== Biography ==
[[File:Patty and Selma Every Simpsons Ever.jpg|thumb|left|250px]]
Despite the similarities between her and [[Selma]], Patty has been shown to be more jaded than her sister, particularly towards relationships. Marge once said Patty chose a life of celibacy, but Selma had it thrust upon her. Patty's decision to not have relationships has been implied to be due to her then-closeted sexuality. She is more vicious to Homer than Selma is, and unlike Selma, who experiences brief moments of kindness to Homer, Patty has no pity for Homer's well-being. Two exceptions occurred, however. The first was when Patty came out of the closet as a lesbian, sucked up her pride and asked Homer (legally allowed to perform marriages) to perform the ceremony.<ref name="There's Something About Marrying"/> The second was when both Homer and Patty were disgusted Selma got into a relationship with Homer's father Abe, and they decided to work together to break them up.<ref name="Rome-Old and Juli-Eh">"[[Rome-Old and Juli-Eh]]"</ref>

=== Relationships ===
Patty came out of the closet as a lesbian (She exclaims "you could see it from space!"),<ref name="There's Something About Marrying"/> and hints of her sexual orientation have been dropped many times; as she is seen coming out of a burlesque house.<ref name="Bart After Dark">"[[Bart After Dark]]"</ref> She is also seen saying "There goes the last lingering thread of my heterosexuality", when Homer runs past her, naked and screaming,<ref name="Treehouse of Horror III">"[[Treehouse of Horror III]]"</ref> and hiding in a closet with [[Smithers]] on a parade float in a gay pride parade where the two of them chanted, "We're gay! We're glad! But don't tell Mom and Dad!" When Homer heard about Patty's coming out, he sarcastically exclaimed "Patty's gay? Here's another bomb. I like beer!"<ref>"[[Jaws Wired Shut]]"</ref>

=== Seymour Skinner ===
Patty once dated [[Seymour Skinner]] after he was brought home by [[Homer]]. He is initially intended to date [[Selma]], but he fell for Patty instead. Skinner planned to propose to Patty, but she refused, preferring to stay with Selma, on a date with [[Barney Gumble|Barney]]. It is unknown why she dated Skinner, often showing unjoyful facial expressions throughout their relationship, though it could be she was formerly bi-sexual, or possibly because she was a closet lesbian who was just trying to blend in with society.

=== Others ===
After Patty comes out of the closet, Marge is hurt that Patty hid her sexuality for years (though there were obvious signs), but learns to respect her sister.<ref name="There's Something About Marrying"/> Patty wooed a tenured professor of Yale University away from her husband.<ref name="Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife">"[[Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife]]"</ref> It is shown she is attracted to [[Edna Krabappel]],<ref name="Rome-Old and Juli-Eh"/> Edna once "experimented" with Patty.<ref>"[[The Ned-liest Catch]]"</ref> Selma says "I can't face prison" and Patty replies "I can."<ref>"[[Kiss Kiss Bang Bangalore]]"</ref> Long before coming out, Patty dated Principal Skinner. She refused to marry him, claiming she was too devoted to Selma as a sister to leave her alone. However, she did consider Principal Skinner a gentleman and seemed to take it hard she could not marry him, ending their relationship with the words "Good night, sweet principal." <ref>"[[Principal Charming]]"</ref> In public, Patty would share [[Selma]]'s sexual fixation on MacGyver for many years, although this aspect of her personality was phased out in later years; after she came out, it would appear that she was only going along with Selma's feelings for MacGyver. Rarely, hints of Patty being a closet lesbian were also shown when she claimed "there goes the last lingering thread of my heterosexuality" after she saw Homer run through the kitchen naked<ref name="Treehouse of Horror III"/> and also when she visited a burlesque house.<ref name="Bart After Dark"/>

Patty's only notable relationship with a woman, however, was with [[Leslie Swisher|Veronica]], a professional golfer. However, it was later discovered by Marge and revealed during Patty's wedding Veronica was in truth a man.<ref name="There's Something About Marrying"/> She did start a relationship with [[Verity Heathbar]] but it is unknown what happened to this.<ref name="Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife"/>

== Personality ==
[[File:Patty speaks Parseltongue.png|thumb|250px|Patty speaking Parseltongue.]]
Both twin sisters tend to be cynical and are noted for their addiction to tobacco smoking. They have a strong, mutual (and reciprocated) dislike for their brother-in-law. She (along with her sister) was born before Homer and Marge, but their birthdate has not been given. It is presumed they are 41.<ref>"[[Black Widower]]"</ref>

Unlike Homer, who usually makes a perfunctory (if not particularly sincere or committed) effort to be polite to his sisters-in-law out of respect for his wife, Patty and Selma have no hesitation in treating Homer with open rudeness and contempt. There were several instances where they did not seem to care when Homer faced a life-threatening situation. For instance, when Marge rushes to the hospital after receiving a telephone call Homer suffered a heart attack at work, Patty and Selma (instead of going to the hospital and comforting Marge in her time of need) remain seated at the kitchen table, continuing their activity of cutting coupons, gasping in amazement at a five cent discount and behaving as though nothing was wrong.<ref>"[[Homer's Triple Bypass]]"</ref> They later attempt to set up Marge with a (rather sleazy) friend as a replacement for Homer, regardless of the fact Homer was still very much alive. Her bad traits have not gone unnoticed by the populace of Springfield and even their family, her mother even stated "[they're] a sort of evil", having raised them her whole life.

When Homer fakes his death, and Patty and Selma show up holding a tombstone inscribed with "Homer J. Simpson. We are richer for having lost him." This gift as well as the fact they been saving for this since Marge's wedding causes her to angrily throw them out.<ref>"[[Mother Simpson]]"</ref>

Patty's favorite brand of cigarettes is identified as "Lady Laramie 100s", and her habit started "before they were even born". The sisters share an apartment at the Spinster Arms apartment complex and work at the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV). Usually sticklers for rules, they have, on occasion, acted unprofessionally in the course of their jobs, usually when Homer is involved. They commonly punish and ignore applicants, forcing them to stand in endlessly long lines while they do other things. They once allowed [[Otto]] to regain his driver's license during Otto's brief tenancy with the Simpson family due to their mutual dislike for Homer.<ref>"[[The Otto Show]]"</ref>

Once, when Homer had to apply for a chauffeur's license to become a chauffeur so he could pay off a debt he owed them, they purposely failed him to show how much of a loser he was. On this occasion, however, Homer had the last laugh; saving their jobs by pretending their cigarettes were his when they were caught smoking on the job by their superior. Homer forced them to wipe the debt clean to repay the favor, thus negating his need to earn a chauffeur's license and removing the power they had of Homer.<ref name="Homer vs. Patty and Selma">"[[Homer vs. Patty and Selma]]"</ref>

Like her twin sister Selma, Patty is an avid (and sometimes maniacal) fan of the 1980s TV series ''[[MacGyver]]''. Regardless of her orientation, she also seems to be erotically aroused by the show and the character, euphemistically needing a cigarette after each viewing of the show. [[Jay Sherman]] once tells Patty and Selma MacGyver is gay;<ref>"[[A Star Is Burns]]"</ref> they respond by suspending him from the Simpson home gutter by his underwear. When [[Richard Dean Anderson]] tells them he hated playing MacGyver, they kidnap him but eventually grow tired of him and get him to leave.

Patty and Selma drive a 1973 or 1974 {{W|Volkswagen type 181|VW Thing}}.

Patty is also known to be a major enthusiast of fiction books, "enough to choke a hippogriff", and helps write one - ''[[The Troll Twins of Underbridge Academy]]''. She is fluent in "every imaginary language, from {{W|Dothraki language|Dothraki}}, to {{W|Magic in Harry Potter#Parseltongue|Parseltongue}}".<ref>"[[The Book Job]]"</ref>

=== Future ===
In the future, Patty gets a fluffy tail, because of plastic surgery. Patty and Selma still live together and are apparently both still single, as hinted by Selma threatening to stuff [[Edna Krabappel]]'s hat down her throat if she catches the bouquet at "[[Lisa's Wedding]]". It is presumed they both die early, as they are both heavy smokers.

=== Bart vs. the World ===
Although Patty does not make an appearance in the game ''[[Bart vs. the World]]'', she is mentioned in the question round. Question: "What does Patty do for a living with her sister Selma?" A: Nothing, she is unemployed. B: They work at the Department of Motor Vehicles. {correct answer}. C: They are co-owners of a beauty salon.

=== ''The Simpsons Game'' ===
Patty and Selma appear in the level [[NeverQuest]] in the form of a two-headed dragon who attacks the Hobbit-like forms of [[Rod Flanders]], [[Todd Flanders]], and [[Ralph Wiggum]]. They also appear earlier on in [[Mob Rules]] as people Marge can use to protest the sales of the ''Grand Theft Scratchy'' video game to minors.

=== The Simpsons: Tapped Out ===
{{TranscludeSection|The Simpsons: Tapped Out characters/Bouvier Family|Patty}}

== The Bouviers and the Simpsons ==
As children, Patty and Selma were apparently domineering towards Marge and ridiculed her ambition of becoming an astronaut, as well as stuffing her in her dollhouse when she told them "no" which resulted in her having difficulty with telling anyone no. Their relationship seems to have improved over the years. As adults, the Bouvier twins have a friendly relationship with their sister and frequently visit the Simpsons. They seem relatively fond of their nieces and nephew, but seem to like them more when they were younger: ''"The older they get, the cuter they ain't."'' They, on occasion, watched the kids when their parents were out of town. However, Bart and Lisa would rather not be around when their aunts visit. Their idea of bonding with Lisa includes tutoring her in the belief men are pigs, using Homer as the prime example.

Their relationship with Homer remains one of mutual dislike (although Selma gradually grows to become more tolerant towards Homer and often experiences brief moments of kindness) which involves a continuous exchange of insults from day one. They unfavorably compare their brother-in-law to a caveman, suggesting him capable of trading Maggie for beer and a nudie magazine.

Selma and Patty occasionally expressed their common hope Marge will eventually divorce Homer. They are often quick in pointing out his attempts at infidelity, and unsuccessfully offered to help Marge find a replacement for Homer (although Selma eventually gave in and helped Marge find Homer after seeing how truly unhappy she was). The twins once went so far as to have a billboard built trying to convince voters to have Homer kicked out of Springfield.<ref>"[[Three Gays of the Condo]]"</ref>

Their dislike towards Homer even led to push Homer off a bridge,<ref>"[[Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind]]"</ref> although they halfheartedly claim they did this in order to get him to his surprise party, conveniently on a boat passing under the bridge at the time.

Homer also openly calls them ugly. One such incident is when Homer sees them working out and calls the sight nauseating. He once said he was blindfolded and "two sobbing trolls" threw him on the lawn.<ref>"[[Wedding for Disaster]]"</ref> Homer also called them "Penis curling she devils" during a party Marge threw. Homer is known to show little care to what happens to Patty and Selma, except if it happens to Marge it upsets her, like<ref>"[[Treehouse of Horror XIV]]"</ref> when the reaper killed Patty with no remorse, and when Patty and Selma foiled Homer to get his license, he smoked their cigarettes to save them from getting fired, but only did it because Marge was upset.<ref name="Homer vs. Patty and Selma"/>

== Behind the Laughter ==
=== Character ===
Series creator [[Matt Groening]] said he suggested Kavner voice Patty and Selma as characters who "suck the life out of everything...." [[Al Jean]] said Kavner makes Patty's voice more masculine and a lower register, while Selma's voice is a little sweeter.

=== Creation ===
Groening also said he named the Simpsons after his own parents and two younger sisters; he has an older sister named Patty who is an art dealer.

"'''Itchy & Scratchy: The Movie'''" is the sixth episode of [[Season 4|broadcast season 4]] of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' and the sixty-fifth episode overall. It originally aired on November 3, [[1992]]. The episode was written by [[John Swartzwelder]] and directed by [[Rich Moore]]. It guest stars an uncredited [[Neil Armstrong]] as {{Ch|Neil Armstrong|himself}} through archived audio of the lunar landing.

== Synopsis ==
{{Synopsis|[[Bart]]'s constant misbehavior is even worse than usual. [[Homer]] and [[Marge]] come up with the ultimate punishment: they ban him from going to see the newly released [[The Itchy & Scratchy Movie|Itchy & Scratchy Movie]].}}

== Plot ==
[[Homer]] and [[Marge]] go to the kids school for Parent-Teacher night. Although [[Lisa]] is given a good review by [[Miss Hoover]], [[Mrs. Krabappel]] is appalled at [[Bart Simpson|Bart's]] bad behavior and forces Marge to write lines on the blackboard. On the car ride home, Marge becomes concerned about Bart's attitude and how Homer rarely punishes him. When they get home, they discover Bart has broken [[Grampa]]'s dentures and send him to bed without supper. Bart decides to change his ways until Homer sneaks him some dinner and Bart promises to be good. The next day, Lisa learns about the upcoming [[Itchy and Scratchy]] movie and she and Bart immediately get tickets.

Later, Marge and Lisa go shopping, during which Bart causes trouble at home but tricks Homer into not punishing him. When the girls return home, Marge learns of what's happened and orders Homer to punish Bart the next time he misbehaves. When Bart is asked to watch [[Maggie]] and doesn't (leading her to take the family car on a joyride and crash into a prison, freeing several convicts), Homer angrily punishes him by tearing up his Itchy and Scratchy movie ticket, forbidding him from seeing the movie for life. Bart suggests a different punishment such as a spanking, but Homer refuses. Bart becomes depressed that he can't see the movie, as everyone around him raves about it. After two months, Marge and Lisa beg Homer to let Bart see the movie due to Bart still being upset. Marge feels the punishment has made Bart learn his lesson, but Homer still refuses to let Bart go as he decides to extend the punishment. Bart even sneaks over to the Aztec Theater to buy a ticket, but finds that Homer has already instructed the theater staff not to sell any tickets to him, due to the punishment he has made.

Eight months (and 9 Academy Awards) later, the movie officially leaves the theatres. Bart sadly admits that Homer has won, but Homer explains they both won, and that, as a result of his punishment, Bart is doubtless headed for a better life.

{{Noncanon}}
The episode then flashes forward to forty years in the future, where Bart (now Chief Justice of the Supreme Court) and Homer walk down a street, and see that a theater has re-released "The Itchy & Scratchy Movie." Homer explains that he feels Bart has learned his lesson, and the two enter the theatre and watch the movie happily together, although Homer becomes confused about Itchy.

'''Abigail Simpson''' was an ancestor of the [[Simpson family]]

== History ==
[[Lisa]] asked [[Grampa]] if there were any nice ancestors, and he mentioned Abigail and how she was known as "the [[Pittsburgh]] Poisoner." A picture of Abigail was also on the table, having been taken from a school yearbook. She appeared to have been part of Mrs. Gragg's class in third grade.

== Behind the Laughter ==
Abigail's appearance was drawn from [[Pepita Bernstein]], who appeared in ''[[The Simpsons Uncensored Family Album]]'' and was shown to be a distant relative of [[Mr. Burns]], rather than the Simpson family.

'''Marjorie "Marge" Bouvier Simpson''' (née '''Bouvier'''; born March 19<ref name="Exit Through the Kwik-E-Mart">"[[Exit Through the Kwik-E-Mart]]"</ref>) is the happy homemaker and full-time mom of the [[Simpson family]]. With her husband [[Homer]], she has three children: [[Bart]], [[Lisa]], and [[Maggie Simpson]]. Marge is the moralistic force in her family and often provides a grounding voice in the midst of her family's antics by trying to maintain order in the Simpson household. Aside from her duties at home, Marge flirted briefly with a number of careers ranging from police officer to anti-violence activist.

== Biography ==
[[File:Marge Every Simpsons Ever.png|thumb|left|250px]]
[[File:Marge mopping.png|thumb|left|Artwork of Marge from [[season 24]]]]
Marge Bouvier was born on March 19, She is the third born child of the Bouvier family. Growing up her parents called her "Margie." She has a pair of sisters, the joyless twins, [[Patty]] and [[Selma]], both of whom vocally disapprove of Homer.

Marge went on to attend [[Springfield High School]], and in her final year met [[Homer Simpson]]. She was at first wary of Homer, but agreed to go to the prom with him, although she ended up going with [[Artie Ziff]]. However, she regrets going with him because he tried to have sex with her afterwards. Artie takes her home and later on she picks up Homer, walking home, in her car. Marge tells him how much she regretted going to the prom with Artie instead of him, causing Homer to somewhat repair the strap of her dress with the corsage he got her. After that decision, her sisters showed their discontent towards him and ultimately think he was just wrong for her. However, Selma does show she's willing to make a sincere attempt to like Homer for Marge's sake, causing him to have a higher opinion of her. Whereas, Patty never attempted to try and is always on Marge's case to leave Homer, thus it's why she and Homer hate each other.

After the two started dating for several years, Marge discovered she was pregnant with Bart, and she and Homer were married in a small wedding chapel across the state line. Lisa was born soon after, and the couple bought their first house.

She used to leave her children playing at [[Toddlin' Town]] while spending time with other moms, a group she calls [[The Cool Moms]]. They all lost contact to each other, but after many years they re-encountered.<ref>"[[Moms I'd Like to Forget]]"</ref>

Marge is the mother of the [[Simpson family]], who spends most her time doing housework, caring for [[Maggie]], being supportive of and indulging [[Lisa]] and either disciplining [[Bart]] or protecting him from Homer's wrath. Marge is the only member of the family who encourages church attendance. She also appears to have significant athletic ability. She is bilingual, being fully fluent in French.

Despite these tendencies Marge had her fair share of wild escapades throughout the show's history. She was once a [[Springfield Police|police officer]] in [[Springfield]],<ref name="Connection">"[[The Springfield Connection]]"</ref> took [[Dr. Zweig|therapy]] for [[Springfield Airport|flight]] fear,<ref>"[[Fear of Flying]]"</ref> was jailed for [[Kwik-E-Mart|shoplifting]],<ref name="Chains">"[[Marge in Chains]]"</ref> became a gambling addict,<ref>"[[$pringfield (Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)]]"</ref> showed alcoholic tendencies,<ref>"[[Co-Dependent's Day]]"</ref> was an unwilling participant in a cross-country police chase,<ref>"[[Marge on the Lam]]"</ref> overdosed on steroids,<ref name="The Strong Arms of the Ma">"[[The Strong Arms of the Ma]]"</ref> cheated in a cooking competition<ref name="Oven">"[[All's Fair in Oven War]]"</ref> and developed amnesia.<ref>"[[Regarding Margie]]"</ref>

== Character ==
[[File:Margefolder.png|thumbnail|left|Marge's character folder in the Hall of Records on The Simpsons website.]]
=== Personality ===
Marge is a foil to her reckless and impulsive husband. Nevertheless, she is a good wife to Homer and a caring mother to her children. Having high morals and a tendency to be a 'wet blanket' as Homer puts it. She dislikes and tries to avoid taking any sort of risk, can be fearful of new things and set her life to a routine to the point she actually wore a groove into the carpet going from the kitchen to the bedroom and the basement from her constant housework. She tends to consider anything that isn't completely plain to be amazing or exotic, even if they're not all that special. Such as deviled ham opposed to normal ham and buttered noodles opposed to unbuttered noodles. She has also been depicted as a killjoy and attempt to stop things other characters otherwise find fun. She always believes she has a good reason for doing so even if it's only her who has a problem. She once [[Itchy and Scratchy]] banned because Maggie injured Homer after imitating a scene from the cartoon.<ref>"[[Itchy & Scratchy & Marge]]"</ref> She tried to demolish a burlesque house even though it hurt no one and no one else wanted it destroyed,<ref>"[[Bart After Dark]]"</ref> and she outright says if something isn't to her taste, no one else should be allowed to enjoy it.<ref>"[[The Great Wife Hope]]"</ref> Homer sums up his wife when he tells her: "If it was up to [Marge], all we'd ever do is work and go to church."

=== Physical Appearance ===
Marge has tall blue hair in a tall {{W|beehive hairstyle}} and usually wears a tube-style green dress, orange flats, and a red pearl necklace. The pearl necklace is a Bouvier family heirloom and she is seen to have a big drawer full of them.<ref>"[[Homer the Vigilante]]"</ref> [[Lisa]] also wears a pearl necklace, but with white pearls. Doctor Hibbert revealed she has webbed feet.<ref name="Chains"/> She remarked she used to have a "perfect 26-26-26" figure.<ref>"[[Husbands and Knives]]"</ref>

==== Hair ====
[[File:Marge hair down.png|thumb|Marge's hair]]
As a teen, Marge had waist length hair she always wore down, but got the idea to wear it in her trademark beehive for senior prom;<ref>"[[The Way We Was]]"</ref> This is sometimes contradicted by recent flashbacks showing Marge as a child, where she is portrayed with her hair worn tall. Her hair is thick enough for her to keep objects like the family savings in it.<ref>"[[Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire]]"</ref> Her hair is once shown close to her knees, consistent with the logic a lot of hair would be needed to create her tall beehive.<ref>"[[Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious]]"</ref> It was revealed by Homer Marge dyes her hair with blue dye #56, stating ''"She's been gray as a mule since she was seventeen."'' <ref>"[[Secrets of a Successful Marriage]]"</ref> Because of her unusually large hairstyle, her height is reported to be 8'6", as noted by Apu.<ref name="Chains"/> Her hair was blue before she met Homer and was brunette at one time due to Marge ironing a piece of her hair for a long time.<ref>"[[The Way We Weren't]]"</ref>

=== Political Views ===
Politically, Marge generally aligns with the Democratic Party. She once mentions she voted for Jimmy Carter ("twice" according to [[Lisa]]),supported the candidacy of their state's progressive governor [[Mary Bailey]], and also claimed to have been extremely depressed when Lyndon B. Johnson died. She, however, appears to be a Conservative Democrat, unlike the Left-Winged Lisa.

=== Talents ===
Marge is a very talented painter. When she was a teenager she had an intense crush on [[Ringo Starr]] and painted a large number of portraits of him. She also wrote to him, but only received a reply 25 years later. After Homer discovered her old paintings, Lisa encouraged Marge to enroll in an art contest where her portrait of a drunk Homer asleep on the couch won a local art competition. She was hired by [[Mr. Burns]] to do a portrait of him. After many attempts, she almost gave up until a belated response from [[Ringo Starr]], (stating she had talent), inspired her to continue. The resulting portrait won even Mr. Burns' praise, a massive feat in itself, and was placed at the [[Springfield Art Museum]]s Burn's Wing.<ref>"[[Brush with Greatness]]"</ref>

Marge is also a very talented cook. She once bought a pretzel business, which flourished with the aid of the [[Springfield Mafia|mafia]].<ref name="The Twisted World of Marge Simpson">"[[The Twisted World of Marge Simpson]]"</ref> She entered various cooking challenges, although circumstances such as vengeful competitors and overheated ovens cause her to lose and once, sabotage other competitors. Marge says she feeds the family on twelve dollars a week, using sawdust to pad Homer's food.<ref name="Oven"/> Generally she is regarded as a very good cook, despite the unusual fact she knows of fewer than eight spices and apparently constructs very bad ice cream sundaes. She is especially renowned for her pork chops, Homer's favorite dish. She once worked in [[Au Naturel]], an erotic bakery in [[Springfield]].<ref name="Pies">"[[Sex, Pies and Idiot Scrapes]]"</ref>

=== Jobs ===
Marge had many jobs, most of which lasted a short period of time, these include:
*{{W|Carhop}} at [[Berger's Burgers]]<ref>"[[Homer's Odyssey]]"</ref><ref>"[[I Married Marge]]"</ref>
*Pretzel vendor<ref name="The Twisted World of Marge Simpson"/>
*4th grade schoolteacher both homeschooling<ref>"[[Whacking Day]]"</ref> and as a strikebreaker<ref>"[[The PTA Disbands]]"</ref>
*[[Springfield Police|Policewoman]]<ref name="Connection"/>
*Trade Show Model <ref>"[[Large Marge]]"</ref>
*Bodybuilder<ref name="The Strong Arms of the Ma"/>
*Real estate agent for [[Red Blazer Realty]]<ref>"[[Realty Bites]]"</ref>
*[[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant|Power plant]] employee<ref>"[[Marge Gets a Job]]"</ref>
*Baker for an Erotic Bakery <ref name="Pies"/>

=== Future ===
In the future, Marge leaves Homer after he blew the family savings on an underwater home. She dates [[Krusty the Clown]]. Homer tries to win Marge's love back by beating him up, and is beaten up himself. Marge gets back together with Homer.<ref>"[[Future-Drama]]"</ref>
=== Treehouse of Horror ===
In "[[Treehouse of Horror VII]]" segment "The Thing and I", it is known Marge gave birth to Siamese twins: Bart and [[Hugo Simpson|Hugo]]. Hugo was thought evil, so he was kept in the house's attic. Hugo attempts to sew him and Bart back together, but he is stopped by Doctor Hibbert. They discover Bart's scar is on the other side, so he is the evil twin after all and is kept in the attic instead, while Hugo has dinner with his family.

