'''Mr. Pettigrew''', better known as the '''Yes Guy''', also known as the '''Frank Nelson-Type''', but normally referred in-show as '''That Jerk That Goes Ye-e-e-es''' (or similar names) by [[Homer]], is a resident of [[Springfield]]. He is known for bellowing "Ye-e-e-es?!" in a rising inflection, and appears to be highly eccentric in both his speech and appearance.

== History ==
On his first appearance, when [[Homer Simpson|Homer]] asked the Yes Guy why he spoke like he did, after he had said "yes" two times with is unique tone, the Yes Guy responded that he had a stroke.<ref>"[[Mayored to the Mob]]"</ref>

He is often seen working at [[Costington's]] department store, and is apparently on good terms with [[Mr. Costington]]. When [[Lisa Simpson|Lisa]] was put on trial for teaching fellow students about Darwin, the Yes Guy was juror number twelve.<ref>"[[The Monkey Suit]]"</ref> He also once worked as an ice cream truck driver and gave [[Bart Simpson|Bart]] some free ice cream.<ref>"[[The Lastest Gun in the West]]"</ref> The Yes Guy also once worked for the reality show ''[[Frame Up]]'', where he pretended to take a phone call from the governor regarding whether a condemned Homer should be reprieved. During the call, he used his catchphrase (and a "No" version of it) several times.<ref>"[[The Frying Game]]"</ref>

Homer refers to him as "that jerk who always goes yes".<ref name=SSCCTG>"[[Marge vs. Singles, Seniors, Childless Couples and Teens and Gays]]"</ref>

== Behind the Laughter ==
The Yes Guy is a tribute to character actor {{W2|Frank Nelson|actor}}, and his familiar persona on ''The Jack Benny Program'' (modified for appearances on ''I Love Lucy'', ''The Flintstones'', ''Sanford and Son'', and others). Nelson's trademark greeting was a loud, drawn-out "Yeeeeesss?!" This was often augmented with a sarcastic "OoOOOoooh!" Originally, this character could be found in a variety of occupations, usually as a salesman or waiter, at establishments which Jack Benny or others might be patronizing, and his Simpsonian counterpart is equally omnipresent.

=== Variations ===
A [[Brazilian Yes Guy|Brazilian version]] of the Yes Guy can be seen in the episode "[[Blame It on Lisa]]", uttering a Portuguese variation of the catchphrase: "Si-i-i-im?!".
