> {{Noncanon}}<br /> ===The Simpsons Game===<br /> Comic Book Guy appears throughout the entire game to point out various videogame cliches that the player can unlock by performing certain actions. He also appears as one of the contestants in the Duff Ultimate Eating Challenge in the level [[Around the World in 80 Bites]], and in the form of a gang of sumo wrestlers in [[Big Super Happy Fun Fun Game]].<br /> <br /> == Behind the Laughter ==<br /> Comic Book Guy was partly inspired by a clerk at the Los Angeles Amok book shop who often &quot;[sat] on the high stool, kind of lording over the store with that supercilious attitude and eating behind the counter a big Styrofoam containerful of fried clams with a lot of tartare sauce.&quot; [[Matt Groening]] noted that: &quot;I can't tell you how many times people have come up to me and said, 'I know who you based that comic book guy on. It's that comic-book guy right down the block.' And I have to tell them, &quot;No, it's ''every'' comic-bookstore guy in America.&quot;<br /> Hank Azaria based Comic Book Guy's voice on a student who went by the name &quot;F&quot;, and lived in the room next door at his college. Azaria also &quot;loves that the character is an adult who argues with kids as if they're his peers.&quot;<br /> <br /> A long-running gag on the show was never to reveal the character's name, with other characters referring to him as &quot;Comic Book Guy&quot;. Finally, in the February 6, 2005 episode, &quot;[[Homer and Ned's Hail Mary Pass]],&quot; Comic Book Guy nonchalantly told [[Ned Flanders]], &quot;My name is Jeff Albertson, but everyone calls me 'Comic Book Guy'.&quot; [[Showrunner]] [[Al Jean]] remarked, &quot;That was specifically done to make people really mad. We just tried to pick a generic name. It was also the Super Bowl show, so we did it so the most people possible would see it.&quot; Groening stated that he had originally intended him to be called Louis Lane and be &quot;obsessed and tormented by&quot; Lois Lane, but was out of the room when the writers named him.<br /> [[File:Comic_book_guy_book.jpg|thumb|Comic Book Guy's Book of Pop Culture]]<br /> The comic book guy has also been seen in quite a few episodes but he has had very few episodes where he is a major character. He is rarely seen outside The Android's Dungeon store and most of his interactions are with [[Bart Simpson]]. The comic book guy wasn't seen very often early in the series of the show and has not been seen very much in the 19th season.<br /> <br /> === Merchandising ===<br /> Even though Comic Book Guy is just a recurring character, he still has some merchandise such as, Comic Books Guy's Book of Pop Culture. He also appears on the cover of the twelfth season DVD.<br /> <br /> == Appearances ==<br /> {{Incomplete}}<br /> {{scroll|<br /> *{{ep|Three Men and a Comic Book}}<br /> *{{ep|I Married Marge}}<br /> *{{ep|Radio Bart}}<br /> *{{ep|Lisa the Greek}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer Alone}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer at the Bat}}<br /> *{{ep|Kamp Krusty}}<br /> *{{ep|A Streetcar Named Marge}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer the Heretic}}<br /> *{{ep|Lisa the Beauty Queen}}<br /> *{{THOH|Treehouse of Horror III}}<br /> *{{ep|Itchy and Scratchy: The Movie}}<br /> *{{ep|Marge Gets a Job}}<br /> *{{ep|New Kid on the Block}}<br /> *{{ep|Homer's Triple Bypass}}<br /> *{{ep|Selma's Choice}}<br /> *{{ep|Brother from the Same Planet}}<br /> *{{ep|I Love Lisa}}<br /> *{{ep|So It's Come to This: A Simpsons Clip Show}}<br /> *{{ep|The Front}}<br /> *{{ep|Whacking Day}}<br /> *{{ep|Marge in Chains}}<br /> *{{Game|The Simpsons Game}}<br /> }}<br /> <br /> == References ==<br /> {{Reflist}}<br /> <br /> {{Simpsons characters}}<br /> [[es:Jeff Albertson]]<br /> [[pt:Jeff Albertson]]<br /> [[Category:Characters]]<br /> [[Category:Characters voiced by Hank Azaria]]<br /> [[Category:Recurring characters]]<br /> [[Category:Incomplete]]<br /> [[Category:Adults]]<br /> [[Category:Nameless characters]]</div>