== Behind the Laughter ==
=== Creation ===
[[File:MG01frame10.png|thumb|The first appearances of Marge and Lisa Simpson in "[[Good Night]]", a short from ''[[The Tracey Ullman Show]]''.]]
[[Matt Groening]] first conceived the Simpson family in the lobby of [[James L. Brooks]]' office. He had been called in to pitch a series of animated shorts, and intended to present his ''Life in Hell'' series. When he realized animating ''Life in Hell'' would require him to rescind publication rights for his life's work, Groening decided to go in another direction. He hurriedly sketched out his version of a dysfunctional family, and named the characters after his own own family, with his mother's first name being Marge (short for Margaret). Marge made her debut with the rest of the Simpsons clan on 19 April 1987 in the [[The Simpsons shorts|Tracey Ullman short]] "[[Good Night]]".<ref name="americasfirstfamily">{{cite video|people=BBC|year=2000|title='The Simpsons': America's First Family (6 minute edit for the season 1 DVD)|url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250735/|format=DVD|location=UK|publisher=20th Century Fox}}</ref>

In ''The Simpsons'' Season Four DVD commentary, Matt Groening states the original idea behind Marge's hair was to conceal large rabbit ears. The gag was intended to be revealed in the final episode of the series, but was scrapped early on due to inconsistencies.<ref>[[Matt Groening]], The Complete Fourth Season DVD (2004) commentary for episode Selma's Choice. 20th Century Fox</ref>

=== Name ===
Marge's middle name is her maiden name. This is referenced multiple times, including in the episodes "[[Homer Scissorhands]]", "[[Holidays of Future Passed]]", and "[[Convenience Airways]]".

=== Reception ===
[[Julie Kavner]] received a Primetime Emmy Award in 1992 for voicing Marge in the episode "[[I Married Marge]]".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.emmys.org/awards/awardsearch.php |title=Primetime Emmy Awards Advanced Search|publisher=Emmys.org|accessdate=2008-02-09}}</ref> In 2004, Kavner and [[Dan Castellaneta]] (the voice of Homer) won a Young Artist Award for "Most Popular Mom & Dad in a TV Series".<ref name="YAA">{{cite news|url=http://www.youngartistawards.org/noms25.htm|title=25th Annual Winners and Nominees|accessdate=2008-01-18|publisher=Youngartistawards.org}}</ref> For her performance in ''[[The Simpsons Movie]]'', Kavner received a nomination for "Best Voice Acting in an Animated Feature" at the 2007 Annie Awards, but lost to Ian Holm in ''Ratatouille''.<ref name="A35">{{cite news|url=http://annieawards.org/foryourconsideration.html|title=For Your Consideration|

=== Cultural Influence ===
==== Merchandising ====
Marge is featured in much Simpsons-related merchandise, including T-shirts, baseball caps, stickers, cardboard stand-ups, refrigerator magnets, key rings, buttons, dolls, posters and figurines. She appeared in all of The Simpsons video games, including [[The Simpsons Game]]. Besides the television series, Marge regularly appears in issues of Simpsons Comics. Marge also plays a role in [[The Simpsons Ride]], at Universal Studios Florida and Hollywood.

==== Playboy Shoot ====
[[File:Aye Carumba! Marge Simpson poses for Playboy cover.jpg|thumb|The Playboy cover]]
In October 2009, it was announced Marge would be featured on the front cover of the November issue of Playboy. The edition was first published on October 16, 2009. The cover and a three-page picture spread, as well as a story inside entitled ''The Devil in Marge Simpson'', is a celebration of the 20th anniversary of The Simpsons, but is also part of a plan to appeal to younger readers. Chief executive of Playboy Enterprises, Scott Flanders, said the cover and centerfold were "somewhat tongue-in-cheek".

=== Foreign dubs ===
Like in the original version in English, Marge is voiced by a female actress in several languages. However, in some dubs like in the Czech, Marge is voiced by a male actor instead of a female.

== Trivia ==
{{Images|Marge}}

'''Marjorie "Marge" Bouvier Simpson''' (née '''Bouvier'''; born March 19<ref name="Exit Through the Kwik-E-Mart">"[[Exit Through the Kwik-E-Mart]]"</ref>) is the happy homemaker and full-time mom of the [[Simpson family]]. With her husband [[Homer]], she has three children: [[Bart]], [[Lisa]], and [[Maggie Simpson]]. Marge is the moralistic force in her family and often provides a grounding voice in the midst of her family's antics by trying to maintain order in the Simpson household. Aside from her duties at home, Marge flirted briefly with a number of careers ranging from police officer to anti-violence activist.

== Biography ==
[[File:Marge Every Simpsons Ever.png|thumb|left|250px]]
[[File:Marge mopping.png|thumb|left|Artwork of Marge from [[season 24]]]]
Marge Bouvier was born on March 19, She is the third born child of the Bouvier family. Growing up her parents called her "Margie." She has a pair of sisters, the joyless twins, [[Patty]] and [[Selma]], both of whom vocally disapprove of Homer.

Marge went on to attend [[Springfield High School]], and in her final year met [[Homer Simpson]]. She was at first wary of Homer, but agreed to go to the prom with him, although she ended up going with [[Artie Ziff]]. However, she regrets going with him because he tried to have sex with her afterwards. Artie takes her home and later on she picks up Homer, walking home, in her car. Marge tells him how much she regretted going to the prom with Artie instead of him, causing Homer to somewhat repair the strap of her dress with the corsage he got her. After that decision, her sisters showed their discontent towards him and ultimately think he was just wrong for her. However, Selma does show she's willing to make a sincere attempt to like Homer for Marge's sake, causing him to have a higher opinion of her. Whereas, Patty never attempted to try and is always on Marge's case to leave Homer, thus it's why she and Homer hate each other.

After the two started dating for several years, Marge discovered she was pregnant with Bart, and she and Homer were married in a small wedding chapel across the state line. Lisa was born soon after, and the couple bought their first house.

She used to leave her children playing at [[Toddlin' Town]] while spending time with other moms, a group she calls [[The Cool Moms]]. They all lost contact to each other, but after many years they re-encountered.<ref>"[[Moms I'd Like to Forget]]"</ref>

Marge is the mother of the [[Simpson family]], who spends most her time doing housework, caring for [[Maggie]], being supportive of and indulging [[Lisa]] and either disciplining [[Bart]] or protecting him from Homer's wrath. Marge is the only member of the family who encourages church attendance. She also appears to have significant athletic ability. She is bilingual, being fully fluent in French.

Despite these tendencies Marge had her fair share of wild escapades throughout the show's history. She was once a [[Springfield Police|police officer]] in [[Springfield]],<ref name="Connection">"[[The Springfield Connection]]"</ref> took [[Dr. Zweig|therapy]] for [[Springfield Airport|flight]] fear,<ref>"[[Fear of Flying]]"</ref> was jailed for [[Kwik-E-Mart|shoplifting]],<ref name="Chains">"[[Marge in Chains]]"</ref> became a gambling addict,<ref>"[[$pringfield (Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)]]"</ref> showed alcoholic tendencies,<ref>"[[Co-Dependent's Day]]"</ref> was an unwilling participant in a cross-country police chase,<ref>"[[Marge on the Lam]]"</ref> overdosed on steroids,<ref name="The Strong Arms of the Ma">"[[The Strong Arms of the Ma]]"</ref> cheated in a cooking competition<ref name="Oven">"[[All's Fair in Oven War]]"</ref> and developed amnesia.<ref>"[[Regarding Margie]]"</ref>

[[File:Margefolder.png|thumbnail|left|Marge's character folder in the Hall of Records on The Simpsons website.]]
=== Personality ===
Marge is a foil to her reckless and impulsive husband. Nevertheless, she is a good wife to Homer and a caring mother to her children. Having high morals and a tendency to be a 'wet blanket' as Homer puts it. She dislikes and tries to avoid taking any sort of risk, can be fearful of new things and set her life to a routine to the point she actually wore a groove into the carpet going from the kitchen to the bedroom and the basement from her constant housework. She tends to consider anything that isn't completely plain to be amazing or exotic, even if they're not all that special. Such as deviled ham opposed to normal ham and buttered noodles opposed to unbuttered noodles. She has also been depicted as a killjoy and attempt to stop things other characters otherwise find fun. She always believes she has a good reason for doing so even if it's only her who has a problem. She once [[Itchy and Scratchy]] banned because Maggie injured Homer after imitating a scene from the cartoon.<ref>"[[Itchy & Scratchy & Marge]]"</ref> She tried to demolish a burlesque house even though it hurt no one and no one else wanted it destroyed,<ref>"[[Bart After Dark]]"</ref> and she outright says if something isn't to her taste, no one else should be allowed to enjoy it.<ref>"[[The Great Wife Hope]]"</ref> Homer sums up his wife when he tells her: "If it was up to [Marge], all we'd ever do is work and go to church."

=== Physical Appearance ===
Marge has tall blue hair in a tall {{W|beehive hairstyle}} and usually wears a tube-style green dress, orange flats, and a red pearl necklace. The pearl necklace is a Bouvier family heirloom and she is seen to have a big drawer full of them.<ref>"[[Homer the Vigilante]]"</ref> [[Lisa]] also wears a pearl necklace, but with white pearls. Doctor Hibbert revealed she has webbed feet.<ref name="Chains"/> She remarked she used to have a "perfect 26-26-26" figure.<ref>"[[Husbands and Knives]]"</ref>

As a teen, Marge had waist length hair she always wore down, but got the idea to wear it in her trademark beehive for senior prom;<ref>"[[The Way We Was]]"</ref> This is sometimes contradicted by recent flashbacks showing Marge as a child, where she is portrayed with her hair worn tall. Her hair is thick enough for her to keep objects like the family savings in it.<ref>"[[Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire]]"</ref> Her hair is once shown close to her knees, consistent with the logic a lot of hair would be needed to create her tall beehive.<ref>"[[Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious]]"</ref> It was revealed by Homer Marge dyes her hair with blue dye #56, stating ''"She's been gray as a mule since she was seventeen."'' <ref>"[[Secrets of a Successful Marriage]]"</ref> Because of her unusually large hairstyle, her height is reported to be 8'6", as noted by Apu.<ref name="Chains"/> Her hair was blue before she met Homer and was brunette at one time due to Marge ironing a piece of her hair for a long time.<ref>"[[The Way We Weren't]]"</ref>

=== Political Views ===
Politically, Marge generally aligns with the Democratic Party. She once mentions she voted for Jimmy Carter ("twice" according to [[Lisa]]),supported the candidacy of their state's progressive governor [[Mary Bailey]], and also claimed to have been extremely depressed when Lyndon B. Johnson died. She, however, appears to be a Conservative Democrat, unlike the Left-Winged Lisa.

=== Talents ===
Marge is a very talented painter. When she was a teenager she had an intense crush on [[Ringo Starr]] and painted a large number of portraits of him. She also wrote to him, but only received a reply 25 years later. After Homer discovered her old paintings, Lisa encouraged Marge to enroll in an art contest where her portrait of a drunk Homer asleep on the couch won a local art competition. She was hired by [[Mr. Burns]] to do a portrait of him. After many attempts, she almost gave up until a belated response from [[Ringo Starr]], (stating she had talent), inspired her to continue. The resulting portrait won even Mr. Burns' praise, a massive feat in itself, and was placed at the [[Springfield Art Museum]]s Burn's Wing.<ref>"[[Brush with Greatness]]"</ref>

Marge is also a very talented cook. She once bought a pretzel business, which flourished with the aid of the [[Springfield Mafia|mafia]].<ref name="The Twisted World of Marge Simpson">"[[The Twisted World of Marge Simpson]]"</ref> She entered various cooking challenges, although circumstances such as vengeful competitors and overheated ovens cause her to lose and once, sabotage other competitors. Marge says she feeds the family on twelve dollars a week, using sawdust to pad Homer's food.<ref name="Oven"/> Generally she is regarded as a very good cook, despite the unusual fact she knows of fewer than eight spices and apparently constructs very bad ice cream sundaes. She is especially renowned for her pork chops, Homer's favorite dish. She once worked in [[Au Naturel]], an erotic bakery in [[Springfield]].<ref name="Pies">"[[Sex, Pies and Idiot Scrapes]]"</ref>

=== Jobs ===
Marge had many jobs, most of which lasted a short period of time, these include:
*{{W|Carhop}} at [[Berger's Burgers]]<ref>"[[Homer's Odyssey]]"</ref><ref>"[[I Married Marge]]"</ref>
*Pretzel vendor<ref name="The Twisted World of Marge Simpson"/>
*4th grade schoolteacher both homeschooling<ref>"[[Whacking Day]]"</ref> and as a strikebreaker<ref>"[[The PTA Disbands]]"</ref>
*[[Springfield Police|Policewoman]]<ref name="Connection"/>

*Real estate agent for [[Red Blazer Realty]]<ref>"[[Realty Bites]]"</ref>
*[[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant|Power plant]] employee<ref>"[[Marge Gets a Job]]"</ref>
*Baker for an Erotic Bakery <ref name="Pies"/>

=== Future ===
In the future, Marge leaves Homer after he blew the family savings on an underwater home. She dates [[Krusty the Clown]]. Homer tries to win Marge's love back by beating him up, and is beaten up himself. Marge gets back together with Homer.<ref>"[[Future-Drama]]"</ref>
=== Treehouse of Horror ===
In "[[Treehouse of Horror VII]]" segment "The Thing and I", it is known Marge gave birth to Siamese twins: Bart and [[Hugo Simpson|Hugo]]. Hugo was thought evil, so he was kept in the house's attic. Hugo attempts to sew him and Bart back together, but he is stopped by Doctor Hibbert. They discover Bart's scar is on the other side, so he is the evil twin after all and is kept in the attic instead, while Hugo has dinner with his family.

== Behind the Laughter ==
=== Creation ===
[[File:MG01frame10.png|thumb|The first appearances of Marge and Lisa Simpson in "[[Good Night]]", a short from ''[[The Tracey Ullman Show]]''.]]
[[Matt Groening]] first conceived the Simpson family in the lobby of [[James L. Brooks]]' office. He had been called in to pitch a series of animated shorts, and intended to present his ''Life in Hell'' series. When he realized animating ''Life in Hell'' would require him to rescind publication rights for his life's work, Groening decided to go in another direction. He hurriedly sketched out his version of a dysfunctional family, and named the characters after his own own family, with his mother's first name being Marge (short for Margaret). Marge made her debut with the rest of the Simpsons clan on 19 April 1987 in the [[The Simpsons shorts|Tracey Ullman short]] "[[Good Night]]".<ref name="americasfirstfamily">{{cite video|people=BBC|year=2000|title='The Simpsons': America's First Family (6 minute edit for the season 1 DVD)|url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250735/|format=DVD|location=UK|publisher=20th Century Fox}}</ref>

In ''The Simpsons'' Season Four DVD commentary, Matt Groening states the original idea behind Marge's hair was to conceal large rabbit ears. The gag was intended to be revealed in the final episode of the series, but was scrapped early on due to inconsistencies.<ref>[[Matt Groening]], The Complete Fourth Season DVD (2004) commentary for episode Selma's Choice. 20th Century Fox</ref>

=== Name ===
Marge's middle name is her maiden name. This is referenced multiple times, including in the episodes "[[Homer Scissorhands]]", "[[Holidays of Future Passed]]", and "[[Convenience Airways]]".

=== Reception ===
[[Julie Kavner]] received a Primetime Emmy Award in 1992 for voicing Marge in the episode "[[I Married Marge]]".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.emmys.org/awards/awardsearch.php |title=Primetime Emmy Awards Advanced Search|publisher=Emmys.org|accessdate=2008-02-09}}</ref> In 2004, Kavner and [[Dan Castellaneta]] (the voice of Homer) won a Young Artist Award for "Most Popular Mom & Dad in a TV Series".<ref name="YAA">{{cite news|url=http://www.youngartistawards.org/noms25.htm|title=25th Annual Winners and Nominees|accessdate=2008-01-18|publisher=Youngartistawards.org}}</ref> For her performance in ''[[The Simpsons Movie]]'', Kavner received a nomination for "Best Voice Acting in an Animated Feature" at the 2007 Annie Awards, but lost to Ian Holm in ''Ratatouille''.<ref name="A35">{{cite news|url=http://annieawards.org/foryourconsideration.html|title=For Your Consideration|

=== Cultural Influence ===
==== Merchandising ====
Marge is featured in much Simpsons-related merchandise, including T-shirts, baseball caps, stickers, cardboard stand-ups, refrigerator magnets, key rings, buttons, dolls, posters and figurines. She appeared in all of The Simpsons video games, including [[The Simpsons Game]]. Besides the television series, Marge regularly appears in issues of Simpsons Comics. Marge also plays a role in [[The Simpsons Ride]], at Universal Studios Florida and Hollywood.

==== Playboy Shoot ====
[[File:Aye Carumba! Marge Simpson poses for Playboy cover.jpg|thumb|The Playboy cover]]
In October 2009, it was announced Marge would be featured on the front cover of the November issue of Playboy. The edition was first published on October 16, 2009. The cover and a three-page picture spread, as well as a story inside entitled ''The Devil in Marge Simpson'', is a celebration of the 20th anniversary of The Simpsons, but is also part of a plan to appeal to younger readers. Chief executive of Playboy Enterprises, Scott Flanders, said the cover and centerfold were "somewhat tongue-in-cheek".

=== Foreign dubs ===
Like in the original version in English, Marge is voiced by a female actress in several languages. However, in some dubs like in the Czech, Marge is voiced by a male actor instead of a female.

== Trivia ==
{{Images|Marge}}
*Marge has hazel-colored eyes.
*Bouvier is the surname of Jackie Kennedy-Onassis.
*She is left-handed, but she usually uses her right hand for everything to look normal, so she is ambidextrous.
*Her shoe size is 13AA.
*She has aviophobia (fear of flying) and probably also acrophobia (fear of heights).
*As shown in "[[Kill Gil, Volumes I & II]]", Marge has trouble saying "no". As shown when she was about 7, Patty and Selma told her to hide their cigarettes in her dollhouse. She said no and they stuffed her into the dollhouse.

Wikisimpsons:Canon

2023-09-24T22:01:45Z

Monster Bash: /* List of non-canon media */

{{Policy}}
<center><big>'''For discussions on the canonicity of episodes, please see [[Wikisimpsons talk:Canon|the talk page]]. Feel free to add to the discussion there!'''</big></center>

'''Canon''' is the official story of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' universe. Due to the episodic nature of ''The Simpsons'' and a floating timeline, some episodes are considered non-canon because they do not match up with the existing and future story and lore.

== Floating timeline ==
A {{W|floating timeline}} is often used in media where the characters do not age. The floating timeline is used to keep stories relevant for modern times without having the characters age up. Since ''The Simpsons'' has been airing since 1989 without the characters aging, the timeline adjusts to keep up with the current year. As such, characters have been different ages in different time periods. For example, [[Homer]] has been a young adult in the 1990s, as seen in the [[season 19]] episode "[[That '90s Show]]" and a teenager in the 1990s, as seen in the [[season 32]] episode "[[Do PizzaBots Dream of Electric Guitars?]]". These episodes are considered canon, just canon at different time periods.

== Separate canons ==
''The Simpsons'' executive producer [[Matt Selman]] has said that he considers episodes to take place in "its own little universe". This allows them to write about an "aspect of Springfield that hasn’t been examined before."<ref>[https://www.ign.com/articles/matt-selman-simpsons-hit-and-run-remake IGN - "The Simpsons: Matt Selman On Continuity And His Support For a Simpsons Hit & Run Remake"]</ref> This means that there's no official canon within the show.

However, some events from episodes do carry forward to other episodes. Major changes happen in the show that continue to other episodes. Big examples include [[Maude Flanders]]' death in the [[season 11]] episode "[[Alone Again, Natura-Diddily]]", the [[Ned Flanders]] and [[Edna Krabappel]] relationship in the [[season 22]] episode "[[The Ned-liest Catch]]", and [[Comic Book Guy]]'s marriage to [[Kumiko Albertson]] in the [[season 25]] episode "[[Married to the Blob]]". These permanent changes imply that there is a canon to ''The Simpsons''.

== Anthology episodes ==
[[:Category:Anthology episodes|Anthology episodes]] are episodes made up of multiple mini-stories. An example of these is the long-running [[Treehouse of Horror series|''Treehouse of Horror'' series]]. Most anthology episodes have a framing device used for the characters to tell the stories. These parts of the episodes are considered canon whilst the stories are considered fictional within the universe. Anthology episodes without a framing device, such as a majority of the Treehouse of Horror episodes, and the [[season 31]] episode "[[Thanksgiving of Horror]]", should all be considered non-canon.

== Comic stories and books ==
A majority of comic stories and books fit in with ''The Simpsons'' universe. However, episode canon comes before comic and book canon, so if an episode contradicts a comic story or book, the episode is considered canon but the comic or book isn't.

== Video games ==
All video games should be considered non-canon to the franchise.

Opening sequence

2023-05-23T19:41:17Z

Monster Bash:

{{Tab|ao}}
{{Realworld}}
{{Comp}}
The '''Opening sequence''' is one of the most notable hallmarks of ''[[The Simpsons]]''. Each episode opening differs from episode to episode, usually with a different [[Chalkboard Gag]], [[Couch gag]], Saxophone Solo, and [[Billboard gag]] (post Season 19).

== Season 1 ==
We fade into a dark blue screen. The "Ahh Chorus" synthesizer pad plays and the yellow text, "The Simpsons" materializes out of a mist. Singers intone "The Simpsons..." (''NOTE: Season One's theme music was a bit cruder, and more... staccato [for lack of a more descriptive term] than the version used later.'') The camera zooms, and we move through the letter "P" into the swoop. We fly over the power plant and tire yard, toward downtown Springfield. We move up the street past "Painless Dentistry toward the lavender colored elementary school. (''NOTE: Season One's swoop is relatively crudely animated, and was redone. The difference in perspective is especially noticeable, for instance in the power plant's cooling towers -- which looked quite flat in Season One's opening.'') We move through the school window and see Bart writing "I WILL NOT WASTE CHALK" (later season one episodes play the text differently) on the class chalkboard, as a punishment. In the classroom, the walls are either purple or blueish violet, and three pieces of stick-figure art hang next to Bart. He pauses and strikes a thinking pose, as the bell rings. Then, Bart grins and leaves the class---bursting out the front doors of the school and skating past a grassy field with trees in a crudely drawn background. Then it cuts to the Power Plant, where Homer is seen in a hazmat suit carrying a green uranium rod with a pair of orange tongs. He hears the quitting whistle, gleefully removes his mask, drops his tongs and leaves the building not realizing the rod has spun into the air and slid down his shirt. Behind him, there is a bald man behind him eating a sandwich with tongs. The caution sign over Homer's head has two holes on the right side, both blank. The next shot shows Marge and Maggie checking out at a supermarket. Marge reads "Mom Monthly" in the check out line. Maggie is inadvertently scanned along with the groceries. The cashier rings her up at as $847.63 and Maggie is mistakenly packaged. Marge wonders where Maggie is. She pops out of one of the shopping bags, and Marge sighs in relief. Then it cuts again to the school, where the band is practicing. People in the room (right to left):

African-American boy, brown haired boy playing bass violin (back row), blond girl with pigtails (front row), Largo, thin, curly haired girl (back row), blue haired girl, yellow haired boy,

Back row: Lewis (cymbals?) ready to crash, small pupiled African-American boy, a well groomed boy playing tuba, thin girl with purple hair playing French horn (on shoulder?), bulgy eyed boy holding blue trombone, nasty looking buck-toothed boy with green trumpet, large girl with bulgy eyes and a large nose holding a trumpet(?), hidden student, Lewis (again?), Beethoven's bust on cabinet,
Front row: red head girl in pigtails playing clarinet (front of Lewis), boy with green glasses playing clarinet, thin girl, with a large nose playing a green horn, nerdy boy wearing glasses and a green shirt playing horn, red head girl wearing a Lisa-like dress playing clarinet, [[Milhouse]] playing horn, [[Sherri]] and [[Terri]] playing flutes, and Lisa playing sax. (Sherri and Terri are huge compared to Milhouse and Lisa.)

[[File:SchoolBandRehearsalS1.png|800px|center]]

Lisa interrupts the rehearsal and plays a loud saxophone solo (the Simpsons theme song). [[Mr. Largo]] stops the band and points Lisa out of the door, due to her non-conforming playing. As the other students look on, she dances her way out of the classroom as she continues playing. On their way to their house at [[742 Evergreen Terrace]], the members of the family weave dangerously through traffic and in between fellow Springfield citizens. Homer is shown first, driving down the street, and uncomfortably discovering the uranium rod in his back. He pulls it out and throws it out the driver's-side window before dramatically turning out of the viewer's sight, creating a large cloud of dust that briefly fills the screen. The cloud clears, revealing [[Moe's Tavern]], where the rod bounces away. Bart comes by on skateboard, with pursed lips in a half grin. His right foot sticks off the board, as he grabs the lamp post to help him turn the corner. He skates past a pet store as well as an electronics store featuring a bank of solid-state television sets featuring [[Krusty the Clown]] which he turns and faces. In passing, he grabs the bus stop sign and takes it with him. On a passing bus, a sign says "Can't get enough of that wonderful Duff." The people in the bus include:

Bored bus driver, (first seat) dark skinned man looking out at camera, and primmed up Bart-looking man, (second seat) red haired, white skinned lady, (third seat) man rolling his eyes, woman with light blue hair, (fourth seat) tall, spindly woman with light blue hair and a pointy nose, (last seat) stocky man with purple hair. The people waiting take off and chase the bus as a smiling Marge and Maggie round the corner in a red coupe. (''NOTE: When the people pass by the pet store, a tree appears. On the other half of the tree, the background is completely different when Marge and Maggie pull in.'')

[[File:BartThruTownSeason1OriginalVersion.png|920px|center]]

Inside the car, Maggie is shown steering the wheel. With tires screeching, the car passes by a farm and makes a tight curve. As the car approaches another road, Maggie steers again, and the car makes another turn. The camera cuts back to Maggie, revealing that the wheel to be just a toy for her, as the camera pans out to show Marge driving. As the camera is zooming out, Maggie looks at Marge, then back at the road. Then, they both look at each other, and honk their horns. The camera cuts to a slightly low shot of Lisa, wobbling back and forth on her bike, with a large stack of books in the bike basket and her saxophone case behind her. She hits a bump, and all the books fly into the air, and then land safely back in the basket. She makes a turn (to our left) down the street past a couple of trees, and finally arriving at the house. She jumps off her bike in the driveway, grabbing her books and instrument case. The bike moves into the garage, the door already opening for Homer's car, as Lisa runs to the door. Homer's car comes from left to right, makes the turn into the driveway and stops. From the right, Bart one-hops his skateboard across Homer's car. Homer gets out just in time to see Marge's car. He screams a short scream silently (later season one episodes had a proper scream), and runs into the garage as her car pulls in behind. Looking over his shoulder frightened, he opens the door. Upon entering their house, they speed towards the living room couch. In the living room, the couch is brown, a mouse hole is seen and the painting is a crooked nature painting of a pond. The family now sits; Bart is squeezed off, up into the air and out of frame. As the theme song ends, the camera cuts to the TV set and show the credits (''Created by: Matt Groening. Developed by James L. Brooks, Matt Groening, Sam Simon.''). The TV set (close-up) is orange-brown, with an antenna to the top left. Bottom of TV: Dials (3) are green and there are two buttons. Bart falls over the TV on the "developed by" screen (later season one episodes cut the transition)

== Season 2-Season 20, ending with "[[Lisa the Drama Queen]]" ==
The sequence once again opens with the show's title zooming in on the camera. But this time, the sky has a much brighter blue color, with several cumulus clouds which part, as the text appears. Flying through the loop, we focus on one purple cooling tower. We see the power plant, welcome sign, and Springfield Prison behind the plant. We fly over the power plant and tire yard, toward downtown Springfield. "Painless Dentistry" is replaced with "Candy Dandy" as we move towards the Springfield Elementary School, which is now orange with purple accents instead of lavender. The infamous streetlamp glitch happens as we move toward the school—it snaps violently to the right (this is only in a handful of episodes in seasons 2-20). The sequence of Bart writing the Chalkboard Gag is also redone. The walls are now dark-green and Bart's chalk does not squeak in later episodes of the second season and beyond. '''(NOTE: The final use of the chalk squeaking was in the episode "[[Homer Defined]]". Ironically, he wrote "I will not squeak chalk".)''' There is a clock showing 3:00 PM, and a wastebasket stands to Bart's right. A portrait hangs on the right side of the blackboard, and bookcase full of books sits behind him. Bart stops writing for a second and glares at the chalkboard. When the bell rings, he grins, runs out of the classroom, and skates out of the school, flying gleefully past the flagpole. (''NOTE: The episodes "[[Barting Over]]" and "[[Little Orphan Millie]]" has Bart laughing as he runs out of the classroom.'') Bart also passes a three-story glass and concrete building, a four-story orange building, and some trees and bushes. The animation used during this scene is much smoother and the perspective problem is solved. (''NOTE: In "[[Barting Over]]", when the camera shifts to its sight at the school, part of the end credits music is playing until Bart runs out of the classroom, after chopping the chalkboard with an axe.'') The next shot shows Homer preparing to leave the power plant in the same fashion as the previous intro, with the small uranium bar once again flying down his shirt. In this scene, the man eating lunch is replaced with Mr. Burns and Smithers, looking at a layout plan when the end-of-shift whistle blows. Mr. Burns puts his watch up to his ear and shakes it, as if he believes it has stopped. The caution sign over Homer's head has a green light on top, and a red light on the bottom.

It then goes to the Grocery store, where Marge is reading the "Mom Monthly" magazine. The background is more orange than red, as in the first season opening sequence. Maggie's hands are also now straight on her side rather than put in triangle position and as she is checked out the cash register flashes $847.63. (''NOTE: Some episodes like "Barting Over" had more sounds of the cash register in the background as the other items, before Maggie are checked out.'') Back at the school, Lisa is shown at band rehearsal, with a slightly deeper sax solo (either the Simpsons theme or a different tune).

[[File:SchoolBandRehearsalS2.png|800px|center]]

Next, Homer is seen driving and throwing the rod out of the window, but does not bounce near Moe's. Bart skates in with a big grin, past a store with an "Open" sign as he turns into a corner. He makes a better turn, with both feet on the board. This time, instead of passing a group of generic characters and swiping a bus stop sign, he weaves in between several secondary characters who crowd the sidewalk. He passes [[Helen Lovejoy]], carrying bags from the [[Springfield Mall]], passes a book store, dodges to the right, passes [[Apu Nahasapeemapetilon]] who is walking his dog. Bart then dodges left, passes [[Moe Szyslak]], holding a towel and standing in the doorway of his bar, passes an approaching [[Barney]] (who belches) on his left, passes [[Jacques Brunswick]] (who's walking right) carrying a bowling ball and dodges left. TV screens with Krusty appear in the window. Bart looks for a minute, then grins again. He passes [[Bleeding Gums Murphy]], who's facing the street with his sax around his shoulder. Bart, then passes [[Clancy Wiggum]] standing on the corner, who yells and shakes his baton at Bart. (''NOTE: The episodes, "[[Little Orphan Millie]]" and "[[Husbands and Knives]]" has some voices accompanying the people Bart skateboards past.'') The town square, with the [[Jebediah Springfield]] statue is seen in the background. Marge's car comes from the right and turns on to the street that Bart crossed. In this version and beyond, the car is orange, and a low shot of the car approaching is moved after the second time Maggie steers. In the next scene, Lisa's bike sequence is removed. Instead, the camera very quickly pans over a static landscape shot of various Springfield locales and a mix of both familiar and relatively unknown characters. The zip-pan to the right shot includes: the highway, Milhouse throwing a baseball, kids playing in a yard, [[Nelson]] and thugs with kid in trashcan, [[Richard]] and Lewis, [[Jimbo]] threatening [[Martin]], [[Mr. Winfield]] and [[Sylvia Winfield]] in rocking chairs, [[Patty]] and [[Selma]] suntanning with cone bikini tops, [[Kent Brockman]] reporting, Sherri and Terri holding hands, Herman, Grampa and [[Jasper]] holding a book, the retirement castle, man reading the retirement castle sign, old folks walking out (like those that Marge sees holding hands in [[7G11]]), [[Sam]] holding thumbs up, [[Lou]] and [[Eddie]] behind a barricade, [[Marvin Monroe]] holding a clipboard, Wendell with his head out of the bus ready to vomit, [[Dr. Hibbert]] comparing notes with Monroe, two blond girls, cat-eye glass girl in street, [[Otto]] next to broken down bus, a bucktoothed boy from orchestra in street, a mountain on the background, a bluebird that [[Maude]] sees, Flanders house, Ned and [[Todd]] holding another bluebird.

The Simpsons all arrive home at the same time. This time there is oil stain, and Homer arrives home first. Also, after Bart lands on the car roof with his skateboard, the garage door opens and Homer gets out glaring at Bart, slamming the door. He quickly dodges Lisa on her bike and yells, "[[D'oh!]]", as she follows Bart without dismounting. He steps back out and screams as Marge's car approaches. He looks over his left shoulder, then his right as he runs into the garage. (NOTE: During Marge's view, the car still happens to be a red coupe from the first season.) This is followed by the Couch Gag. In the living room, the rabbit-ear antennae on the TV are more sophisticated and the painting above the couch is slanted and now features a sailboat. The TV set is blueish purple. Dials on right of set: two on top, blue speaker below, on top of the TV a VCR and rabbit ears on top.

=== Prototype version ===
The original prototype version of this opening was used on [[Season 2]] episodes. The theme was an upbeat and dramatic version of that used for the first season, Homer's scream is more high-pitched and the school band performs a slightly distorted version of the theme, with Lisa once again playing a jazzy version of said theme. ''(NOTE: When Homer dodges Lisa's bike on the driveway, he doesn't say "D'oh!" until "[[Homer vs. Lisa and the 8th Commandment]]", although on "[[Bart Gets Hit by a Car]]" he lets out a short, high-pitched scream)''. The TV set's legs are also visible at the end. In "[[Bart Gets an "F"]]", the colors are darker and brighter. During the rest of the show (until Season 20), starting with "[[Simpson and Delilah]]", the colors remained the same, except for the music and Bart's chalkboard gag, which was constantly using high color saturation. This would not change, until the season 3 premiere "[[Stark Raving Dad]]" which used a new theme. "[[When Flanders Failed]]", also in season 3, was the last episode (and the only episode not in season 2) to use the prototype intro and the high-saturation chalkboard gag. Later, the episode, "[[Saturdays of Thunder]]" would introduce the full version of the current theme music (outside of the US).

=== Short versions ===
Starting with this opening, there have been shorter versions:
On "[[One Fish, Two Fish, Blowfish, Blue Fish]]", the camera goes from the "P" of the title card to the classroom with Bart's chalkboard gag. After the bell rings, the scene shifts to Homer at the Power Plant, thus skipping Bart skating out of the front doors of the school. After Lisa's sax solo, the scene goes straight to the driveway, where Homer pulls in. This was often shown on Season Three episodes, where the sequence's orchestral arrangement was revamped starting with "[[Stark Raving Dad]]". ''(NOTE: On the full versions of the opening, when Bart begins to run out of the classroom, the camera immediately pans out of the window of the school. However, when Bart runs out, the camera stays in the classroom, before it cuts to Homer.)''.

On "[[Lisa's Substitute]]", the camera goes from the "P" of the title card to the driveway scene. Starting with "[[Lisa the Greek]]", the sequence arrangement is changed to match the current theme. This version, the shortest of them all, was used on a jumble of episodes as well as syndicated reruns of the episodes with the longer openings. On "[[The Two Mrs. Nahasapeemapetilons]]", Marge's view of Homer running away from her car is cut, and the camera cuts from the driveway straight to the couch gag.

On "[[$pringfield (Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)|$pringfield]]", the opening is almost the same as the first short version, beginning with the opening going through the "P" of the title card to Bart's classroom. However, this version goes from Bart running out of the classroom to the driveway scene. This was often shown on almost all of the sixth season and most early seventh season episodes. A shorter version, as shown on "[[The Sweetest Apu]]", has the scene shift from Bart exiting the classroom to Marge's view of Homer running from the car and into the house ''(NOTE: remastered prints of this episode use the "[[Lisa's Substitute]]" intro, omitting the chalkboard gag)''.

On "[[The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular]]", the opening is much like the sixth season opening, except that there is a different shot of the clouds, the town swoop across town is shown (with a modified text), and there are a mix of couch gags from 8F18, 9F02, 9F10, 9F09, 8F09, 1F02, 2F31, 2F09, 2F06, 1F17, 2F11, and 9F08, as the full version of the theme song continues to play.

On "[[Barting Over]]", the opening cuts from Lisa's sax solo to Maggie driving. On "[[Homer's Paternity Coot]]", the opening is similar except it shortens the car sequence.

On "[[Million-Dollar Abie]]", the opening goes from Lisa's sax solo to the driveway scene. This was shown on a handful of late Season 17-early Season 20 episodes. On "[[G.I. (Annoyed Grunt)]]", the opening skips the first part of the driveway scene and starts with Homer screaming and running away from Marge's car.

== Season 20, begining with "[[Take My Life, Please]]" ==
This new HD sequence opens with the show's title zooming in on the camera while moving forwards through cumulus clouds. A crow with three eyes passes by as the chorus sing the title. It continues to zoom in on the town where [[Jimbo Jones]] and [[Kearney Zzyzwicz]] saw off the head of the [[Jebediah Springfield]] statue in front of the town square (a reference to "[[The Telltale Head]]", when Bart cut it off). The head then falls off on [[Ralph Wiggum]], about to eat an ice cream. Panning behind Ralph, the camera passes by [[Android's Dungeon]] and a [[Lard Lad]] Donut Statue (where the crow lands) on the left and a new [[Billboard gag]], that changes every episode, on the right. The scene continues to zoom in through a window of Springfield Elementary, where Bart is writing the Chalkboard gag. (''NOTE: The newest opening spends a lot more time on the previous gags, so the pan to the Springfield Elementary School to Bart's classroom is quicker, with slightly less time to read the gag before it's all in view.'') In the classroom, the portrait on the wall is of Homer [[Deep Space Homer|as an astronaut]]. The bell rings and Bart zooms out of the school, onto his skateboard, and lands into a pile of leaves [[Groundskeeper Willie]] just finished raked up. As Bart jumps off the pile, [[Barney Gumble]] is revealed under the pile and belches. The next scene shows Homer getting ready to head back home with a uranium bar stuck on his back. In the background, [[Lenny Leonard]] and [[Carl Carlson]] were putting up the number 3 over the number 2 on a sign that says 'Days Without An Accident.' However, they fall off the ladder as they hear the whistle for the end of the shift.

The next shot shows Marge and Maggie, in front of [[Selma Bouvier|Selma]] and [[Patty Bouvier]], checking out with the groceries. The items on the conveyor belt include [[Tomacco Juice]] and [[Mr. Sparkle]] power clean detergent (labeled in ''katakana''). When a box of [[Krusty-O's]] is scanned, the total amount on the register changes from $236.60 to $243.26, which means the price of the cereal is $6.66. Maggie is inadvertently scanned, too, which doubles the register total to $486.52, and she is mistakenly packaged with the groceries. Marge looks mildly concerned but smiles well as Maggie pops out of the bag. Maggie then sees [[Baby Gerald]] and angrily shakes her fist at him as Gerald does the same. During Lisa's sax solo, more "common" characters are shown in the orchestra. Recognizable characters include (back row, right to left) [[Wendell]], [[Database]], [[Martin Prince]], [[Richard]], [[Lewis]], [[Cosine]], [[Ham]], [[Report Card]], and [[Jessica Lovejoy]], and (front row, right to left) [[Janey]], Milhouse, Sherri and Terri (now playing on portable video game systems instead of flutes), and Lisa. Also, Mr. Largo dismisses Lisa quicker (pointing towards the exit but not tapping his music stand), showing her longer. At the end of her solo, she ducks inside briefly for a flourish and smiles. This part may be of variable length, and a split second longer than the previous opening. Also, there is an additional picture of the late [[Bleeding Gums Murphy]] on the wall.

[[File:SchoolOrchestraHD.png|800px|center]]

When Homer is seen driving down the highway, his car is accurately shown as having four doors instead of two, and the skyline in the background is replaced with mountains. After he discards the uranium bar, it lands on [[Otto Mann]]'s lap ''(NOTE: this time, Homer does not make an on-screen right turn after throwing the bar -- instead, the camera quickly pans to Otto, who is sitting on a park bench. Also, there is no cloud of exhaust smoke.)'' Otto, despite not knowing what it is, shrugs and eats it. Bart skateboards by Otto and then the same building with the "OPEN" sign seen in the previous intro before turns the corner with a muted whoosh. He passes [[Sideshow Bob]] (who swings a machete at him) [[Helen Lovejoy]], [[Apu]] and his eight children, [[Moe]] (at the doorway of [[Moe's Tavern|his bar]]), [[Comic Book Guy]], [[Disco Stu]] (who exclaims, sometimes audibly), a window of HD televisions showing Krusty, [[Crazy Cat Lady]], [[The Rich Texan]] (who gleefully shoots his revolvers in the air) and once again, [[Clancy Wiggum]] who angrily waves his nightstick. [[Hans Moleman]] peeks out the manhole in the street, but Marge's car (which is now her orange station wagon instead of a coupe) slams it shut with a clang as it passes by. In this scene, a sleeping [[Grampa]] is seen in the front passenger seat during the zoom-out (but not until then), with Maggie in the middle. When Marge and Maggie honk the horn, he wakes up confused and loses his false teeth as he was sitting right next to them in the car. The camera very quickly pans over the same static landscape shot of various Springfield locales and a mix of both familiar and relatively unknown characters like the previous version, but this time it includes a lot more characters, even [[God]] and the [[Devil]]. The new shot includes:

Agnes, Skinner, Chalmers, Milhouse playing ball with Richard and Lewis, Willie on his tractor, Ralph playing on [[Frank Grimes]]' grave, Martin about to be beaten by the three bullies, Squeaky-Voiced Teen, Quimby and Miss Springfield wearing each others' sashes, [[Chazz Busby]], the sea captain holding a 3-eyed fish, Patty and Selma still sunbathing in those suits, Cletus and Brandine with [[Plopper]], Kang and Kodos in a UFO, Burns and Smithers, Kent and {{ap|Doug|camera man}}, Sherri and Terri still playing video games, Krusty smoking on a wall with "El Barto" graffiti, Bumblebee Man and Luigi watching the UFO, Eddie and Lou at the bus roadblock, Snake stealing Lou's gun, Fat Tony with Legs and Louie burying someone, Miss Hoover changing the flat tire on the broken-down bus, Wendell still leaning out of the bus (sick), kids in front including Janey, Dr. Hibbert with a clipboard (but no Monroe), Duffman, Jessica Lovejoy, Mr. Teeny and Sideshow Mel, God (whose head is off-screen) fighting the devil (who's standing on a tower), and finally Rod and Todd playing in their yard.

[[File:Picture 9.png|920px|center]]

[[File:PanoramaHD.jpg|920px|center]]

During the driveway scene, there is still an oil stain on the pavement. Also, the main change is that instead of running away from Marge's car and screaming, Homer is hit with the car and flattened on the hood, and instead of running inside, he is hurled grunting through the door leading to the living room by inertia, leaving a Homer-shaped hole. Upon entering their house, the couch gag follows. The living room is mostly the same, but the TV is now a widescreen HD model, with the bent rabbit-ears still on top. Again, a widescreen set, with four unmarked buttons on the right, speakers below. A VCR or some unit is on top still. As the [[Theme Song|theme song]] ends, the television showing the opening credits falls off as if it was hung on the wall (However, in the next seasons, the scene where the TV falls was cut). Also, unlike the previous opening sequences, there is no cut to black; the episode begins immediately.

== Other versions ==
=== Live action ===
In 2006, [[Sky1]] in the [[United Kingdom]] began advertising ''The Simpsons'' using a live-action recreation of the series' opening sequence directed by Chris Palmer.

It was the second time they had done so, the first being in September 2000 as part of a weekend celebrating the 10th anniversary of the show premiering in the UK. Except for the very first shot in which the logo appears out of the clouds, every piece of the opening is present in this version, with even multiple [[Chalkboard gag|chalkboard]] and [[couch gag]]s filmed. Attached to the end of this sequence is the message "Come home to ''The Simpsons'' on Sky One." A version was also made for cinema distribution. Because the live action sequence was made in the UK, there are some slight cultural differences, such as [[Homer]] and [[Marge]] driving on the left in a right hand drive car, and the actor playing [[Chief Wiggum]] wearing a British police uniform.

The sequence was used instead of the regular opening titles on the episode "[[Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife]]", first broadcast on [[FOX]] on March 26, 2006 with the images during the driving scenes mirrored so that the cars appeared to be driving on the right side of the road with the steering wheel on the left side of the car.

=== Treehouse of Horror IX ===
Another fall afternoon at Springfield Elementary finds Bart Simpson engaged in his after-school punishment. This time, he has to write "The Simpsons Halloween Special IX." Instead of the usual chalk, Bart chooses to write the message in blood (dipping the brush into a jack-o-lantern bucket when it's time for a refill). When the bell rings, he tosses the brush down and gleefully runs out of the building. At home, Homer pulls into the driveway. Bart skateboards in from the right, jumps the retaining wall, and bounces off the roof of Homer's car only to land with a thud in the driveway. Lisa races in on her bike and slams into Bart's broken body. The impact launches her from her bike, and Lisa is firmly lodged into the wall of the garage, just above the door. Marge and Maggie cheerily drive in, beeping their horn, but Homer is too slow in getting out of the way. He becomes a permanent hood ornament for Marge's car. Meanwhile, in the Simpson living room Freddie Krueger and Jason Voorhees wait vainly for the family to arrive. Freddie glances at his watch, and says they should have arrived by now. Jason just shrugs and takes things in stride.

=== Christmas ===
A Christmas-themed version was animated for "[[JABF01|Kill Gil: Vols. 1 & 2]]" and later re-used on "[[The Burns and the Bees]]". It begins with two lines of instrumental "O Christmas Tree" and then the normal theme music begins. This version is similar to the normal version, except for several key differences:
#Everything outside is covered with snow.
#Bart's skateboard has been replaced with a snowboard.
#Everyone is wearing winter clothes.
#Mr. Burns and Smithers are styled ''a la'' {{W|Ebenezer Scrooge|Scrooge}} and the ghost of {{W|Jacob Marley|Marley}}, respectively, and there are several Christmas banners in the plant, including a banner that says "NO BONUSES" (a possible callback to "[[Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire]]").
#On "[[The Burns and the Bees]]", Lisa's saxophone solo is a jazzy version "Deck the Halls".
#Bleeding Gums Murphy, who is now deceased, has been replaced with Jasper in a Santa costume. Maude Flanders, however, remains in the pan across Springfield, despite having also died.
#Marge and Maggie's supermarket and car sequence have unfortunately been cut.
#In the whip-pan across town, characters from the street as well as [[Jaffee]] and [[Bernice Hibbert]] have been added.
#Chief Wiggum stands in place of Dr. Hibbert in the pan. Hibbert is with his wife.
#The Winfields are absent from the pan.
#Wendell is no longer leaning out the bus window.
#Patty and Selma are making snow angels rather than sunbathing.
#Richard isn't with Milhouse and Lewis, but with Jaffee and [[Sophie Jensen]].

=== ''The Simpsons Movie'' ===
The sequence was completely remade for ''[[The Simpsons Movie]]'' and features the orchestrated version of "The Simpsons Theme" as adapted by Hans Zimmer, which is slightly different from the first track of ''[[The Simpsons Movie: The Music]]'' CD. The pre-sequence scene is displayed in a 16:9 television aspect ratio, with black matte bars at either end of the screen. As the sequence begins with the "The Simpsons" logo appearing out of the clouds, [[Professor Frink]] flies past in one of his inventions carrying a banner marked "MOVIE" and saying "Moo-vie! On the big screen!!" (at the very beginning of the DVD menu, he says "Moo-vie! On the small screen!!" in a similar vein to how he does it in the film) When he hits the bar on the left side, both it and the one on the right nudge out of view so that the image fills the entire screen.

Instead of going through the P of "SIMPSONS," the camera goes through the O of "MOVIE" as the banner falls loose. The camera zooms in on the town, with several major landmarks popping-up. The camera then zooms in to [[Mr. Burns]], who is holding a toothbrush in his bathroom with [[Smithers]] who gives him toothpaste, the extra weight of the toothpaste causes frail Mr. Burns to collapse. The camera then zooms past [[Moe's Tavern]] into the [[Kwik-E-Mart]] where [[Apu]] is secretly changing the expiration date on one of his products from 2006 to 2008 (this movie came out in summer 2007). Next the camera cuts to Springfield Elementary where [[Jimbo]], [[Dolph]] and [[Kearney]] are hoisting [[Martin Prince]] up a flagpole by his underwear and saluting it as if it were a flag. The camera then zooms through the window where [[Bart]] is writing lines for detention ("I will not illegally download this movie") before finishing with [[Green Day]] who are hosting a concert at [[Lake Springfield]], playing their version of the [[theme song]] and using a {{W|teleprompter}} to get its "lyrics" right.

=== ''The Simpsons Movie'' callback ===
For "[[He Loves to Fly and He D'ohs]]", the first new Simpsons episode to air after the release of ''[[The Simpsons Movie]]'', a callback sequence was animated. The sequence begins with Bart writing lines on the chalkboard, writing "I will not wait 20 years to make another movie". The school bell rings and he skates outside the door, showing the residents of Springfield restoring the town after the events of the movie. The multi-eyed creature from the movie is seen jumping onto Bart's shoulders, but is hit by a wrecking ball into a billboard of "Burns' Constructions", suggesting that [[Mr. Burns]] is attempting to regain his lost wealth by making money from the incident. The camera then pans on a large shard of glass, a piece from the destroyed dome. Bart rides on the piece, and weaves in between characters from the movie; [[President Schwarzenegger]], [[Colin]], [[Moe Szyslak]] (in his "Emperor" attire and shouting "Hey!"), [[Russ Cargill]], and the [[Medicine Woman]], who shakes her fist in a similar manner to [[Chief Wiggum]] and shouts "Why you...".

[[File:BatThruTownCallback.png|920px|center]]

The family arrives home to [[742 Evergreen Terrace]], which is shown to be still under construction. Homer's car arrives with the ''Pig Crap'' silo strapped on top. The family arrive to sit on the couch, where Plopper the pig is currently sitting, with the "Spider-Pig" tune being played in the background. Homer then grabs Plopper and proclaims that the pig is his "summer love".

=== Tik Tok ===
In the Opening of "[[To Surveil with Love]]", the Simpsons characters lip-synced to {{W|Ke$ha}}'s "[[Tik Tok]]" as part of the "Fox Rocks" event held on the FOX network the week it aired. This is the first canonical episode that does not feature the original theme song in the opening sequence in any capacity, in the show's history. The sequence features the characters performing actions that relate to the lyrics of the song.

=== 500th episode ===
The screen showing "The Simpsons", also read "500th episode", and below that "The most meaningless milestone of all!". During Bart's chalkboard gag, Bart is replaced with [[Milhouse]], while Bart is watching. After the couch gag (following a montage of every previous couch gag), it zooms out to a collage of the previous couch gags, reading "500". It breaks like glass, and Homer is seen strangling Bart (both in tuxedos).

=== Treehouse of Horror XXIV ===
The opening sequence is the Guillermo del Toro parody from the episode, "[[Treehouse of Horror XXIV]]".

=== My Fare Lady ===
For the episode, "[[My Fare Lady]]", a pixel art intro was used.

=== 750th episode ===
For "[[Homer's Adventures Through the Windshield Glass]]", the intro featured 750 characters from the show's entire history scattered across the intro.

== Parodies within the show ==
The opening sequence is parodied in several episodes of ''The Simpsons'':
*[[Mrs. Krabappel]] forces Bart to write "I Will Not Fake My Way Through Life" in "[[Bart Gets an "F"]]".

<gallery>
File:I Will Not Fake My Way Through Life (Bart Gets an F).png

*A short parody called "The Thompsons" in the episode "[[Cape Feare]]", when Sideshow Bob's harassment prompts the Simpsons go into the {{W|witness protection}} program, change their surname, and move to a houseboat on [[Terror Lake]]. The camera zooms across the town of Terror Lake and into the houseboat where the "Thompsons" arrive in their new convertible. Upon being seated on the couch, a pile of half-dead fish falls onto the family.

*In a scene from "[[Itchy & Scratchy: The Movie]]", on Parent-Teacher Night, Mrs. Krabappel gives [[Marge]] a full report on how badly [[Bart]] has been behaving in school, and then forces her to write "I will try to raise a better child" on the blackboard.

*Once as "The Hurricane" in the episode "[[Hurricane Neddy]]".
*In a scene from "[[Simpsons Bible Stories]]", Bart is writing a chalkboard punishment in hieroglyphics when he hears [[Milhouse]]'s horn being blown and leaves the classroom.
*In a scene from "[[Lisa's Date with Density]]", Lisa receives detention for snickering at Nelson spraying [[Groundskeeper Willie]] outside. In addition to this, she writes "I will not be a snickerpuss" on the chalkboard.
*In the middle of "[[The Heartbroke Kid]]", a parody of the intro titled "Three Weeks Later" is shown. Instead of writing on Ms. Krabappel's blackboard, a fat Bart is seen putting coins in a vending machine, from which he receives a chocolate bar. Upon the bell ringing, he quickly eats the bar and struggles to skate out the front doors of the school. Due to his wait gain, he cracks the pavement when he leaves the school, bends the lamppost, knocks Moe through the front window of his bar, rolls over Jacque's foot ("Aah! Be careful!"), slams into [[Marge]]'s station wagon (sending it spinning out of the viewer's sight), and crushes the roof of [[Homer]]'s car, catapulting him out, before finally stumbling into the living room and apparently having a heart attack.

*In the episode "[[Little Big Girl]]", Bart is awarded a driver's license, and a section of the opening sequence is shown with Bart at the chalkboard writing "So Long Suckers". He bursts through the school doors in Homer's car, instead of on his skateboard, and speeds away, doing all the same gags as the opening sequence, but instead of nimbly dodging all the obstacles, he runs them over. Homer then pulls into the driveway in Marge's wagon instead of his own car and steps out to enter the house, when the other car lands on him, and Bart walks into the house.

*In "[[At Long Last Leave]]", there is a parody of the opening sequence after the Simpsons move to [[The Outlands]]: [[Bart]] spray-paints graffiti on the wall of a run-down building that resembles [[Springfield Elementary School]], then rides a motorcycle through the wall, out the building and along the road to the family's new home. [[Homer]] arrives on an ATV; [[Lisa]] and [[Maggie]] in an {{W|Ultralight aviation|ultralight}} helicopter; and [[Marge]] in a horse-drawn grocery cart (running over Homer in the driveway). The family take their seats on the couch and watch a fox sleeping on a rock.

== Trivia ==
*In Season 22, the cash register reads $486.22, for there being 486 episodes at the end of Season 22.
*"[[Mr. Lisa Goes to Washington]]" is the first episode to have Lisa play something other than a jazzy version of the theme song, making her saxophone solo a running gag from this episode onward.
*In the pre-Season 10 episodes using the [[Circus Line couch gag]], part of the opening tune starting with Homer pulling up to the driveway is rearranged leading up to the gag.
*The [[Season 11|eleventh]] and [[Season 12|twelfth]] seasons are the only ones where every non-[[Treehouse of Horror series|Treehouse of Horror]] episode uses the full version of the opening sequence.
*The HD whip-pan shot is used as a mural in the eating area at [[Universal Orlando Resort]], however Frank Grimes' grave, the mafia, God and the Devil are edited out.

It is also the fifth installment in the [[Treehouse of Horror series|''Treehouse of Horror'' series]] and consists of three parts. It originally aired on October 30, [[1994]]. The episode was written by [[Greg Daniels]], [[Dan McGrath]], [[David S. Cohen]] and [[Bob Kushell]] and directed by [[Jim Reardon]]. It guest stars [[James Earl Jones]] as [[Maggie Simpson|alternate universe Maggie]].

== Synopsis ==
{{Desc|In the fifth annual Halloween special, the Simpsons become the caretakers of [[Shinning Hotel|a hotel]] owned by [[Mr. Burns]], [[Homer]] accidentally creates a time-traveling toaster, and the teachers at [[Springfield Elementary School]] start slaughtering children to eat them.}}

== Plot ==
=== Opening sequence ===
[[Marge]] gives a warning about the episode and says that they're not allowed to air it. Instead, they air a clip from the movie ''[[200 Miles to Oregon]]''. The clip is cut off by [[Bart]]'s voice who starts to give an ominous message. [[Homer]] cuts in and ruins the mood. Bart then introduces The Simpsons Halloween Special. The camera pans through the [[Springfield Cemetery]], showing [[Moe]] getting hanged, [[Patty]] and [[Selma]] being burned as witches, and several adults having their heads cut off by [[Bart]].

=== The Shinning ===
[[File:The Shinning - Title Card.png|thumb|left]]
On Tuesday, the [[Simpson family]] drives to [[Shinning Hotel|a hotel]] owned by [[Mr. Burns]] to become the caretakers of it. Marge asks Homer if he remembered to lock the front door, so they drive back to do that. On Wednesday, they almost make it again, but then have to drive back to lock the back door. On Thursday, [[Lisa]] points out that they left [[Grampa]] at the gas station, but they carry on regardless. They finally arrive and Mr. Burns shows them around the hotel. At the hedge maze, [[Bart]] cuts through it with a chainsaw, angering [[Groundskeeper Willie]]. When Bart reads Willie's mind, Willie tells Bart that he has "the shinning", which he can use to contact Willie if Homer goes crazy.

Back at the hotel, Mr. Burns gets [[Smithers]] to cut the cable and take all the beer from the lodge. Homer acts calmly about this at first, but then quickly begins to go crazy. He goes to the bar and speaks to [[Moe]], who's a ghost. He tells Homer that he has to kill his family to get a beer from him. Homer snaps and writes "no beer and no TV make Homer go crazy" over the walls before he tries to goad Marge into hitting him with a baseball bat. Homer scares himself when he looks in a mirror and falls down the stairs, knocking himself out. Marge then locks him in the pantry and she and the kids carry on as normal. Moe and his group of ghouls drag Homer out and tell him to kill his family.

After axing down two wrong doors, Homer finally finds his family and chases them around the hotel. Marge tries to contact [[Chief Wiggum]] for help over the radio, but he assumes that it's over when Marge ends the transmission with "over". Bart then decides to contact Willie for help using his "shinning". When Willie gets the call, he runs to help, dropping his portable television in the snow outside. As he gets inside, Homer axes him in the back, killing Willie. The family then escape out of the hotel and into the snow. Lisa grabs the portable television that Willie dropped and shows it to Homer, getting him to stop his murderous rampage. The family all gathers around Homer to watch the television until they freeze. When the Tony Awards come on the television, the family is horrified that they can't change the channel because they are frozen.

=== Time and Punishment ===
[[File:Time and Punishment - Title Card.png|thumb|right]]
At breakfast, Homer manages to get his hand stuck in the toaster. After finally getting it free, he gets it stuck once more. After freeing it the second time, Homer tries to repair the toaster, rather than buy a new one. When he takes it for a test toast, it takes him back in time to the age of the dinosaurs. Homer remembers advice that his father gave him, not to step on anything. Homer kills a bug and then goes back to the future to find that it's different. [[Ned Flanders]] rules the world and brings in the Simpsons for "re-Neducation" when Homer insults Flanders. They're taken to the [[Re-Neducation Center]] where they go through various brainwashing procedures. When Homer finds that they're going to have a lobotomy, he runs back to the house and uses the toaster again.

This time, Homer accidentally sits on a fish. When he gets back to the future, he finds that the rest of the family are giant. The next time he goes back in time, he sneezes, causing the deaths of every living creature. When he returns to the present time, he finds that the family are rich, have a nice house, and [[Patty]] and [[Selma]] are dead. However, when he finds that donuts don't exist in this world, he goes back in time once again. As he does, it starts to rain donuts outside. The next time he goes to the present, he finds Willie, who starts to tell Homer how he can get back to his own world. [[Maggie]] then axes Willie in the back, killing him, and says that it is a disturbing universe. The next time Homer goes to the past, he started to destroy everything, causing the universe to keep changing when he returns. Eventually, Homer finds that the family is mostly normal, except they have very long tongues. Homer decides that it's close enough and just eats his food.

=== Nightmare Cafeteria ===
[[File:Nightmare Cafeteria - Title Card.png|thumb|left]]
At [[Springfield Elementary School]], the class is playing around. Bart then decides that the class should all turns their desks backwards as a prank. However, only Bart does this, causing him to get detention. Since the detention room is full, Bart is sent to the cafeteria instead. When [[Jimbo]] trips up [[Lunchlady Doris]] and a pot of sauce, he gets covered in it. [[Principal Skinner]] tastes Jimbo and finds him delicious, so he sends Jimbo to help Lunchlady Doris in the kitchen. Jimbo is then cooked and turned into burgers, which the staff find delicious. The next day, [[Üter]] cuts in line to get more food. He is then sent to detention and also turned into food, which is served the next day. [[Lisa]] finds it weird that kids are disappearing and then food named after them is being served. She and Bart go to Marge and ask for help. However, Marge refuses to help, saying that they are old enough to fight their own battles.

Soon, only a handful of students are left and are merged into one class. Bart, Lisa, and [[Milhouse]] decide to escape the classroom, but are then chased by the school's staff. As Willie tries to rescue them, he is axed in the back by Skinner, killing him. The kids end up in the blender room where Milhouse falls in. as Bart and Lisa talk about how something will save them, they also fall into the blender.

=== Closing sequence ===
Bart screams and wakes up to find out it was all a dream. Marge reassures him that there's nothing to worry about except the mysterious fog that turns people inside out. The fog then seeps in through the window and does just that. The family and Willie all begin to do a musical number (to the tune of "[[One]]" from ''{{W|A Chorus Line}}'') about being turned inside out. At the end, [[Santa's Little Helper]] drags Bart offstage by his intestines.

== Production ==
Showrunner [[David Mirkin]] calls the episode the "most intense, disturbing Halloween show" that ''The Simpsons'' has done. The black and white live action footage for ''[[200 Miles to Oregon]]'' was inserted as there was concern from the network executives that the show would be too much to air and they wanted to censor it. Mirkin is heavily against censorship so he added the gag in as a response.<ref name="Mirkin">{{Com|Mirkin, David|Treehouse of Horror V|Sixth|(2005).|link=David Mirkin}}</ref>

The tombstone that says "Amusing Tombstones" on was added in because the writers had gotten tired of coming up with actual humorous tombstone messages.<ref name="Cohen">{{Com|Cohen, David X.|Treehouse of Horror V|Sixth|(2005).|link=David X. Cohen}}</ref>

[[Matt Groening]] originally pitched that the way Homer traveled in time was by jamming his hand in the toaster. However, the other producers rejected the idea as it was "too ridiculous". Groening was also confused by Homer saying that he was the "first non-Brazilian person to travel backwards through time" as he didn't understand it.<ref name="Groening">{{Com|Groening, Matt|Treehouse of Horror V|Sixth|(2005).|link=Matt Groening}}</ref> The original line was "first non-fictional person".<ref name="Cohen"/>

When the Simpson house rapidly changes, one of the original designs was a house made entirely out of squirrels. Background designer [[Lance Wilder]] actually drew the house. However, it got cut. Due to the art taking him a day and a half to draw, he started to use it as a Christmas card design.<ref name="Reardon">{{Com|Reardon, Jim|Treehouse of Horror V|Sixth|(2005).|link=Jim Reardon}}</ref>

An earlier draft of the script had Homer finding out that he had another son called Roy one of the realities.<ref name="Daniels">{{Com|Daniels, Greg|Treehouse of Horror V|Sixth|(2005).|link=Greg Daniels}}</ref> This idea was later used for "[[The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show]]" instead, where Roy was a lodger instead of another son.<ref name="Cohen"/> This idea came around because someone outside of the show had suggested they add in a new character to the family.<ref name="Groening"/>

A cut scene from the "Nightmare Cafeteria" segment had [[Sherri]] and [[Terri]] being cooked and eaten as "Terriaki steak with Sherri sauce". The scene where Bart and Lisa go to Marge was to originally have Homer in as well. Homer told the kids about writing a book of recipes on cooking Milhouse.<ref name="Cohen"/>

The inside out scene was inspired by an episode of ''{{W2|Lights Out|radio show}}'' called "The Dark", where gas seeped into homes and turned people inside out. This scared David Mirkin as a child so he wrote it into the episode. The dance number was then written in to end the show on a lighter note.<ref name="Mirkin"/>

'''Marjorie "Marge" B.'''<ref>"[[Opposites A-Frack]]"</ref> '''Simpson''',<ref>"[[Homer Scissorhands]]"</ref> (née '''Bouvier'''; born March 19<ref name="Exit Through the Kwik-E-Mart">"[[Exit Through the Kwik-E-Mart]]"</ref>), is the happy homemaker and full-time mom of the [[Simpson family]]. With her husband [[Homer]], she has three children: [[Bart]], [[Lisa]], and [[Maggie Simpson]]. Marge is the moralistic force in her family and often provides a grounding voice in the midst of her family's antics by trying to maintain order in the Simpson household. Aside from her duties at home, Marge flirted briefly with a number of careers ranging from police officer to anti-violence activist.

== Biography ==
[[File:Marge Every Simpsons Ever.png|thumb|left|250px]]
[[File:Marge mopping.png|thumb|left|Artwork of Marge from [[season 24]]]]
Marge Bouvier was born on March 19, She is the third born child of the Bouvier family. Marge was raised by her parents, Jacqueline and Clancy. She has a pair of sisters, the joyless twins, [[Patty]] and [[Selma]], both of whom vocally disapprove of Homer.

Marge went on to attend [[Springfield High School]], and in her final year met [[Homer Simpson]]. She was at first wary of Homer, but agreed to go to the prom with him, although she ended up going with [[Artie Ziff]]. However, she regrets going with him because he tried to have sex with her afterwards. Artie takes her home and later on she picks up Homer, walking home, in her car. Marge tells him how much she regretted going to the prom with Artie instead of him, causing Homer to somewhat repair the strap of her dress with the corsage he got her. After that decision, her sisters showed their discontent towards him and ultimately think he was just wrong for her. However, Selma does show she's willing to make a sincere attempt to like Homer for Marge's sake, causing him to have a higher opinion of her. Whereas, Patty never attempted to try and is always on Marge's case to leave Homer, thus it's why she and Homer hate each other.

After the two started dating for several years, Marge discovered she was pregnant with Bart, and she and Homer were married in a small wedding chapel across the state line. Lisa was born soon after, and the couple bought their first house.

She used to leave her children playing at [[Toddlin' Town]] while spending time with other moms, a group she calls [[The Cool Moms]]. They all lost contact to each other, but after many years they re-encountered.<ref>"[[Moms I'd Like to Forget]]"</ref>

Marge is the mother of the [[Simpson family]], who spends most her time doing housework, caring for [[Maggie]], being supportive of and indulging [[Lisa]] and either disciplining [[Bart]] or protecting him from Homer's wrath. Marge is the only member of the family who encourages church attendance. She also appears to have significant athletic ability. She is bilingual, being fully fluent in French.

Despite these tendencies Marge had her fair share of wild escapades throughout the show's history. She was once a [[Springfield Police|police officer]] in [[Springfield]],<ref name="Connection">"[[The Springfield Connection]]"</ref> took [[Dr. Zweig|therapy]] for [[Springfield Airport|flight]] fear,<ref>"[[Fear of Flying]]"</ref> was jailed for [[Kwik-E-Mart|shoplifting]],<ref name="Chains">"[[Marge in Chains]]"</ref> became a gambling addict,<ref>"[[$pringfield (Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Legalized Gambling)]]"</ref> showed alcoholic tendencies,<ref>"[[Co-Dependent's Day]]"</ref> was an unwilling participant in a cross-country police chase,<ref>"[[Marge on the Lam]]"</ref> overdosed on steroids,<ref name="The Strong Arms of the Ma">"[[The Strong Arms of the Ma]]"</ref> cheated in a cooking competition<ref name="Oven">"[[All's Fair in Oven War]]"</ref> and developed amnesia.<ref>"[[Regarding Margie]]"</ref>

== Character ==
[[File:Margefolder.png|thumbnail|left|Marge's character folder in the Hall of Records on The Simpsons website.]]
=== Personality ===
Marge is a foil to her reckless and impulsive husband. Nevertheless, she is a good wife to Homer and a caring mother to her children. Having high morals and a tendency to be a 'wet blanket' as Homer puts it. She dislikes and tries to avoid taking any sort of risk, can be fearful of new things and set her life to a routine to the point she actually wore a groove into the carpet going from the kitchen to the bedroom and the basement from her constant housework. She tends to consider anything that isn't completely plain to be amazing or exotic, even if they're not all that special. Such as deviled ham opposed to normal ham and buttered noodles opposed to unbuttered noodles. She has also been depicted as a killjoy and attempt to stop things other characters otherwise find fun. She always believes she has a good reason for doing so even if it's only her who has a problem. She once [[Itchy and Scratchy]] banned because Maggie injured Homer after imitating a scene from the cartoon.<ref>"[[Itchy & Scratchy & Marge]]"</ref> She tried to demolish a burlesque house even though it hurt no one and no one else wanted it destroyed,<ref>"[[Bart After Dark]]"</ref> and she outright says if something isn't to her taste, no one else should be allowed to enjoy it.<ref>"[[The Great Wife Hope]]"</ref> Homer sums up his wife when he tells her: "If it was up to [Marge], all we'd ever do is work and go to church."

=== Physical Appearance ===
Marge usually wears a strapless green dress, red shoes, tall blue hair and an orange pearl necklace. The pearl necklace is a family heirloom and she is seen to have a big drawer full of them.<ref>"[[Homer the Vigilante]]"</ref> [[Lisa]] also wears a pearl necklace, but with white pearls. Doctor Hibbert revealed she has webbed feet.<ref name="Chains"/> She remarked she used to have a "perfect 26-26-26" figure.<ref>"[[Husbands and Knives]]"</ref>

==== Hair ====
[[File:Marge hair down.png|thumb|Marge's hair]]
As a teen, Marge had waist length hair she always wore down, but got the idea to wear it in her trademark beehive for senior prom;<ref>"[[The Way We Was]]"</ref> This is sometimes contradicted by recent flashbacks showing Marge as a child, where she is portrayed with her hair worn tall. Her hair is thick enough for her to keep objects like the family savings in it.<ref>"[[Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire]]"</ref> Her hair is once shown close to her knees, consistent with the logic a lot of hair would be needed to create her tall beehive.<ref>"[[Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious]]"</ref> It was revealed by Homer Marge dyes her hair with blue dye #56, stating ''"She's been gray as a mule since she was seventeen."'' <ref>"[[Secrets of a Successful Marriage]]"</ref> Because of her unusually large hairstyle, her height is reported to be 8'6", as noted by Apu.<ref name="Chains"/> Her hair was blue before she met Homer and was brunette at one time due to Marge ironing a piece of her hair for a long time.<ref>"[[The Way We Weren't]]"</ref>

=== Political Views ===
Politically, Marge generally aligns with the Democratic Party. She once mentions she voted for Jimmy Carter ("twice" according to [[Lisa]]),supported the candidacy of their state's progressive governor [[Mary Bailey]], and also claimed to have been extremely depressed when Lyndon B. Johnson died. She, however, appears to be a Conservative Democrat, unlike the Left-Winged Lisa.

=== Talents ===
Marge is a very talented painter. When she was a teenager she had an intense crush on [[Ringo Starr]] and painted a large number of portraits of him. She also wrote to him, but only received a reply 25 years later. After Homer discovered her old paintings, Lisa encouraged Marge to enroll in an art contest where her portrait of a drunk Homer asleep on the couch won a local art competition. She was hired by [[Mr. Burns]] to do a portrait of him. After many attempts, she almost gave up until a belated response from [[Ringo Starr]], (stating she had talent), inspired her to continue. The resulting portrait won even Mr. Burns' praise, a massive feat in itself, and was placed at the [[Springfield Art Museum]]s Burn's Wing.<ref>"[[Brush with Greatness]]"</ref>

Marge is also a very talented cook. She once bought a pretzel business, which flourished with the aid of the [[Springfield Mafia|mafia]].<ref name="The Twisted World of Marge Simpson">"[[The Twisted World of Marge Simpson]]"</ref> She entered various cooking challenges, although circumstances such as vengeful competitors and overheated ovens cause her to lose and once, sabotage other competitors. Marge says she feeds the family on twelve dollars a week, using sawdust to pad Homer's food.<ref name="Oven"/> Generally she is regarded as a very good cook, despite the unusual fact she knows of fewer than eight spices and apparently constructs very bad ice cream sundaes. She is especially renowned for her pork chops, Homer's favorite dish. She once worked in [[Au Naturel]], an erotic bakery in [[Springfield]].<ref name="Pies">"[[Sex, Pies and Idiot Scrapes]]"</ref>

=== Jobs ===
Marge had many jobs, most of which lasted a short period of time, these include:
*{{W|Carhop}} at [[Berger's Burgers]]<ref>"[[Homer's Odyssey]]"</ref><ref>"[[I Married Marge]]"</ref>
*Pretzel vendor<ref name="The Twisted World of Marge Simpson"/>
*4th grade schoolteacher both homeschooling<ref>"[[Whacking Day]]"</ref> and as a strikebreaker<ref>"[[The PTA Disbands]]"</ref>
*[[Springfield Police|Policewoman]]<ref name="Connection"/>
*Trade Show Model <ref>"[[Large Marge]]"</ref>
*Bodybuilder<ref name="The Strong Arms of the Ma"/>
*Real estate agent for [[Red Blazer Realty]]<ref>"[[Realty Bites]]"</ref>
*[[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant|Power plant]] employee<ref>"[[Marge Gets a Job]]"</ref>
*Baker for an Erotic Bakery <ref name="Pies"/>

=== Future ===
In the future, Marge leaves Homer after he blew the family savings on an underwater home. She dates [[Krusty the Clown]]. Homer tries to win Marge's love back by beating him up, and is beaten up himself. Marge gets back together with Homer.<ref>"[[Future-Drama]]"</ref>
=== Treehouse of Horror ===
In "[[Treehouse of Horror VII]]" segment "The Thing and I", it is known Marge gave birth to Siamese twins: Bart and [[Hugo Simpson|Hugo]]. Hugo was thought evil, so he was kept in the house's attic. Hugo attempts to sew him and Bart back together, but he is stopped by Doctor Hibbert. They discover Bart's scar is on the other side, so he is the evil twin after all and is kept in the attic instead, while Hugo has dinner with his family.

== Behind the Laughter ==
Marge Simpson is voiced by [[Julie Kavner]], who became famous for being on the TV series, ''[[Rhoda]]''.

The episode "[[That '90s Show]]" (season 19, 2007) contradicted much of the established back-story; for example, it was revealed Marge and Homer were childless in the early 1990s although past episodes suggested Bart and Lisa were born in the 1980s.

As with many Simpsons characters, Marge's age changes to serve the story.
=== Creation ===
[[File:MG01frame10.png|thumb|The first appearances of Marge and Lisa Simpson in "[[Good Night]]", a short from ''[[The Tracey Ullman Show]]''.]]
[[Matt Groening]] first conceived the Simpson family in the lobby of [[James L. Brooks]]' office. He had been called in to pitch a series of animated shorts, and intended to present his ''Life in Hell'' series. When he realized animating ''Life in Hell'' would require him to rescind publication rights for his life's work, Groening decided to go in another direction. He hurriedly sketched out his version of a dysfunctional family, and named the characters after various members of his own family, with Marge being the name of his mother. Marge made her debut with the rest of the Simpsons clan on 19 April 1987 in the [[The Simpsons shorts|Tracey Ullman short]] "[[Good Night]]".<ref name="americasfirstfamily">{{cite video|people=BBC|year=2000|title='The Simpsons': America's First Family (6 minute edit for the season 1 DVD)|url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0250735/|format=DVD|location=UK|publisher=20th Century Fox}}</ref>

In ''The Simpsons'' Season Four DVD commentary, Matt Groening states the original idea behind Marge's hair was to conceal large rabbit ears. The gag was intended to be revealed in the final episode of the series, but was scrapped early on due to inconsistencies.<ref>[[Matt Groening]], The Complete Fourth Season DVD (2004) commentary for episode Selma's Choice. 20th Century Fox</ref>

=== Cultural Influence ===
==== Merchandising ====
Marge is featured in much Simpsons-related merchandise, including T-shirts, baseball caps, stickers, cardboard stand-ups, refrigerator magnets, key rings, buttons, dolls, posters and figurines. She appeared in all of The Simpsons video games, including [[The Simpsons Game]]. Besides the television series, Marge regularly appears in issues of Simpsons Comics. Marge also plays a role in [[The Simpsons Ride]], at Universal Studios Florida and Hollywood.

==== Playboy Shoot ====
[[File:Aye Carumba! Marge Simpson poses for Playboy cover.jpg|thumb|The Playboy cover]]
In October 2009, it was announced Marge would be featured on the front cover of the November issue of Playboy. The edition was first published on October 16, 2009. The cover and a three-page picture spread, as well as a story inside entitled ''The Devil in Marge Simpson'', is a celebration of the 20th anniversary of The Simpsons, but is also part of a plan to appeal to younger readers. Chief executive of Playboy Enterprises, Scott Flanders, said the cover and centerfold were "somewhat tongue-in-cheek".

=== Foreign dubs ===
Like in the original version in English, Marge is voiced by a female actress in several languages. However, in some dubs like in the Czech, Marge is voiced by a male actor instead of a female.

== Trivia ==
{{Images|Marge}}
*Marge has hazel-colored eyes.
*Bouvier is the surname of Jackie Kennedy-Onassis.
*She is left-handed, but she usually uses her right hand for everything to look normal, so she is ambidextrous.
*Her shoe size is 13AA.
*She has aviophobia (fear of flying) and probably also acrophobia (fear of heights).
*As shown in "[[Kill Gil, Volumes I & II]]", Marge has trouble saying "no". As shown when she was about 7, Patty and Selma told her to hide their cigarettes in her dollhouse. She said no and they stuffed her into the dollhouse.
*Marge also needs to wear glasses.<ref>"[[The Boys of Bummer]]"</ref>
*Marge's middle name is Jacqueline, another nod to Jackie Kennedy-Onassis.
*Marge has some sort of crush on [[Lenny Leonard]], referenced in many episodes.
*Her hair color is blue dye #56.
*She has no lines in "[[Krusty Gets Kancelled]]".
=== [[List of birthdays|Birthday date]] ===
Marge originally said she was born on the same day as [[Randy Quaid]], October 1.<ref>"[[Marge Gamer]]"</ref> However, Lisa showed a calendar saying her birthday was on March 19.<ref name="Exit Through the Kwik-E-Mart"/> The latter was proven true at the 2015 San Francisco Comic-Con.

Wikisimpsons:Canon

2022-12-11T19:06:57Z

Monster Bash: /* Episodes */

{{Policy}}
<center><big>'''For discussions on the canonicity of episodes, please see [[Wikisimpsons talk:Canon|the talk page]]. Feel free to add to the discussion there!'''</big></center>

'''Canon''' is the official story of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' universe. Due to the episodic nature of ''The Simpsons'' and a floating timeline, some episodes are considered non-canon because they do not match up with the existing and future story and lore.

== Floating timeline ==
A {{W|floating timeline}} is often used in media where the characters do not age. The floating timeline is used to keep stories relevant for modern times without having the characters age up. Since ''The Simpsons'' has been airing since 1989 without the characters aging, the timeline adjusts to keep up with the current year. As such, characters have been different ages in different time periods. For example, [[Homer]] has been a young adult in the 1990s, as seen in the [[season 19]] episode "[[That '90s Show]]" and a teenager in the 1990s, as seen in the [[season 32]] episode "[[Do PizzaBots Dream of Electric Guitars?]]". These episodes are considered canon, just canon at different time periods.

== Separate canons ==
''The Simpsons'' executive producer [[Matt Selman]] has said that he considers episodes to take place in "its own little universe". This allows them to write about an "aspect of Springfield that hasn’t been examined before."<ref>[https://www.ign.com/articles/matt-selman-simpsons-hit-and-run-remake IGN - "The Simpsons: Matt Selman On Continuity And His Support For a Simpsons Hit & Run Remake"]</ref> This means that there's no official canon within the show.

However, some events from episodes do carry forward to other episodes. Major changes happen in the show that continue to other episodes. Big examples include [[Maude Flanders]]' death in the [[season 11]] episode "[[Alone Again, Natura-Diddily]]", the [[Ned Flanders]] and [[Edna Krabappel]] relationship in the [[season 22]] episode "[[The Ned-liest Catch]]", and [[Comic Book Guy]]'s marriage to [[Kumiko Albertson]] in the [[season 25]] episode "[[Married to the Blob]]". These permanent changes imply that there is a canon to ''The Simpsons''.

== Anthology episodes ==
[[:Category:Anthology episodes|Anthology episodes]] are episodes made up of multiple mini-stories. An example of these is the long-running [[Treehouse of Horror series|''Treehouse of Horror'' series]]. Most anthology episodes have a framing device used for the characters to tell the stories. These parts of the episodes are considered canon whilst the stories are considered fictional within the universe. Anthology episodes without a framing device, such as a majority of the Treehouse of Horror episodes, and the [[season 31]] episode "[[Thanksgiving of Horror]]", should all be considered non-canon.

== Comic stories and books ==
A majority of comic stories and books fit in with ''The Simpsons'' universe. However, episode canon comes before comic and book canon, so if an episode contradicts a comic story or book, the episode is considered canon but the comic or book isn't.

== Video games ==
All video games should be considered non-canon to the franchise.

'''Marcia Karen Wallace''' (November 1, 1942 – October 25, [[2013]]) was an American actress and comedian. She voiced [[Edna Krabappel]] among other minor characters on ''[[The Simpsons]]''. Wallace died of a combination of breast cancer, pneumonia, and sepsis after 25 seasons on the show.<ref>[https://twitter.com/YeardleySmith/status/394100399373705216 Yeardley Smith's Tweet]</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/frankdecaroshow/status/393987742763585536 Frank DeCaro's Tweet]</ref><ref>[http://www.deadline.com/2013/10/r-i-p-marcia-wallace/#utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook Deadline - R.I.P. Marcia Wallace]</ref><ref>[http://www.contactmusic.com/story/pneumonia-and-breast-cancer-contributed-to-marcia-wallace-s-death_3969397 ContactMusic.com - The Simpsons | Pneumonia And Breast Cancer Contributed To Marcia Wallace's Death]</ref>

She also performed for the special live show ''[[The Simpsons Take the Bowl]]''.

== Biography ==
Wallace was best known for her roles as Carol Kester Bondurant, the receptionist for Bob Newhart (and dentist Jerry) on the 1972 television series ''The Bob Newhart Show'', and as the voice of [[Edna Krabappel]] on ''[[The Simpsons]]'', for which she won an Emmy for Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Voice-Over Performance in 1992.

She was an occasional celebrity panelist on ''Match Game'' and played "Mrs. Carruthers" in a few episodes of the ABC sitcom ''Full House''. She also played the maid on the short-lived TV series ''That's My Bush!'', and appeared in episode #227 of ''Bewitched''("Laugh, Clown, Laugh"), as Darrin's secretary, in 1971.

Wallace was a breast cancer survivor and activist who [http://www.corporateartists.com/speaker_marcia_wallace.html lectures on the subject]. On January 27, 2007, Marcia won the ''Gilda Radner Courage Award'' from Roswell Park Cancer Institute for helping educate Americans about the importance of early cancer detection and inspiring others through her 20 years as a breast cancer survivor.

Her book, ''Don't Look Back We're Not Going That Way'', is a biography that recounts the early detection of her breast cancer, the loss of her husband Denny to cancer, her nervous breakdown, her single motherhood and other experiences.

=== Death ===
Marcia Wallace died from complications of a combination of breast cancer, pneumonia, and sepsis on October 25, [[2013]], aged 70. She died at 9 p.m. at her house in [[Los Angeles]].<ref>[http://www.deadline.com/2013/10/r-i-p-marcia-wallace/#utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=facebook Deadline - "'Simpsons' Star Marcia Wallace Dead at 70"]</ref> Executive producer and showrunner [[Al Jean]] has stated that he plans to retire Edna Krabappel as Wallace is "irreplaceable".<ref>[http://variety.com/2013/tv/news/marcia-wallace-star-of-the-bob-newhart-show-and-voice-of-mrs-krabappel-dies-at-71-1200764197/ Variety - "Marcia Wallace, Star of 'The Bob Newhart Show' and Voice of Mrs. Krabappel, Dies at 70"]</ref>

Following her death on the 25th, {{W|Frank DeCaro}} tweeted "Our dear sweet friend Marcia Wallace has died. A walking lesson in comedy. Long live Carol Kester & Edna Krabappel!". This was later backed up with a tweet from [[Yeardley Smith]] and [[Ricky Gervais]], along with many more tweets from people showing their condolences. "[[Four Regrettings and a Funeral]]", the first episode to air following her death, was dedicated to her memory. In addition, the episode's [[chalkboard gag]] was "We'll really miss you Mrs. K."

Marcia Wallace was posthumously credited for the [[season 29]] episode "[[Left Behind]]", where archive audio of her from "[[Bart Gets a "Z"]]" was used, for the [[season 31]] episode "[[Todd, Todd, Why Hast Thou Forsaken Me?]]", where an archive audio of her "Ha!" was used, and for a [[season 32]] episode "[[Diary Queen]]" as guest cast.

'''Donald Trump''' is an American businessman.

== History ==
When a yo-yo craze hit [[Springfield Elementary School]], [[Bart]] proved to be very good at yo-yo tricks. [[Homer]] told [[Marge]] that soon he would be able to quit his job and "live off the boy", but [[Marge]] challenged him to name one person who had gotten rich by doing yo-yo tricks. After considering Donald Trump, [[Arnold Palmer]] and [[Bill Cosby]], Homer realized to his chagrin that there wasn't any such person.<ref>"[[Bart the Lover]]"</ref>

A homeless man at the [[Bumtown Soup Kitchen]] called [[Seymour Skinner]] Donald Trump, right after [[Edna Krabappel]] stood him up.<ref>''[[Bart vs. the One-Man School]]''</ref> When [[Lisa]] came to pick up [[Marge]], [[Charles Heathbar]] said that he wanted to tell to his wife "you're fired!" When Marge and Lisa didn't laugh, he said that he had imitated Donald Trump and if they knew who he was, they would have laughed. Marge and Lisa then told him that they knew who he was, and he told them that he did not believe them as the joke was perfect.<ref>"[[Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife]]"</ref>

During a balcony scene in Italy Homer starts making gestures and poses, which cause Lisa to ask him "not to imitate [[Benito Mussolini]]". Homer then says he was actually imitating Donald Trump.<ref>"[[The Italian Bob]]"</ref>

In [[Lisa]]'s fantasy, she turned Trump into an orange {{W|Troll doll}}.<ref>"[[The Cad and the Hat]]"</ref>

Many of the people in the celebrity executive assistant support group had worked for Donald Trump.<ref>"[[Frinkcoin]]"</ref>

== Non-canon ==
{{Noncanon}}
Trump served as [[President of the United States]], immediately preceding [[Lisa Simpson]]. While in office, Trump evidently made some bad financial decisions, leaving the Simpson administration with "quite a budget crunch".<ref>"[[Bart to the Future]]"</ref>

Homer nominated Trump for the {{W|Ice Bucket Challenge}}.<ref>''[[Simpsons Ice Bucket Challenge]]''</ref>

He is seen tweeting and watching TV from his bed at the [[White House]].<ref>''[[Donald Trump's First 100 Days In Office]]''</ref>

Trump was at [[Trump Hotel]] where he tried to bribe [[Robert Mueller]] with $750 million. Mueller rejected the bribe and tried to arrest Trump so Trump tried to pardon himself. When that didn't work, he tried to bribe Mueller again with a judge position on {{W|Miss Universe}}. When that didn't work, Mueller left. [[Carmen Yulín Cruz|A maid]] then entered the room to do housekeeping and Trump told her that there was no money and he was never there then left the room.<ref>''[[Mueller Meets Trump]]''</ref>

Trump decided that he had to take a look in the mirror and decided to get his faults off his chest. When he started getting his faults off his chest, he couldn't stop. He got rid of all his guilt doing this. He then called up [[Vladimir Putin]] and told him to leave the USA alone. He then woke up and realized it was all a terrible dream. He then decided to tweet what was deep in his heart, saying that {{Ch|Alec Baldwin}} wears a hairpiece.<ref>''[[A Tale of Two Trumps]]''</ref>

When future [[Bart]] went back in time, he told the Simpsons that Donald Trump would become president.<ref>"[[Lisa the Boy Scout]]"</ref>

== Behind the Laughter ==
In real life, Trump was {{W|President-elect of the United States|elected President}} in the {{W|United States presidential election, 2016|2016 election}} and served as the 45th [[President of the United States]] from January 20, 2017 to January 20, 2021.

|duration= 1 minute, 51 seconds
|appearance= "[[Clown in the Dumps]]"

The '''Don Hertzfeldt couch gag''' is a couch gag created by animator [[Don Hertzfeldt]].

== Plot ==
Homer arrives at the couch and turns on the TV with a futuristic remote, which shows the date of the episode's premiere (September 28, [[2014]]). Homer gets angry and tries to change it, but reverts time to April 19, [[1987]], the airdate of the [[The Simpsons shorts]], which changes his appearance to that of in the shorts. He then clumsily slaps on the remote, sending him further and further in time, before stopping at the "sun-date" of Septembar 36.4, 10,535, in the episode #164.775.7. Homer, now named Homar, calls his family for a meeting at the kitchen cube. All of the family members are now just horribly grotesque copies of themselves, who can do nothing but repeat their catchphrases. Homar remembers the times he had with his family (specifically episodes #20.254, #37.211.4 and #100.411.2), in all of which the characters' designs change rapidly, but they were still a happy, stable family. Homar takes a look at his current family and [[D'oh|d'ohs]], knowing that nothing will be the same again.

"'''Clown in the Dumps'''" is the first episode of [[season 26]] of ''[[The Simpsons]]'' and the five-hundred and fifty-third episode overall. It originally aired on September 28, [[2014]]. The episode was written by [[Joel H. Cohen]] and directed by [[Steven Dean Moore]]. It guest stars [[David Hyde Pierce]] as {{Ch|David Hyde Pierce|himself}}, [[Sarah Silverman]] as {{Ch|Sarah Silverman|herself}}, [[Jeff Ross]] as {{Ch|Jeff Ross|himself}}, [[Kelsey Grammer]] as [[Sideshow Bob]], [[Jackie Mason]] as [[Rabbi Krustofsky]] and [[Don Hertzfeldt]] as Futuristic "Sampsans" Creatures.

== Synopsis ==
{{Desc|When [[Hyman Krustofsky]] dies during a comedy cable channel's roast of his son, [[Krusty]], he decides to retire. [[Lisa]] becomes worried about Homer's deteriorating health.}}

== Plot ==
[[Krusty the Clown]] appears on a comedy roast, which offends him. He seeks the advice of his father, [[Rabbi Krustofsky]], on whether he is funny, but the Rabbi does not agree with him, and suddenly dies. Believing that nobody finds him funny any more, Krusty quits his show.

Bart attempts to reinspire Krusty by showing him old episodes of the show, but he picks up on the repetitive nature of his own jokes, and binge drinks in anger. He passes out and has a vision of himself in Jewish Heaven, where he meets [[Rodney Dangerfield]]. Rabbi Krustofsky then appears and tells Krusty that Jews do not believe in Heaven, and thus he should do more to help others. An act of kindness does not seem to make him happier, but Bart takes Krusty to the synagogue, where Rabbi Krustofsky's favorite Rabbi recites Krusty's jokes on religion. Krusty therefore deduces that his father did find him funny, and sees him again in Jewish Heaven, where [[Jesus]] turns Dangerfield's water into a Bloody Mary.

The death of Krusty's father causes [[Lisa]] to become obsessed with protecting her own father, [[Homer]], from getting hurt. She wraps him in bubble wrap, which ends up saving his life when [[Otto]]'s school bus plows into the garden.

== Production ==
This episode was dedicated in memory of [[Louis Castellaneta]], the father of [[Dan Castellaneta]], who died in August 2014, aged 99.<ref>[http://www.suntimes.com/entertainment/people/29398287-421/father-of-homer-simpson-voice-actor-dead-at-99.html#.VCkynfmSx8E Father of 'Homer Simpson' voice actor dead at 99 - Chicago Sun-Times]</ref>

=== Couch gag ===
The episode featured the longest [[couch gag]] to date, directed, written, animated, and produced by independent animator [[Don Hertzfeldt]]. The surreal sequence, projecting the fate of The Simpsons deep into the future, was described by Spin Magazine as "mind-melting," and "two of the strangest minutes of television ever to air on a major network during prime time."

== Reception ==
The episode received 8.5 million viewers on its premiere, the highest for a season premiere since [[season 20]]'s "[[Sex, Pies and Idiot Scrapes]]", and the highest rated episode since the ninth episode of [[season 25]], "[[Steal This Episode]]", from January 2014. It also received a 3.9 18-49 rating.<ref>[http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2014/09/29/tv-ratings-sunday-once-upon-a-time-the-simpsons-family-guy-return-way-up-csi-premieres-down-madam-secretary-falls/307745/ TVbytheNumbers - TV Ratings Sunday: 'Once Upon A Time', 'The Simpsons' & 'Family Guy' Return Way Up, 'CSI' Premieres Down, 'Madam Secretary' Falls]</ref>

The episode received mixed reviews from critics. [http://www.avclub.com The A.V. Club] awarded it a "C", saying "''The Simpsons'' returns for its 26th season with a nondescript, anti-climactic premiere whose overstuffed cameos and would-be big character death amount to little more than a disspiriting confirmation that its best days are, indeed, long gone", and that "this inability to weave the A- and B-stories into a unified episode has become pretty glaring", before praising the episode's [[Don Hertzfeldt]] couch gag, calling it "brilliant stuff".<ref>[http://www.avclub.com/tvclub/simpsons-clown-dumps-209794 The A.V. Club - "The Simpsons: "Clown In The Dumps""]</ref> [http://www.denofgeek.us Den of Geek] said it was "a bittersweet episode" and picked up on how "''The Simpsons'' always make you care for their characters. There is a sweetness inherent in the most egregious traits", and in the end awarding it 4/5. [http://www.bubbleblabber.com BubbleBlabber]'s review started out with anger at "[...] which character died. I'll tell you who: Rabbi Fucking Krustofsky – the guy I predicted would die in this episode over FOUR months ago", but then ultimatally praised the episode for "the amount it resembled ''Simpsons'' episodes of the classic era", then saying that "[...] all these elements [how it resembled its classic era, its cast and couch gag] nevertheless combined for a fantastic premiere to the show's 26th season", and in the end, awarded it 8.5.<ref>[http://www.bubbleblabber.com/review-simpsons-clown-dumps/ BubbleBlabber - "Review: The Simpsons – 'Clown in the Dumps'"]</ref>

The [[NoHomers.net|NoHomers]] forum users were less sympathetic to the episode, which as of late, holds a majority 2/5 on a poll, with one saying it was "a mediocre, forgettable episode", another criticizing how "[the] character death [being] way overhyped was [the] biggest flaw," yet another praising the episode saying "[the] couch gag was great" and "the ending was sweet." <ref>[http://www.nohomers.net/showthread.php?105897-Rate-and-Review-quot-Clown-in-the-Dumps-quot-%28SABF20%29 NoHomers - Rate and Review: "Clown in the Dumps" (SABF20)]</ref>

=== Couch gag ===
The episode featured the longest [[couch gag]] to date, directed, written, animated, and produced by independent animator [[Don Hertzfeldt]]. The surreal sequence, projecting the fate of The Simpsons deep into the future, was described by Spin Magazine as "mind-melting," and "two of the strangest minutes of television ever to air on a major network during prime time."

== Reception ==
The episode received 8.5 million viewers on its premiere, the highest for a season premiere since [[season 20]]'s "[[Sex, Pies and Idiot Scrapes]]", and the highest rated episode since the ninth episode of [[season 25]], "[[Steal This Episode]]", from January 2014. It also received a 3.9 18-49 rating.<ref>[http://tvbythenumbers.zap2it.com/2014/09/29/tv-ratings-sunday-once-upon-a-time-the-simpsons-family-guy-return-way-up-csi-premieres-down-madam-secretary-falls/307745/ TVbytheNumbers - TV Ratings Sunday: 'Once Upon A Time', 'The Simpsons' & 'Family Guy' Return Way Up, 'CSI' Premieres Down, 'Madam Secretary' Falls]</ref>

The episode received mixed reviews from critics. [http://www.avclub.com The A.V. Club] awarded it a "C", saying "''The Simpsons'' returns for its 26th season with a nondescript, anti-climactic premiere whose overstuffed cameos and would-be big character death amount to little more than a disspiriting confirmation that its best days are, indeed, long gone", and that "this inability to weave the A- and B-stories into a unified episode has become pretty glaring", before praising the episode's [[Don Hertzfeldt]] couch gag, calling it "brilliant stuff".<ref>[http://www.avclub.com/tvclub/simpsons-clown-dumps-209794 The A.V. Club - "The Simpsons: "Clown In The Dumps""]</ref> [http://www.denofgeek.us Den of Geek] said it was "a bittersweet episode" and picked up on how "''The Simpsons'' always make you care for their characters. There is a sweetness inherent in the most egregious traits", and in the end awarding it 4/5. [http://www.bubbleblabber.com BubbleBlabber]'s review started out with anger at "[...] which character died. I'll tell you who: Rabbi Fucking Krustofsky – the guy I predicted would die in this episode over FOUR months ago", but then ultimatally praised the episode for "the amount it resembled ''Simpsons'' episodes of the classic era", then saying that "[...] all these elements [how it resembled its classic era, its cast and couch gag] nevertheless combined for a fantastic premiere to the show's 26th season", and in the end, awarded it 8.5.<ref>[http://www.bubbleblabber.com/review-simpsons-clown-dumps/ BubbleBlabber - "Review: The Simpsons – 'Clown in the Dumps'"]</ref>

The [[NoHomers.net|NoHomers]] forum users were less sympathetic to the episode, which as of late, holds a majority 2/5 on a poll, with one saying it was "a mediocre, forgettable episode", another criticizing how "[the] character death [being] way overhyped was [the] biggest flaw," yet another praising the episode saying "[the] couch gag was great" and "the ending was sweet." <ref>[http://www.nohomers.net/showthread.php?105897-Rate-and-Review-quot-Clown-in-the-Dumps-quot-%28SABF20%29 NoHomers - Rate and Review: "Clown in the Dumps" (SABF20)]</ref>

'''''The Good, the Bart, and the Loki''''' is a [[Marvel]] themed special ''[[The Simpsons]]'' short. It was released on [[Disney+]] on July 7, [[2021]]. The short was written by [[Elisabeth Kiernan Averick]], [[Jessica Conrad]], [[John Frink]], [[Al Jean]], and [[Jeff Westbrook]] and was directed by [[David Silverman]]. It guest stars [[Tom Hiddleston]] as {{ap|Loki|Marvel Comics}}.

== Synopsis ==
{{desc|{{ap|Loki|Marvel Comics}} has been banished from [[Asgard]] and finds himself in Springfield, where he teams up with [[Bart Simpson]].}}

== Plot ==
On the {{W|Bifröst}}, the rainbow bridge outside of [[Asgard]], {{ap|Odin|Marvel Comics}} sentences {{ap|Loki|Marvel Comics}} to banishment on [[Earth]]. When Loki asks where he will be going to, Odin tells Loki that he will be sent to [[Springfield]], to Loki's horror. Loki is then kicked off the bridge by Odin and he falls to Springfield, landing next to [[Bart's treehouse]]. Bart hears the noise and asks Loki if he can help him. Loki then asks Bart if he knows what it's like to have a distant, abusive father and a blond-haired, perfect sibling. Bart then tells Loki that he has just the family for him.

Loki has dinner with the [[Simpson family]] when [[Homer]] asks him if he can turn one pork chop into two. Loki does this and Homer begins to worship him. [[Lisa]] then says that the world doesn't need more pork chops, so Bart tells Loki to get rid of Lisa. Loki sends Lisa to Asgard, where she ends up in the same room as [[Fenris Wolf]] and [[Mjolnir]], {{ap|Thor|Marvel Comics}}'s hammer. Lisa accidentally knocks Mjolnir off the wall and decides to put it back. However, when she touches the hammer, she gains the power of Thor. Lisa then flies back to Springfield to confront Loki.

When Lisa arrived back in Springfield, she gathered the [[Springfield Avengers]] together. However, she quickly realizes that they are useless and fights Loki herself. Loki begins to protest, in Bart's voice, as Loki had changed his and Bart's appearances around. Lisa then throws the fake Loki off into the distance as everyone cheers. That night, Loki changes back into himself whilst in bed. Homer then walks into the room and kisses Loki good night and asks him to turn [[Ned Flanders]] into pork chops. Loki then goes to sleep, happy that he has a functional family.

The credits then start, with a picture of [[Comic Book Guy]], as [[Thanos]], activating {{W|The Blip}} on the Springfield Avengers. The next picture has Homer trying to lift up Mjolnir, unsuccessfully. The first mid-credits scene then starts, where [[Barney]] is surprised that [[Moe]] gave the barflies drinks on the house. Loki then reveals himself to be Moe in disguise, and tells the barflies that they are killing themselves with beer, and that the bottles are ending up in the ocean and killing the planet. Barney says that it's still worth it.

The next credits picture has [[Santa's Little Helper]] as [[Rocket Raccoon]], [[Marge]] as [[Gamora]], Homer as [[Drax the Destroyer]], and Bart's treehouse as [[Groot]]. The picture after that has Barney hanging up his wet [[Iron Man]] suit on a clothesline. The final picture has [[Maggie]] watching a [[Kirk]] and [[Luann]] as [[Vision]] and [[Scarlet Witch|Wanda Maximoff]] on TV. Another credits scene then starts, where [[Ralph]], as the [[Hulk]], tells Loki that he isn't nice. Ralph then picks up Loki and smashes him around.

The final credits scene has Loki being brought before [[Ravonna Renslayer]]. Renslayer lists all the crimes that Loki has committed, including tampering with the sacred timeline. As Renslayer goes on, Loki gets more and more bored.

== Production ==
''The Good, the Bart, and the Loki'' was announced on June 30, 2021.<ref>[https://twitter.com/disneyplus/status/1410236709351018502 Disney+ on Twitter - "The Good, the Bart, and the Loki"]</ref> [[Tom Hiddleston]], the actor for Loki in the {{W|Marvel Cinematic Universe}} was also confirmed to be voicing Loki in the short.<ref>[https://www.ign.com/articles/the-simpsons-marvel-the-good-the-bart-and-the-loki-disney-plus IGN - "Marvel-Themed The Simpsons Short Coming to Disney+"]</ref>

The short was started on April 2, 2021, with the first board reel being finished a week later. Animation for the short started at the beginning of May.<ref>[https://www.instagram.com/p/CQy4e_4Dh6L/ David Silverman on Instagram - "The Good, the Bart, and the Loki"]</ref> The Lisa vs. Loki fight was originally intended to take place at [[Springfield Elementary School]]. It was later changed to the Simpsons' front lawn.<ref>[https://twitter.com/tubatron/status/1412911201479131136 David Silverman on Twitter - "Lisa vs. Loki confrontation"]</ref>

The music in the short was mostly from the ''Marvel'' films. President of Marvel Studios [[Kevin Feige]] allowed the producers of ''The Simpsons'' to use the ''Avengers'' music.<ref>[https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/simpsons-loki-crossover-short-over-130000052.html Yahoo - "'The Simpsons' and 'Loki' Crossover Short Has Over 100 Marvel References in 4 Minutes"]</ref>

Lisa becoming Thor was inspired by the news that {{W|Jane Foster}} would become Thor in ''{{W|Thor: Love and Thunder}}''. The final scene of the short, taking place at the [[Time Variance Authority]], was inspired by the first episode of ''{{W2|Loki|TV series}}'', which aired on June 9, 2021, less than a month before the short was released. ''The Simpsons'' executive producer [[James L. Brooks]] decided that they had to do something based on ''Loki'' and they finished the scene in a week.<ref>[https://variety.com/2021/tv/news/the-simpsons-loki-marvel-al-jean-1235013092/ Variety - "How 'The Simpsons' Used 'Loki' to Invade the Marvel Cinematic Universe"]</ref>

Treehouse of Horror series

[[File:Treehouse of Horror (Title Card).png|thumb|250px]]

'''''The Simpsons'' Halloween episodes''', more commonly known as '''''Treehouse of Horror'' series''', are an annual tradition in which there is a special Halloween episode consisting of three separate, self-contained pieces. These pieces usually involve the family in some horror, science fiction, or supernatural setting; they always take place outside the normal continuity of the show (and are therefore considered to be non-canon), and completely abandon any pretense of being realistic.

[[File:HangingCouch.png|thumb|250px|The Couch gag in "[[Treehouse of Horror VI]]".]]

Regular Simpsons characters play humorous special roles, occasionally being killed in gruesome ways by zombies, monsters, or even each other. Groundskeeper Willie has died many times in the Treehouse of Horror episodes, mostly by being [[Treehouse of Horror V|stuck in the back with an axe]], impaled by a sharp object, burned by a furnace and [[Treehouse of Horror XI|even once by a dolphin]].

The Halloween episodes also regularly parody many classic horror and science fiction films and episodes such as "The Shining", "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet", "To Serve Man", "Living Doll", "It's a Good Life", "A Kind of a Stopwatch", "The Little People" and "Little Girl Lost".

''Treehouse of Horror'' television marathons include: ''The Simpsons Halloween Scare-A-Thon'' in [[1993]] and ''Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror'' in [[2011]].

== Origins ==
According to DVD commentary, the reason why the episodes are non-canon is a trade-off for the writers. Writing three 7-minute segments was just too taxing for the writers, so it was proposed that they could do anything without worrying about continuity to appease them.

The yearly Halloween special was named "Treehouse of Horror" because the [[Treehouse of Horror|original special]] depicted the Simpson children in their treehouse telling scary stories to one another. In later years the series dropped the framing device of characters telling stories, but kept the ''Treehouse'' title.

[[File:Homer in the Real World (Treehouse of Horror VI).png|thumb|250px|The 3D Homer from Treehouse of Horror VI.]]

In a section of "[[Treehouse of Horror VI]]" called "Homer³," Homer and Bart go into a three-dimensional world, which Homer likens to ''{{W2|Tron|film}}'', created by Pacific Data Images, a computer animation company that would later produce ''[[Shrek]]''. This segment from the Halloween episode was also used as a segment of a film shown in the IMAX 3D film Cyberworld. This was the first and one of the few times The Simpsons have strayed from their traditional 2D animation, and the longest, as other moments consisted of live action couch gags or short claymation or CGI television and film parodies. Other Treehouse segment name parodies include "Citizen Kang", "Nightmare on Evergreen Terrace", "The Thing and I", "Hex and the City", "House of Whacks", "I've Grown a Costume On Your Face", "The Shinning" and "Reaper Madness".

== Traditions ==
For several years the characters broke the fourth wall and introduced their pieces directly to the audience. In "[[Treehouse of Horror II]]" the writers decided to give the cast and crew of the show scary names in the opening and closing credits (like "Bat Groening" and "James Hell Brooks"). This also became a tradition, and has been done in every Halloween episode since October 25, 1990 except for [[Treehouse of Horror XII|XII]] and [[Treehouse of Horror XIII|XIII]]. The names have changed in subsequent seasons, with the exception of [[Sam Simon]]'s, who left during the fourth season. He has since remained "Sam 'Sayonara' Simon."

[[File:Kang and Kodos - Treehouse of Horror VII.png|thumb|250px|Homer encounters [[Kang]] and [[Kodos]] after being abducted by them in "[[Treehouse of Horror VII]]".]]

Another mainstay of the Halloween shows is the appearance of the two space aliens [[Kang]] and [[Kodos]], introduced in the second segment of the first "Treehouse of Horror." However they are not always important to any story in the special; starting with "[[Treehouse of Horror III]]" they began appearing just to keep up the tradition. While they have had significant parts in other "Treehouse of Horror" episodes, they often only appear in the middle of a totally different story, for example, a story about zombies attacking the town will suddenly turn to them in space, watching the events and laughing maniacally at the Earthlings' suffering, before switching back to the actual story. In later years they would sometimes appear at either the beginning or end of the episode, outside of any of the stories; for example, one year they appeared between the last segment and the credits wondering why The Simpsons producers hadn't called them to be in the episode. Soon they get a call offering them to be on a commercial for something called "Old Navy".

From the second halloween episode, "shh" in the Gracie Films logo is abandoned and the Gracie Films music at the end is replaced with a pipe organ version (played in a minor key). From the fourth halloween episode a scream was added as well.

Also, at the start of Treehouse of Horror I, II, and V Marge comes out with a message urging parents not to let their children watch the program as they will suffer from nightmares; however, she gives up, saying how no one ever listens to her. This was abandoned in later seasons because the length of each episode has been reduced significantly since first few seasons and because by then the writers were sure that everyone was aware that the shows are scary. Another tradition they abandoned was including tombstones with humorous messages in the opening credits: the credits for Treehouse of Horror V include a single tombstone with the words "Amusing Tombstones" to signal this.

== Recent years ==

Although the Treehouse series is meant to be seen on Halloween, in recent years new installments have premiered after Halloween. This is due to Fox's current contract with Major League Baseball's World Series and Playoff games. If the Series does not go the full seven games, Fox usually airs the previous season's Treehouse episode on the Sunday before Halloween (or if Sunday happens to fall on Halloween). However, it has been known on many occasions for new shows to premiere on the West Coast only in time for Halloween regardless of how long the World Series lasts. It gets the full national premiere, of course, as scheduled in November, after Halloween. Another reason for the late airing is that during November, Nielsen Media Research conducts one of its four annual sweeps months - in recent years, the annual Treehouse of Horror episodes tend to draw some of the highest ratings of the season to which it belongs. Between "[[Treehouse of Horror XI]]" to "[[Treehouse of Horror XIX]]" and "[[Treehouse of Horror XXI]]" was aired in November.

FOX's arrangement with Major League Baseball was made fun of in the opening sequence for "[[Treehouse of Horror XVI]]". Kang, frustrated that the episode is being delayed by a World Series baseball game, decides to "fast forward" the game, but overdoes it, sucking the Earth, the universe, and everything else (including [[God]]) into nothingness. He then leaves a sticky note, which shows the title. Another joke about the programming of Halloween episodes in November appears in "[[Treehouse of Horror XIV]]", where Kang looks at a TV Guide and says, "Those humans. They're showing a Halloween episode. In November!" Kodos replies, "Who cares about Halloween? We've already got our Christmas decorations up!" The camera then cuts to a shot of the fireplace with Christmas decorations, complete with multi-legged stockings and alien reindeer, scattered about, and festive Christmas music plays over the opening credits.

So far, only 3 Treehouse of Horror episodes were aired before the World Series, "[[Treehouse of Horror XX]]", "[[Treehouse of Horror XXIII]]", and "[[Treehouse of Horror XXIV]]", Every other Treehouse of Horror episodes were aired right after the World Series with half of them going into November.

Other episodes that don't follow the anthology but have its elements are "[[Thanksgiving of Horror]]", a Thanksgiving special, and "[[Not It]]", a standalone Treehouse of Horror story.
== Comics Series ==
{{Main|The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror}}
From 1995 to 2017, [[Bongo Comics Group]] published a Treehouse of Horror comic series each September, originally titled ''Bart Simpson's Treehouse of Horror'', and later renamed ''The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror''. A total of 23 comics were released, and six trade paperbacks of the comics were published.

Originally, guest writers from other comic book companies were invited to submit scripts to Bongo, where the comics themselves would then be drawn by Bongo staff. Beginning with #5 (1999), the "guests" were allowed to submit both stories and art, wherein at the most Bongo would only supply the lettering and colorings of the stories [however, there are few cases of this rule being broken; i.e., "The Catastrophe on Substitute Springfields" (#7, 2001) and "The Legend of Batterface" (#10, 2004).

== Others ==
The video game ''[[Night of the Living Treehouse of Horror]]'' is based on various Treehouse of Horror segments. Additionally, the {{ap|Level 7|The Simpsons: Hit & Run|final level}} of ''[[The Simpsons: Hit & Run]]'' also borrows elements from the Treehouse of Horror episodes.

Various Treehouse of Horror-related merchandise has been released:
*[[Burger King#Merchandise|Burger King figurines]]
*[[The Simpsons Funko Pop!#Treehouse of Horror|Funko Pop! figurines]]
*[[Simpsons Halloween Village|Hawthorne Halloween Village]]
*[[Kidrobot#Simpsons Treehouse of Horror Blind Box Mini Figure Series|Kidrobot figurines]]

'''Milhouse Mussolini'''<ref name="The Last of the Red Hat Mamas">"[[The Last of the Red Hat Mamas]]"</ref> '''Van Houten''' (born July 4<ref>"[[American History X-cellent]]"</ref>) is [[Bart Simpson]]'s best friend. As the only child of [[Kirk]] and [[Luann Van Houten]], Milhouse's most distinctive physical traits are his extreme nearsightedness (depicted by very small eyes), requiring thick glasses to correct, and a bulbous potato-shaped nose. Milhouse has his mother's coloring (blue hair) but not her vivacity or confidence, and shares his father's generally milquetoast and defeated demeanor, although Milhouse sometimes gets cocky and overconfident, raising his eyebrows lasciviously, usually while trying to woo Lisa.

Despite being considered a nerd, Milhouse is of average intelligence but has poor social skills. He is also very gullible, thus he is often led into trouble by the mischievous Bart, who is not shy about taking advantage. Occasionally, however, Milhouse takes advantage of or manipulates Bart.

== Biography ==
[[File:Milhouse Every Simpsons Ever.png|thumb|left|250px]]
[[File:Milhouse Doesn't Live Here Anymore.png|left|thumb|Milhouse in a "bad boy" appearance]]
Milhouse is of Dutch and Italian descent. Milhouse is constantly victimized in some form or another such as being the target of the bullies [[Jimbo]], [[Dolph]] and [[Kearney]]. They often inflict extreme acts of physical violence upon him. One instance had the bullies wrapping Milhouse in bumper stickers and placing him in a shopping cart, the bullies then pushed the cart with Milhouse inside down a very steep hill.<ref>"[[Sideshow Bob Roberts]]"</ref> He frequently visited a female psychiatrist called Dr. Waxler until she got fed up by his frequent callings. Milhouse is also the subject of [[Nelson]]'s cruelty: "stop (hitting, zapping, etc.) yourself." He still uses a child-size car seat and is a bed-wetter.

On one occasion, [[Bart]] got Milhouse placed on the America's Most Wanted list, even though they are friends, and he once tried to lure Milhouse into a cactus. This kind of torture is often used by Bart, who tries either to get Milhouse in trouble or to hurt him for no reason, making Milhouse's and Bart's relationship even more questionable. Bart once introduced Milhouse and attempted to explain why they are friends. He cannot come up with a real answer and admits that it is due to geographical reasons, though Bart has admitted that he really loves Milhouse.<ref name="LOM">"[[Little Orphan Millie]]"</ref> [[Homer]] often calls Milhouse a "doofus" or refers to him as "that little wiener Milhouse". Homer also called Kirk Van Houten a "weirdo" and once emailed him to "pick up your weirdo kid". Bart does genuinely care for Milhouse, despite victimizing him on many occasions. Milhouse often does bad things under Bart's influence, like dropping mustard on cars from the top of a bridge<ref>"[[22 Short Films About Springfield]]"</ref> and destroying the school by loosening all the screws.<ref>"[[The Good, the Sad, and the Drugly]]"</ref> This is the reason his mother, Luann, at one point didn't want Milhouse to see Bart anymore, but later changed her mind after [[Marge]] talked to her.<ref>"[[Homer Defined]]"</ref>

However, when his parents were presumed lost at sea (they were later found safe) during their second honeymoon, Milhouse acquired a somber gravitas. The kids at school were impressed, even Nelson, who forewent giving Milhouse his scheduled wedgie. Bart brought Milhouse's uncle, [[Norbert Van Houten|Norbert]] to Springfield to console Milhouse. Once Milhouse was no longer (believed to be) an orphan, however, the dignified gravitas disappeared and the other kids went back to treating him as before.<ref name="LOM"/> Later, when his he and his mother moved to [[Capital City]], he dyed his hair blond, wore loud clothing, and treated the visiting Bart poorly to impress his new city friends. He even gave Bart a wedgie (Bart allowed it). Later his father won a judgment requiring Milhouse to be returned to Springfield.<ref>"[[Milhouse Doesn't Live Here Anymore]]"</ref>
[[File:MilhouseHD.JPG|thumb]]
People frequently make Milhouse the butt of a variety of jokes, from having the door slammed in his face while playing Pin the Tail on the Donkey to inheriting Bart's dismal permanent record at school through a side deal arranged between Bart and [[Edna Krabappel]] and [[Principal Skinner]], which will disqualify Milhouse from "all but the hottest and noisiest jobs". Lisa once inadvertently caused Milhouse to be severely beaten by Nelson when she persuaded Milhouse to pass Nelson (with whom she was briefly infatuated) a love note from her but which Nelson thought was from Milhouse himself, due to the absurd facial expressions and guilty looks on Milhouse's face when he saw Nelson looking at him.

[[Lisa]] identified Milhouse as representing "The Dependable Sidekick" among [[The 20 Types of People You Meet in Elementary School]].<ref>''[[The Lisa Book]]''</ref>

Milhouse is of partial Italian ancestry, due to the fact that his [[Nana Sophie Mussolini|grandmother]] lives in Italy. He is of Dutch and Danish descent on his father's side.

=== Romance and sexuality ===
[[File:Milhouse kissed Homer.png|thumb|175px|Milhouse kissed Homer]]
Milhouse harbors a hopeless crush on Bart's younger sister, [[Lisa]], and he is usually clumsy around females. However, in a flashback, when Bart and Milhouse were in kindergarten, the school principal accidentally revealed that he had assessed Milhouse to be gay.<ref>"[[Lisa's Sax]]"</ref> On occasion he has been shown to enjoy cross-dressing (in one episode, he convinces Bart to dress up with him too) and noticed a boy, named Deven Woosterfield, to be beautiful.<ref>"[[Double, Double, Boy in Trouble]]"</ref>

Milhouse has exhibited a tendency to act feminine, complete with dress, clichéd catchphrases and mannerisms, usually in some sort of misguided or out-of-control shenanigans, luring Bart, on at least one occasion, to dress likewise. His lies and social anxiety have cost him Lisa's affection three times, as well as a relationship with [[Rainier Wolfcastle]]'s daughter [[Greta]]. Examples of such behavior are referring to himself as a "big sister" and being caught with a scrunchie in his hair.<ref>"[[The Bart Wants What It Wants]]"</ref> Milhouse may have a crush on Marge, implied when Bart asked him if he's in love with her. Additionally, upon being asked whether he thinks that Marge is cool, he immediately, without thinking, responds, "No, I think she's ''HOT!''"<ref>"[[Simpson Tide]]"</ref>

Lisa once showed concern for Milhouse when he was beaten by Nelson and left in a heap, and tended to him. However, she soon became distracted by the arrival of Irish environmentalist [[Colin]], who became her love interest. When the [[Trappuccino]] finished, Milhouse lied to Lisa about Colin's death and claimed he begged Milhouse to look after her. Colin returned in the middle of Milhouse's story, and Milhouse quickly took his leave.<ref>''[[The Simpsons Movie]]''</ref>

Milhouse's first girlfriend was [[Samantha Stanky]], a new student who had moved to [[Springfield]] from Phoenix, Arizona.[[File:Bart's Friend Falls in Love.png|thumb|left|Milhouse and Samantha kissing]] After her father caught her and Milhouse kissing, he sent her to all-girls [[Saint Sebastian's School for Wicked Girls]].<ref>"[[Bart's Friend Falls in Love]]"</ref> While Milhouse's official first kiss was with Samantha, it was contradicted when Milhouse claims his first kiss was with Homer during a game of spin the bottle that Homer interrupted by going up the treehouse and accidentally kissing Milhouse (much to Homer's disgust, but to Milhouse' glad for being his first kiss).<ref>"[[The Way We Weren't]]"</ref>

Milhouse was seen making out with [[Paris Texan]], who is nearly 20. This may be due to Milhouse wearing cool clothes at the moment.<ref>"[[Homerazzi]]"</ref> [[Milhouse]] have also date [[Taffy]], and Lisa began to follow the. After a while, realized [[Taffy]] to Milhouse will always be in love with Lisa and broke up the relationship. Lisa then decided to kiss him for the first time but explained that she does not yet know if she loves him.<ref>"[[Homer Scissorhands]]"</ref> Although Lisa pointed out in a previous episode that she kissed Milhouse.<ref>"[[Gone Maggie Gone]]"</ref>

=== Skills and talents ===
Milhouse is fluent in Italian from visiting his Anglophobic grandmother, Nana Sophie, in Tuscany for two weeks every year. His grandmother's beatings when he spoke English left Milhouse both fluent in Italian and a bed-wetter. He demonstrated once that he is a skilled Vespa rider, although he is obviously not legally entitled to operate a scooter on public roads. He came closest to successfully wooing Lisa when he taught Italian to her, as she even kept a picture of Milhouse in her room while practicing Italian, but his lies and bragging ruined it, and at the end of the episode Lisa was seen chasing Milhouse in fury, just as his grandmother was shown chasing after him whenever he spoke English.<ref name="The Last of the Red Hat Mamas"/>

== Non-canon ==
{{Noncanon}}
He was revealed to not be the son of either Luann or Kirk.<ref>"[[Lisa the Boy Scout]]"</ref>
[[File:Milhouse Future.png|right|thumb|Milhouse in one version of the future]]
=== Future ===
According to a future-telling machine invented by [[Professor Frink]], at age 14 Milhouse burns down a house but rescues Lisa from it. By the time he is 18, Milhouse is rather steroidally-looking buff but emotionally unstable. He dates Lisa but she breaks up with him, sending him on a violent rampage similar to {{W2|Hulk|comics}}, probably due to the steroids. When the two nearly get back together, Bart rescues Lisa, fearing it will ruin her life.<ref>"[[Future-Drama]]"</ref>

A few years later, Milhouse (having lost the "Hulk"ish physique), asks Lisa to marry him. She declines because she intends to never marry. At age 25, Milhouse is balding and works as Homer's supervisor at the [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant]]. He abuses the position to mistreat Homer when learns that Lisa is engaged to another man, although ultimately the engagement does not last.<ref>"[[Lisa's Wedding]]"</ref> At age 40, he marries Lisa; the two have a teenage daughter, [[Zia Simpson|Zia]].<ref>"[[Holidays of Future Passed]]"</ref>

=== The Simpsons arcade game ===
Milhouse appears in stage 2 carrying a hammer for the Simpsons to use to fight Mr. Burns' goons.

=== The Simpsons Game ===
Milhouse appears as the villain "Mr. Dirt" who taunts Homer and Lisa as they seek to defeat all three Sparklemons. After they capture all three Sparklemon balls and place them in the coin slots of the giant toilet shrine, Mr. Sparkle cleans up the village, and Milhouse shrinks to normal, handing over the keycard and being attacked by the three Sparklemons.<ref>''[[Big Super Happy Fun Fun Game]]''</ref>

== Behind the Laughter ==
=== Creation ===
[[File:Parecidos razonables aquellos maravillosos milhouse.jpg|right|thumb|Milhouse bears a strong resemblance to Paul Pfeiffer from ''[[The Wonder Years]]''.]]
Milhouse was named after US President [[Richard Nixon]], whose middle name was Milhous. The name was the most "unfortunate name [[Matt Groening]] could think of for a child". Milhouse is a favorite among the staff as [[Al Jean]] noted "most of the writers are more like Milhouse than Bart".

=== ''Wonder Years'' Connection? ===
Due to Milhouse's resemblance to the character Paul Pfeiffer from ''[[The Wonder Years]]'', there was a long-standing rumor among ''Simpsons'' fans that Milhouse's appearance had been based on Paul. However, the resemblance appears to be only a coincidence. Producer/director [[David Silverman]] disclaimed the rumored Milhouse/Paul connection in a discussion on {{W|Twitter}} in 2011, first saying that "''Wonder Years'' never came up" in the process of designing Milhouse's appearance.<ref name="Milhouse origin discussion">[http://rubbercat.net/simpsons/news/2011/10/milhouse-couldve-starred-in-a-saturday-morning-cartoon.html Rubbercat.net article]</ref> Later in the discussion, he said, "Wonder Years Schmonder Years. Nerdy kid w glasses, big nose, & severe hair = a common stereotype."<ref name="Schmonder Years Tweet">[https://twitter.com/tubatron/status/123063609730408448 David Silverman on Twitter]</ref>

'''Selma Bouvier-Terwilliger-Hutz-McClure-Discothèque-Simpson-D'Amico''' or '''Selma Bouvier''' is one of [[Marge]]'s older chain-smoking twin sisters, who works at the [[DMV]] and possess a strong dislike for her brother-in-law, [[Homer]]. Selma is the adoptive mother of [[Ling]].

== Biography ==
Selma Bouvier was born two minutes before [[Patty]].<ref>"[[Principal Charming]]"</ref> Due to a childhood bottle rocket accident, she lost the senses of taste and smell.<ref>"[[Black Widower]]"</ref> Selma's favorite film actor was reportedly [[Troy McClure]], to whom she was briefly married before discovering it was just a publicity stunt by McClure. She was willing to live a sham for a while, but broke it off when she realized she couldn't bring a child into a loveless marriage.<ref>"[[A Fish Called Selma]]"</ref> According to Marge, Selma is "the one who likes Police Academy movies, Hummel figurines, and walking through the park on clear autumn days."<ref>"[[Principal Charming]]"</ref>

Selma inherited her deceased aunt's iguana, [[Jub-Jub]], instead of her mother, [[Jacqueline Bouvier|Jacqueline]] adopting him, due to Jacqueline's apparent dislike of Jub-Jub. Unlike Patty, Selma showed brief moments of sympathy for Homer, primarily due to his unwavering loyalty to his family. In fact, Selma is responsible for reuniting Homer with Marge after they split up, despite an agreement with Patty not to do so.<ref>"[[I Married Marge]]"</ref>

Homer also demonstrated moments of kindness towards Selma such as offering advice and sympathy, when she began to question her own ability to be a mother after attempting to take care of Bart and Lisa for an afternoon. Later, Homer was convinced by Marge to act as Selma's husband so she could adopt a Chinese baby and did all he could to make sure Selma got to keep said baby.<ref>"[[Goo Goo Gai Pan]]"</ref> He also helped her and Patty keep their jobs after they were caught smoking at work (although this was more for Marge's sake). However, these instances are still very few and far between. Unlike Patty, Selma is very desperate to find love after seeing her Aunt Gladys' tape. She also asks Marge for advice to find love, saying Patty is 2 minutes more beautiful than she is.

Selma's favorite brand of cigarettes is identified as "Laramie Hi-Tars" while Patty's favorite brand of cigarettes is "Lady Laramie 100s"; they have been claimed by their mother to "have started smoking even before birth". They share an apartment at the Spinster Arms apartment complex and work at the [[Department of Motor Vehicles]] (DMV). They on numerous occasions acted unprofessionally in the course of their jobs.

=== Personality ===
Selma lacks the senses of taste and smell due to a childhood bottle rocket accident (one shot up her nose).<ref>"[[Black Widower]]"</ref> Both twin sisters tend to be cynical and are noted for their addiction to tobacco smoking. They have a strong, mutual (and reciprocated) dislike for their [[Homer Simpson|brother-in-law]]. She (along with her sister) are shown to be older than Homer and Marge, but a birthdate has not been given. It is presumed they are 41.

Unlike Homer, who usually makes a perfunctory (if not particularly sincere or committed) effort to be polite to his sisters-in-law out of respect for his [[Marge Simpson|wife]], Patty and Selma have no hesitation in treating Homer with open rudeness and contempt. There were several instances where they did not seem to care when Homer faced a life-threatening situation. For instance, when Marge rushes to the hospital after receiving a telephone call Homer suffered a heart attack at work, Patty and Selma — instead of going to the hospital and comforting Marge in her time of need — remained seated at the kitchen table, continuing their activity of cutting coupons, gasping in amazement at a five cent discount and behaving as though nothing was wrong.<ref>"[[Homer's Triple Bypass]]"</ref> They later attempted to set up Marge with a (rather sleazy) friend as a replacement for Homer, regardless of the fact Homer was still very much alive.

When Homer faked his death to get out of work, Patty and Selma showed up at the Simpson house holding a tombstone inscribed with "Homer J. Simpson. We are richer for having lost him." This gift as well as the fact they been saving for this since Marge's wedding causes her to angrily throw them out.<ref>"[[Mother Simpson]]"</ref>

Her bad traits have not gone unnoticed by the populace of Springfield and even their family, her mother even stated "[they're] a sort of evil", having raised them her whole life.

=== Relationships ===
Despite being identical twins, Patty and Selma have very different track records when it comes to finding dates. According to Marge, Patty chose a life of celibacy, while Selma had celibacy thrust upon her. Her standards are extremely low, as evidenced by her comments on [[Mr. Burns]]: "Single, eh? Well, he passes the Selma Test."

Selma actively sought out a husband, having been married a total of six times. Her current name evolved into Selma Bouvier-Terwilliger-Hutz-McClure-Discothèque-Simpson-D'Amico, after failed marriages to [[Sideshow Bob]], [[Lionel Hutz]], [[Troy McClure]], [[Disco Stu]], [[Abraham Simpson]], and [[Fit Tony]]. Selma later began dating and later married Grampa Simpson, who previously dated her mother. Eventually, however, they realized they just cannot make it work because of his age and her career and called it quits. Selma once dated [[Hans Moleman]] but when the date finished, Selma imagined what life with Hans would be like and swiftly kicked him out of her car.<ref>"[[Selma's Choice]]"</ref> Selma once made out on a park bench with [[Moe Szyslak]] after mistaking him for {{W|John Ritter}}; however they continued making out anyway,<ref>"[['Scuse Me While I Miss the Sky]]"</ref> she later dated Moe a second time.<ref>"[[Lisa Simpson, This Isn't Your Life]]"</ref> She once dated [[Barney Gumble]]<ref>"[[Principal Charming]]"</ref> and may have hooked up with him again during "[[Halloween of Horror|Grown up Halloween]]".<ref>"[[The Simpsons: Tapped Out Treehouse of Horror 2015 content update]]"</ref> Selma once claimed she and [[Kent Brockman]] made out on the date of 9/11.<ref>"[[Rednecks and Broomsticks]]"</ref>

Selma had a seemingly on/off relationship with [[Apu]]. When Apu was threatened with deportation Selma refused to marry him due to his long name.<ref>"[[Much Apu About Nothing]]"</ref> However she later slept with him after [[A Milhouse Divided|Homer and Marge's second wedding]].<ref>"[[Wedding for Disaster]]"</ref> Later still she was one of the women who bought Apu at a bachelor auction.<ref>"[[The Two Mrs. Nahasapeemapetilons]]"</ref>

Unable to find companionship in a husband, Selma also sought to have children. At one point she was considering using a sperm donor. After babysitting Bart and Lisa for a day, she realized although she wanted someone to love, she was not ready to have children and wound up adopting Jub-Jub, her Aunt Gladys' pet iguana. Later however, a very menopausal Selma adopted a Chinese baby, [[Ling Bouvier]]. During the adoption process, Selma pretended to be married to Homer, since the Chinese government only allows children to be adopted by married couples. When the fraud was exposed, Selma managed to keep the baby, as a Chinese dignitary who had also been raised by a single parent became sympathetic.

=== Other ===
As children, Selma and her sister [[Patty Bouvier]] were apparently domineering towards Marge and ridiculed her ambition of becoming an astronaut. Their relationship seems to have improved over the years. As adults, the Bouvier twins have a friendly relationship with their sister and frequently visit the Simpsons. They seem relatively fond of their nieces and nephew, but seem to like them more when they are young: ''"The older they get, the cuter they ain't."'' They, on occasion, watched the kids when their parents were out of town. However, Bart and Lisa would rather not be around when their aunts visit. Their idea of bonding with Lisa includes tutoring her in the belief men are pigs, using Homer as the prime example.

Their relationship with Homer remains one of mutual dislike (although Selma gradually grows to become more tolerant towards Homer and often experiences brief moments of kindness from both Homer and Selma) which involves a continuous exchange of insults from day one. They unfavorably compare their brother-in-law to a caveman, suggesting him capable of trading Maggie for beer and a nudie magazine.

Selma and Patty occasionally expressed their common hope Marge will eventually divorce Homer. They are often quick in pointing out his attempts at infidelity, and unsuccessfully offered to help Marge find a replacement for Homer (although Selma eventually gave in and helped Marge find Homer after seeing how truly unhappy she was without him). The twins went so far as to have a billboard built trying to convince voters to have Homer kicked out of Springfield.<ref>"[[Three Gays of the Condo]]"</ref>

Their dislike towards Homer even led to push Homer off a bridge, although they halfheartedly claim they did this in order to get him to his surprise party, conveniently on a boat passing under the bridge at the time.<ref>"[[Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind]]"</ref>

Although Homer dislikes Selma and Patty, he showed occasional bouts of kindness towards them, and Selma in particular (much to the Twin's surprise), although, he often does this more because of his love for Marge than for any love for his in-laws.

Selma once took the Simpson children on a disastrous trip to the Duff Gardens theme park. Unable to control the children, Bart manhandles several animatronic characters and Lisa goes on a psychedelic trip after drinking "water" from an ''It's a Small World'' - like boat ride (later swimming naked in the Fermentarium and exclaiming "I am the lizard queen!"). After that, however, Selma returned home with the children and asked Homer how he does it, referring to raising children. She mentioned children and they exchanged a hug, implying Selma is slightly more capable of overcoming her dislike of Homer than Patty.<ref>"[[Selma's Choice]]"</ref>

=== The Simpsons Game ===
Patty and Selma appear in the level [[NeverQuest]] in the form of a two-headed dragon who attack the Hobbit-like forms of [[Rod Flanders]], [[Todd Flanders]], and [[Ralph Wiggum]]. They also appear earlier on in [[Mob Rules]] as people Marge can use to protest the sales of the ''Grand Theft Scratchy'' videogame to minors.

=== The Simpsons: Tapped Out ===
{{TranscludeSection|The Simpsons: Tapped Out characters/Bouvier Family|Selma}}

== Behind the Laughter ==
[[Matt Groening]] said he named the Simpsons after his own parents and two younger sisters; he has an older sister named Patty who is an art dealer. Julie Kavner said he had difficulty coming up with the voices for Marge's sisters, until producer [[James L. Brooks]] suggested she voice Patty and Selma as characters "who suck the joy out of everything."

'''Eddie''' is one of the two police officers who aid [[Chief Wiggum]] on almost every mission. Unlike [[Lou]], he is rather unintelligent, but still not as dumb as Wiggum.

== Biography ==
[[File:Eddie Every Simpsons Ever.png|thumb|250px|left]]
Eddie is quite quiet, though he is always there at every case with Lou and Chief Wiggum. Eddie used to be a bit more chopsier and talked more than he does now.

=== History ===
He has been seen in [[Moe's Tavern]] to get a drink with Lou. Also, he gave [[Bart]] a ride in the police car and gave him a pistol in case a thief appeared.<ref name="[[Separate Vocations]]">"[[Separate Vocations]]"</ref> He was once promoted to Lou's position and asked Wiggum who will take his position, to which Wiggum replied with a simple "nobody".<ref name="[[Pranksta Rap]]">"[[Pranksta Rap]]"</ref>

== Characteristics ==
Eddie loves being a cop because it makes him feel like he is "making a difference".<ref name="[[Separate Vocations]]"/> It has been implied Eddie was [[LGBT characters|gay]], due to his unusual body movements and Chief Wiggum's comment of "It's a wonder why he can't get a girlfriend". Yet it's mentioned that he was sleeping with Lou's ex-wife Amy.<ref>"[[The Bart of War]]"</ref>

== Non-canon ==
{{Noncanon}}
He was revealed to be [[Ralph Wiggum|Ralph]]'s real father, due to his similar hair and non-sequiturs.<ref>"[[Lisa the Boy Scout]]"</ref>
=== Future ===
He will be a robo-cop along with Lou and Wiggum.<ref name="[[Future-Drama]]">"[[Future-Drama]]"</ref>

=== Treehouse of Horror XV ===
When Wiggum was discovered to be a so-called Muttonchop Murderer, he said "Why can't you be more like Eddie?", Lou then replied with "Because you cut his tongue out." To which Eddie said "He's right chief", with much difficulty in pronouncing the words without his tongue.<ref name="[[Treehouse of Horror XV]]">"[[Treehouse of Horror XV]]"</ref>

'''Dr. William "Willie" MacDougal''',<ref>"[[Lisa the Drama Queen]]"</ref> better known as '''Groundskeeper Willie''' and also known as '''G.K. Willington''' and '''William MacMoran''', is the groundskeeper and janitor of [[Springfield Elementary School]]. Scottish by ancestry, Willie's job is to supervise the children of the School during recess, and clean the halls. He is recognizable with his red hair and thick Scottish accent. He is often either a formidable enemy or an invaluable ally to [[Bart]] and [[Lisa]].

== Biography ==
[[File:Willie Every Simpsons Ever.png|thumb|left|250px]]
Willie is the groundskeeper at Springfield Elementary School and is a stereotypical angry Scottish man with a heavy Scottish accent. He was originally hired at Springfield Elementary as "swim teacher Willie." Unfortunately, after Skinner was trapped in the worm-filled pool for three days, he had the pool destroyed, and made Willie a groundskeeper. During weekends and vacations, he also tends the golfing greens, giving himself the appropriate name ''Greens''keeper Willie.<ref>"[[Lost Verizon]]"</ref> He has claimed to originate from several different places in [[Scotland]], and frequently gives contradictory accounts of his past life before arriving in [[Springfield]]. Willie once told a story of working at a mine that caved in, saying, "No one made it out alive, not even Willie!".<ref>"[[The President Wore Pearls]]"</ref> It is implied that he immigrated to [[USA|America]] illegally, as he had to take a citizenship test.<ref>"[[Much Apu About Nothing]]"</ref> Willie is incompetent and is quick to anger for little or no reason. He has shown great animosity towards both [[Principal Skinner]] and Bart Simpson, the latter of whom is often more than willing to make Willie the butt of his jokes.

[[File:WillieFolder.PNG|thumbnail|left|Willie's character folder seen in the Hall of Records]]

Willie once told Skinner that he had seen his own father hanged for stealing a pig. Groundskeeper Willie once discovered an Oil Well by accident because he was attempting to bury the school hamster. Because of the school's new wealth, he requested a crystal pail. However, after [[Mr. Burns]] stole the oil, which not only resulted in the loss of the school's newly gained fortune, but also causing the school to go into an even worse financial state than before due to the cost of dismantling the oil tower, Skinner was forced to lay off Groundskeeper Willie in order to preserve the remaining school budget, causing Willie to wish to murder Mr. Burns and "wound that [[Waylon Smithers, Jr.|Mr. Smithers]]." However, he ultimately wasn't able to get that chance when Mr. Burns was shot due to arthritis he gained from playing Space Invaders preventing him from even utilizing a gun. He once had a cache of "screw you money", but he ended up losing it all, presumably due to [[Artie Ziff]] cheating out ZiffCorp's shareholders.

Willie's hobbies include videotaping couples in cars, something which proves to the benefit of [[Homer Simpson]] when he is later wrongfully accused of sexual harassment.<ref>"[[Homer Badman]]"</ref> At one time, Willie was engaged to [[Shary Bobbins|Sherry Bobbins]] until she recovered her eyesight—at which point, in Willie's words, "Suddenly the ugliest man in Glasgow wasn't good enough for her!<ref>"[[Simpsoncalifragilisticexpiala(Annoyed Grunt)cious]]"</ref>" Willie was once given the job of teaching Bart Simpson. Lisa had taken a restraining order against Bart, so he couldn't legally go to the same school. Willie became Bart's teacher because, according to Principal Skinner, Willie's shack is the only place on school grounds "outside all laws of Man and God.<ref>"[[On a Clear Day I Can't See My Sister]]"</ref>" His years of heavy work have given him amazing strength and a very muscular physique, which has been observed many times; for example, he rescues Bart from a marauding [[Alaska]]n timber wolf by wrestling it into submission. He also makes a prank on a play however Principal Skinner blamed his prank on Bart and expelled him but he welcomes him back as an apology when he talks to Skinner that he was behind the prank and Bart accepts the apology happily. Much like [[Ned Flanders]], though, his physique is unremarkable when he is clothed, and seemingly morphs as soon as he is partially nude. Apparently, he has had sexual attractions to {{W|Sarah, Duchess of York|Sarah Ferguson}}, Duchess of York (more commonly known as "Fergie"), as he had mentioned while hallucinating as an after effect of Seth and Munchie's Peyote-laced juice (which was thanks to Homer) that he waited a long time for the moment where he could embrace Fergie passionately.<ref>"[[D'oh-in' in the Wind]]"</ref> Willie used to date a [[Sweden|Swedish]] bikini model name {{ap|Inga|The Good, the Sad, and the Drugly}}, but he told her she can't compete against his job because she'll never win.<ref>"[[The Good, the Sad, and the Drugly]]"</ref>

He slept with [[Lunchlady Dora]]<ref>"[[Dark Knight Court]]"</ref> and was later paired up with her by [[Professor Frink]],<ref>"[[Love Is in the N2-O2-Ar-CO2-Ne-He-CH4]]"</ref> made out with [[Miss Hoover]]<ref>"[[24 Minutes]]"</ref> and was once in a relationship with [[Edna Krabappel]].<ref>"[[The Ned-liest Catch]]"</ref> When he became a proper gentleman, he danced with Edna, [[Lindsey Naegle]] and [[Miss Springfield]], he also got "intimate" with [[Agnes Skinner]]<ref>"[[My Fair Laddy]]"</ref> and later made out with her during "Grown-up Halloween".<ref>"[[Halloween of Horror]]"</ref>

== Non-canon ==
{{Noncanon}}
He confessed to his rake that he is not its father, and that he's actually Welsh and not Scottish.<ref>"[[Lisa the Boy Scout]]"</ref>
=== Treehouse of Horror ===
Willie has a tendency to get killed in the Treehouse of Horror episodes, getting killed three times in "[[Treehouse of Horror V]]", each time he attempts to be helpful or heroic, and each time he is felled by an axe in the back (he mutters, "Ach, I'm bad at this" after the third time). He is also killed in "[[Treehouse of Horror VI]]" by being burned to death, in "[[Treehouse of Horror XI]]" by a dolphin, in "[[Treehouse of Horror XVI]]" he is strafed and killed by Burns, in "[[Treehouse of Horror XVIII]]" by getting his head cut off by the tractor, and in "[[Treehouse of Horror XIX]]" by being eaten by the Grand Pumpkin although he is saved later. In "[[Treehouse of Horror XXII]]", though, he has the smallest part of all — he appears at the end as a cyborg cleaner, essentially a cyborg groundskeeper. In "[[Treehouse of Horror XXIII]]", he was seen working at the [[Springfield Subatomic Supercollider]].<ref>"[[Treehouse of Horror XXIII]]"</ref>

=== ''The Simpsons Game'' ===
Willie appears as one of the contestants in the Duff Ultimate Eating Challenge in the level "[[Around the World in 80 Bites]]". He also appears in "[[Mob Rules]]" as one of the people Marge can use in her mob to protest the sales of the ''Grand Theft Scratchy'' video game to minors.

== Behind the Laughter ==
=== Creation ===
Groundskeeper Willie's first appearance was in the season two episode "[[Principal Charming]]". Originally, the character was just written as an angry janitor, and the fact that he was Scottish was added during a recording session. [[Dan Castellaneta]] was assigned to do the voice. Castellaneta didn't know what voice to use and [[Sam Simon]], who was directing at the time, told Castellaneta to use an accent. He first tried using a Spanish voice, which Simon felt was too clichéd. He then tried a "big dumb Swede", which was also rejected. For his third try, he used the voice of an angry Scotsman, which was deemed appropriate enough and was used in the episode.<ref>''[[Springfield Confidential]]'' Chapter 6</ref> Originally thought by the directors to be a one-shot appearance, Willie has since become a common recurring character. [[Matt Groening]] would later reveal that the character was based on Angus Crock, a kilt-wearing chef from the sketch comedy show ''Second City Television'', who was portrayed by Dave Thomas.

=== Development ===
A recurring joke, which was first shown in "[[Radio Bart]]", is that Willie appears to have a pot belly, but whenever he takes off his shirt, he is quite muscular. One of Willie's trademarks is a gruffly-spoken insulting retort, which take the writers a long time to come up with, although they do not consider them that funny.

=== Cultural influence and legacy ===
Groundskeeper Willie's description of the French as "cheese-eating surrender monkeys" from the episode "[['Round Springfield]]" has become widely used, particularly in the run-up to the war in [[Iraq]]. The {{W|New York Post}} used the phrase "Surrender Monkeys" as the headline for its December 7, 2006 front page, referring to the Iraq Study Group and its recommendation that U.S. soldiers be withdrawn from Iraq by early 2008. The line was "most likely" written by [[Ken Keeler]].

''The Times'' reported in late 2005 that "he is the most instantly recognisable Scot in the world: better known than {{W|Billy Connolly}} or {{W|Ewan McGregor}}, even {{W|Sean Connery}}." The same article quotes ''Simpsons'' creator [[Matt Groening]] as saying "We wanted to create a school janitor that was filled with rage, sort of our tribute to angry janitors all over the world".

In 2006, Groundskeeper Willie would be named the fourth best peripheral character in the history of the show by IGN, who said "high-points for the character were being trained to be civilized, wrestling a wolf that was let loose in the school and becoming a substitute for the French language teacher - 'Bon jourrr! You cheese-eating surrender monkeys!'" IGN would also name "[[My Fair Laddy]]", the only episode which centers around Willie, the best episode of the seventeenth season. Jim Slotek of {{W|Sun Media}} would call Willie the ninth best ''Simpsons'' supporting character, and also made a Top Ten quotes list, which included Willie's quote "Och, back to the loch wi' you, Nessie." from "[[Selma's Choice]]".

There have been some moments in the show where he has been known to imitate {{W2|Scotty|Star Trek}} of ''[[Star Trek]]'' fame.

== Trivia ==
*In the ''[[Simpsons Comics]]'', it is implied his last name is MacMoran. However, in "[[My Fair Laddy]]", he claims he does not have a last name.
*Willie thinks movies and video games are real.
*Willie has arthritis in his index fingers.<ref>"[[Who Shot Mr. Burns? (Part Two)]]"</ref>

Disco Stu

'''Stuart Discothèque''',<ref>"[[Homer Scissorhands]]"</ref> generally known as '''Disco Stu''', is the owner of [[Stu's Disco]]. He is a disco aficionado and is usually featured wearing a rhinestone-encrusted leisure suit. He often refers to himself in the third person (putting a big emphasis on "Stu" and then pausing before saying anything else).

== History ==
Before becoming a fan of disco, Stu was known as Nautical Stu due to his career as a Sea Captain, before giving it up for his disco.

Stu visited the [[Evergreen Terrace|neighborhood]] yard sale and turned down the chance to buy Homer's "Disco Stu" jacket. He has also been seen with dead goldfish in his platform shoes, hitting on [[Marge Simpson]] at a ski lodge (until he finds out she has children), dancing with Homer after Homer discovers his love of walking, getting smashed by a jukebox thanks to a beefed up Marge, and most recently, a regular on Homer's talk show. During a "taxi cab confession", Disco Stu revealed that he's aware disco is dead, and that he does not even like it anymore.<ref>"[[How I Spent My Strummer Vacation]]"</ref> He expresses worry that he has let disco define him as a person and fears becoming a "one note guy".

Stu runs his own [[Stu's Disco|nightclub]] and tried to start a franchise chain.

== Religion and Relationships ==
Disco Stu got his marriage annulled by Pope John Paul II,<ref name="Marrying">"[[There's Something About Marrying]]"</ref> revealing that he is of the Catholic faith. He has been lucky with the ladies. He has dated [[Edna Krabappel]],<ref>"[[Bart Gets a "Z"]]"</ref> and [[Luann Van Houten]],<ref>"[[Milhouse of Sand and Fog]]"</ref> and was seen at an [[Absolut Krusty]] party with both [[Lindsey Naegle]] and [[Cookie Kwan]].<ref>"[[The Man in the Blue Flannel Pants]]"</ref> Stu also seems to have an attraction to the Bouvier sisters, but with less success:

He was once married to [[Selma]].<ref name="Marrying"/> Selma later tried to rekindle the relationship with Stu after her smoking relapse. At first Stu told her he was over her (despite the photos and artwork of her all over his house), but he apparently consented to at least a fling as he and Selma got together in her apartment after [[Patty]] left. When Patty returned, the sisters reconciled and Selma stated she had made a few mistakes while Patty was gone. At that point, Stu walked out of her bedroom while buttoning up his shirt and sadly said, "You said it was serious this time."<ref>"[[Puffless]]"</ref>

He once found himself attracted to [[Marge]], and put some moves on her in a ski lodge. However, he beat a hasty retreat when he learned she had kids.<ref>"[[Little Big Mom]]"</ref>

Disco Stu had a profile on the gay dating app, [[U.S. Male Service]]. In the video on the app, he said that he was hetero-flexible. However, [[Waylon Smithers]] thought that he was just going through a phase.<ref>"[[Portrait of a Lackey on Fire]]"</ref>

== Non-canon ==
{{Noncanon}}
Disco Stu has also appeared as "[[Discus Stu]]" in a [[Tales from the Public Domain|parody]] of the ''{{W|Odyssey}}''. He was "Disco Shrew" in the "[[Treehouse of Horror XIII]]" parody of ''{{W2|The Island of Dr. Moreau|1977 film}}'', where Stu was turned into a shrew, but wasn't worried about his condition.

Stu appears as "Big Band Stu" in the parody of ''{{W2|The War of the Worlds|1938 radio drama}}'' radio panic that takes place in 1938, in "[[Treehouse of Horror XVII]]". Big Band Stu's grave appears in "[[Looking for Mr. Goodbart]]".

Disco Stu was once dating one of the nurses at [[Springfield Retirement Castle]]. However, they broke up when [[Bart]], [[Grampa]], [[Jasper]] and the [[Old Jewish man]] pranked her, making her look old.<ref>''[[One Flew Over the Retirement Castle]]''</ref>

Selma revealed that she's actually Marge's mother and not her sister, but right before she could finish saying who her father is (who is Disco Stu), she passed away.<ref>"[[Lisa the Boy Scout]]"</ref>

== Behind the Laughter ==
Although originally created as a throwaway gag character, Stu ended up being brought back again and again. He was originally going to be voiced by [[Phil Hartman]] in the episode "[[Two Bad Neighbors]]", but when the animators needed to do a model change, Phil wasn't available to redub the voice, so Hank Azaria took it over. Disco Stu is now shown in the HD [[opening sequence]] along with many other characters that have debuted from the start of the series to [[season 20]].

'''Hans Moleman''' (also known as '''Ralph Melish''') is a 4ft 4 in, 140 lb mole-like man with extremely bad luck. He is also a former [[Mayor of Springfield]].<ref name="Walking Big & Tall"/>

== Description ==
He has cataracts and is almost entirely blind (which has severely impaired his reading ability) and has used medical marijuana. He carries a brown cane with him everywhere, which was once shown to contain a hidden sword.

== Biography ==
[[File:Hans Moleman Every Simpsons Ever.jpg|thumb|250px|left]]
Although apparently elderly, Hans Moleman once claimed that he was only 31 years old (his driver's license says he was born August 2, 1921), but due to his heavy drinking, he appears much older. However, this was wrong, most likely due to a combination of an error on his license and a mixture of old age and drinking.

Moleman is a former mayor of Springfield. Whilst he was the mayor, he bought a town anthem off a traveling salesman, which had also been sold to many other towns and cities. He also balanced the budget eight times during his time as mayor. When it was revealed that former Mayor Moleman had bought the town anthem and not written it himself as he had claimed, he was ejected from Springfield by being tied to a horse and sent out into the desert. After a long time, Moleman said "whoa" and the horse stopped and took him off its back.<ref name="Walking Big & Tall"/>

Hans was once mistaken for Bart and accidentally "de-programmed" (Homer and Marge had hired a cult de-programmer, hoping to convince Bart to move out of Mr. Burns' mansion and back in with them), apparently leading him to believe he is [[Bart|the son]] of [[Homer]] and [[Marge]].<ref>"[[Burns' Heir]]"</ref> At one time, it was revealed that Hans Moleman slept with Lars Ulrich's grandmother, and is considered by [[Metallica]] to be a "real fan".<ref>"[[The Mook, the Chef, the Wife and Her Homer]]"</ref>

Homer once stumbled across Hans Moleman as the leader of a race of Mole People in an underground fortress complete with earthquake machines.<ref name="Hello Gutter, Hello Fadder">"[[Hello Gutter, Hello Fadder]]"</ref>

Moleman's home address is 920 Oak Grove, Springfield. He has also been seen living at the Springfield Retirement Castle and he is shown to live in a small house directly below the dam that was erected (and subsequently destroyed). Apparently, he had a father who lived at Springfield Retirement Castle with whom he does the wheelbarrow race with, indicating that he may actually be younger than he looks.<ref>"[[In the Name of the Grandfather]]"</ref>

=== Love life ===
Moleman once went on a date with [[Selma Bouvier]]. However, when she imagined what life with Moleman might be like, she kicked him out of her car (outside the wrong house). Moleman also went on a date with [[Lunchlady Dora]] at [[Holding Hands Point]], Moleman claimed they were putting their relationship back together. Moleman and Dora were later seen together at a screening of "[[All the Wrong Reasons]]".<ref>"[[Homer Scissorhands]]"</ref><ref>"[[Beware My Cheating Bart]]"</ref> He was seen at "Grownup Halloween" with both [[Princess Kashmir]] and [[Stephanie Brockman]].<ref>"[[Halloween of Horror]]"</ref>

=== Careers ===
[[File:MolemanEarthquake.png|thumb|left|260px|Hans Moleman with his earthquake machine]]He runs an early morning radio show, on [[Springfield]]'s jazz station KJAZZ-FM, in which he introduces himself as "This is Moleman in the Morning, Good Moleman to you". One of his other jobs was driving a truck filled with sugar (which he subsequently flipped onto its side, spilling its contents, much to Homer's delight.) He is often seen driving other types of trucks as well. He was seen transporting the birthplace of Edgar Allan Poe in a truck.<ref>"[[Homer's Triple Bypass]]"</ref> He also teaches an orange-eating class at the Adult Learning Centre in Springfield.

On another occasion, it is implied that he works at a bird sanctuary, as he has to order a bird seed bell ("No, that's too big").<ref>"[[Itchy & Scratchy Land]]"</ref> He once worked as a postal worker. He once worked as a janitor at the [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant]] and received a severe head wound ("Oh no, my brains.") from [[Mr. Burns]] when Moleman asked Burns for seventeen dollars for a push-broom rebristling; Burns, high on ether, mistook him for the Lucky Charms leprechaun and went to his skull with a power drill. He has also been seen representing a Solar Power company.<ref>"[[The Last Temptation of Homer]]"</ref> Homer stumbles across Hans Moleman as the leader of a race of Mole People in an underground fortress complete with earthquake machines.<ref name="Hello Gutter, Hello Fadder"/> Before now he has also been working in a prison as someone giving out books.He has also made a short movie for the Springfield movie festival entitled "Man getting hit by football" in which his only three words were "Ow, my groin".
Most recently, he has been sighted working as a teller at the [[First Bank of Springfield]]. He also worked as a Duff Delivery man in <ref>"[[MyPods and Boomsticks]]"</ref> and a janitor at the Power plant.<ref>"[[Million Dollar Maybe]]"</ref><ref>"[[Team Homer]]"</ref>

=== Accidents ===
Hans has escaped death innumerable times, usually highly improbably. He survived when his car exploded, after Otto mistook the gremlin on the side of the schoolbus, for Moleman's AMC Gremlin (a car). He survived being thrown out of a 2 story building, he survived catching on fire due to the powerful magnifying effect of his glasses, [[Charles Montgomery Burns|Montgomery Burns]] drilling into his brain, capital punishment (in a local jail) after Homer eats his last meal, being crushed by a pizzeria rubble, being buried alive, getting stranded in the snow surrounded by wolves, getting run over by the school bus, mysteriously flying into the side of a restaurant,<ref>"[[My Sister, My Sitter]]"</ref> sinking completely into quicksand, being run over (while carrying a "U Suck" sign in the middle of countless "Keep Out" signs) by Homer Simpson when trying to dump the Pig Crap into Springfield Lake, and being engulfed by the "anti-escape orb" that was attempting to catch Marge from escaping a [[Movementarianism|Movementarian]] compound (a parody of the Rover security device from the 60s show ''the Prisoner'').

Many times people will totally disregard him, usually leading to something like death, or simply imprisonment, but since he appears, even after "dying", those later appearances could indicate he survived. He has also had several accidents where he was not severely injured. He further angered the crowd at Bart and Lisa's junior hockey final because he fell down the steps then shouted 'We paid for blood!!'.<ref>"[[Lisa on Ice]]"</ref> He also crashed his 1959 Cadillac into the side of Springfield's Planet Hype restaurant (which Marge mistook for a clever decoration). On one occasion, due to Homer's stupidity, he nearly drowned in his truck when it sank into the river after Homer blew up the bridge between Duff Brewery island and the rest of Springfield.

== Behind the Laughter ==
[[File:Principal Charming Moleman, Man With Nice Stride.jpg|thumb|left|Sketch of "Kindly Old Gent" and "Man With Nice Stride"]]
Moleman first appeared as a character model for the season two episode "[[Principal Charming]]", but he looked so shriveled and unrealistic that some one proclaimed to look like a "mole man". Before this, Moleman was known as "Kindly Old Gent". However, he was used in several episodes and later became a recurring character.

According to the episode "[[Principal Charming]]", his name was '''Ralph Melish''', which is a reference to the ''Monty Python'' sketch, ''The Adventures Of Ralph Melish: Hot Dog and Knickers'', from ''The Monty Python Matching Tie and Handkerchief''.

According to a DVD commentary for one episode, some number of viewers were offended by Moleman's appearance, and he was reused in order to annoy people of such a viewpoint. Matt Groening has claimed that Hans Moleman was inspired by Tex Avery's Droopy Dog, who shares many of Moleman's deadpan and unassuming mannerisms.

Treehouse of Horror series

2022-11-08T11:55:44Z

{{Realworld}}

[[File:Treehouse of Horror (Title Card).png|thumb|250px]]

'''''The Simpsons'' Halloween episodes''', more commonly known as '''''Treehouse of Horror'' series''', are an annual tradition in which there is a special Halloween episode consisting of three separate, self-contained pieces. These pieces usually involve the family in some horror, science fiction, or supernatural setting; they always take place outside the normal continuity of the show (and are therefore considered to be non-canon), and completely abandon any pretense of being realistic.

[[File:HangingCouch.png|thumb|250px|The Couch gag in "[[Treehouse of Horror VI]]".]]

Regular Simpsons characters play humorous special roles, occasionally being killed in gruesome ways by zombies, monsters, or even each other. Groundskeeper Willie has died many times in the Treehouse of Horror episodes, mostly by being [[Treehouse of Horror V|stuck in the back with an axe]], impaled by a sharp object, burned by a furnace and [[Treehouse of Horror XI|even once by a dolphin]].

The Halloween episodes also regularly parody many classic horror and science fiction films and episodes such as "The Shining", "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet", "To Serve Man", "Living Doll", "It's a Good Life", "A Kind of a Stopwatch", "The Little People" and "Little Girl Lost".

''Treehouse of Horror'' television marathons include: ''The Simpsons Halloween Scare-A-Thon'' in [[1993]] and ''Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror'' in [[2011]].

== Origins ==
According to DVD commentary, the reason why the episodes are non-canon is a trade-off for the writers. Writing three 7-minute segments was just too taxing for the writers, so it was proposed that they could do anything without worrying about continuity to appease them.

The yearly Halloween special was named "Treehouse of Horror" because the [[Treehouse of Horror|original special]] depicted the Simpson children in their treehouse telling scary stories to one another. In later years the series dropped the framing device of characters telling stories, but kept the ''Treehouse'' title.

[[File:Homer in the Real World (Treehouse of Horror VI).png|thumb|250px|The 3D Homer from Treehouse of Horror VI.]]

In a section of "[[Treehouse of Horror VI]]" called "Homer³," Homer and Bart go into a three-dimensional world, which Homer likens to ''{{W2|Tron|film}}'', created by Pacific Data Images, a computer animation company that would later produce ''[[Shrek]]''. This segment from the Halloween episode was also used as a segment of a film shown in the IMAX 3D film Cyberworld. This was the first and one of the few times The Simpsons have strayed from their traditional 2D animation, and the longest, as other moments consisted of live action couch gags or short claymation or CGI television and film parodies. Other Treehouse segment name parodies include "Citizen Kang", "Nightmare on Evergreen Terrace", "The Thing and I", "Hex and the City", "House of Whacks", "I've Grown a Costume On Your Face", "The Shinning" and "Reaper Madness".

== Traditions ==
For several years the characters broke the fourth wall and introduced their pieces directly to the audience. In "[[Treehouse of Horror II]]" the writers decided to give the cast and crew of the show scary names in the opening and closing credits (like "Bat Groening" and "James Hell Brooks"). This also became a tradition, and has been done in every Halloween episode since October 25, 1990 except for [[Treehouse of Horror XII|XII]] and [[Treehouse of Horror XIII|XIII]]. The names have changed in subsequent seasons, with the exception of [[Sam Simon]]'s, who left during the fourth season. He has since remained "Sam 'Sayonara' Simon."

[[File:Kang and Kodos - Treehouse of Horror VII.png|thumb|250px|Homer encounters [[Kang]] and [[Kodos]] after being abducted by them in "[[Treehouse of Horror VII]]".]]

Another mainstay of the Halloween shows is the appearance of the two space aliens [[Kang]] and [[Kodos]], introduced in the second segment of the first "Treehouse of Horror." However they are not always important to any story in the special; starting with "[[Treehouse of Horror III]]" they began appearing just to keep up the tradition. While they have had significant parts in other "Treehouse of Horror" episodes, they often only appear in the middle of a totally different story, for example, a story about zombies attacking the town will suddenly turn to them in space, watching the events and laughing maniacally at the Earthlings' suffering, before switching back to the actual story. In later years they would sometimes appear at either the beginning or end of the episode, outside of any of the stories; for example, one year they appeared between the last segment and the credits wondering why The Simpsons producers hadn't called them to be in the episode. Soon they get a call offering them to be on a commercial for something called "Old Navy".

From the second halloween episode, "shh" in the Gracie Films logo is abandoned and the Gracie Films music at the end is replaced with a pipe organ version (played in a minor key). From the fourth halloween episode a scream was added as well.

Also, at the start of Treehouse of Horror I, II, and V Marge comes out with a message urging parents not to let their children watch the program as they will suffer from nightmares; however, she gives up, saying how no one ever listens to her. This was abandoned in later seasons because the length of each episode has been reduced significantly since first few seasons and because by then the writers were sure that everyone was aware that the shows are scary. Another tradition they abandoned was including tombstones with humorous messages in the opening credits: the credits for Treehouse of Horror V include a single tombstone with the words "Amusing Tombstones" to signal this.

== Recent years ==

Although the Treehouse series is meant to be seen on Halloween, in recent years new installments have premiered after Halloween. This is due to Fox's current contract with Major League Baseball's World Series and Playoff games. If the Series does not go the full seven games, Fox usually airs the previous season's Treehouse episode on the Sunday before Halloween (or if Sunday happens to fall on Halloween). However, it has been known on many occasions for new shows to premiere on the West Coast only in time for Halloween regardless of how long the World Series lasts. It gets the full national premiere, of course, as scheduled in November, after Halloween. Another reason for the late airing is that during November, Nielsen Media Research conducts one of its four annual sweeps months - in recent years, the annual Treehouse of Horror episodes tend to draw some of the highest ratings of the season to which it belongs. Between "[[Treehouse of Horror XI]]" to "[[Treehouse of Horror XIX]]" and "[[Treehouse of Horror XXI]]" was aired in November.

FOX's arrangement with Major League Baseball was made fun of in the opening sequence for "[[Treehouse of Horror XVI]]". Kang, frustrated that the episode is being delayed by a World Series baseball game, decides to "fast forward" the game, but overdoes it, sucking the Earth, the universe, and everything else (including [[God]]) into nothingness. He then leaves a sticky note, which shows the title. Another joke about the programming of Halloween episodes in November appears in "[[Treehouse of Horror XIV]]", where Kang looks at a TV Guide and says, "Those humans. They're showing a Halloween episode. In November!" Kodos replies, "Who cares about Halloween? We've already got our Christmas decorations up!" The camera then cuts to a shot of the fireplace with Christmas decorations, complete with multi-legged stockings and alien reindeer, scattered about, and festive Christmas music plays over the opening credits.

So far, only 3 Treehouse of Horror episodes were aired before the World Series, "[[Treehouse of Horror XX]]", "[[Treehouse of Horror XXIII]]", and "[[Treehouse of Horror XXIV]]", Every other Treehouse of Horror episodes were aired right after the World Series with half of them going into November.

Other episodes that don't follow the anthology but have its elements are "[[Thanksgiving of Horror]]", a Thanksgiving special, and "[[Not It]]", a standalone Treehouse of Horror story.
== Comics Series ==
{{Main|The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror}}
From 1995 to 2017, [[Bongo Comics Group]] published a Treehouse of Horror comic series each September, originally titled ''Bart Simpson's Treehouse of Horror'', and later renamed ''The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror''. A total of 23 comics were released, and six trade paperbacks of the comics were published.

Originally, guest writers from other comic book companies were invited to submit scripts to Bongo, where the comics themselves would then be drawn by Bongo staff. Beginning with #5 (1999), the "guests" were allowed to submit both stories and art, wherein at the most Bongo would only supply the lettering and colorings of the stories [however, there are few cases of this rule being broken; i.e., "The Catastrophe on Substitute Springfields" (#7, 2001) and "The Legend of Batterface" (#10, 2004).

== Others ==
The video game ''[[Night of the Living Treehouse of Horror]]'' is based on various Treehouse of Horror segments. Additionally, the {{ap|Level 7|The Simpsons: Hit & Run|final level}} of ''[[The Simpsons: Hit & Run]]'' also borrows elements from the Treehouse of Horror episodes.

Various Treehouse of Horror-related merchandise has been released:
*[[Burger King#Merchandise|Burger King figurines]]
*[[The Simpsons Funko Pop!#Treehouse of Horror|Funko Pop! figurines]]
*[[Simpsons Halloween Village|Hawthorne Halloween Village]]
*[[Kidrobot#Simpsons Treehouse of Horror Blind Box Mini Figure Series|Kidrobot figurines]]
