== Biography ==
[[File:Bart Every Simpsons Ever.png|thumb|left|250px]]
[[File:Bartfolder.PNG|thumbnail|left|Bart's character folder in the Hall of Records on The Simpsons website.]]
Bart's a self-proclaimed underachiever constantly in detention. He's easily distracted (even, strangely enough, by algebraic equations). His penchant for shocking people began before he was born: Bart "mooned" [[Dr. Hibbert]] while he performed a sonogram on Marge, and moments after being born, he set fire to Homer's tie. 

[[File:Double, Double, Boy in Trouble Bart.png|thumb|right|250px|Unborn Bart inside Marge's womb]]
Bart was an unplanned pregnancy and unwanted by his father (which Homer tells him all the time)<ref>"[[Grampa vs. Sexual Inadequacy]]"</ref> after Homer and Marge, who forgot her bill-control pill,<ref>"[[Wild Barts Can't Be Broken]]"</ref> drunkenly got together in public inside the mini-golf castle at [[Sir Putt-A-Lot's Merrie Olde Fun Centre]] forcing his parents into a rushed wedding although Homer left soon after to sort out his life and get a good job and by coincidence got hired personally by [[Mr. Burns]] at the [[Springfield Nuclear Power Plant]] earlier on the same day Bart was born at [[Springfield General Hospital]] which is why Homer believed he was born in 5 minutes while it actually toke 53 hours.<ref>"[[Bart the Mother]]"</ref> He was named after the [[Bay Area Rapid Transit|BART train]].<ref>"[[Dangers on a Train]]"</ref> Baby photos of Bart have him sucking on a pacifier like his youngest sister [[Maggie]].<ref>"[[Burns' Heir]]"</ref> His has an extremely rare blood type, Double O Negative (OO-), shared with [[Mr. Burns]] so donated some to save his life and eventually lead to Mr. Burns gifted the family an enormous [[Olmec head]] now in their basement.<ref name="Blood Feud">"[[Blood Feud]]"</ref>

Bart's interests include [[Krusty the Clown]] (he is "Krusty Buddy" number 16302), skateboarding, reading comic books (especially ''{{ap|Radioactive Man|comic}}''), watching television (especially the [[Krusty the Clown Show]] and [[The Itchy & Scratchy Show]]), terrorizing [[Lisa]], playing video games, helping Lisa solve various problems (e.g. reuniting Krusty with his [[Hyman Krustofsky|estranged Father]]), and pulling off various pranks (like mooning unsuspecting people and prank calling [[Moe]] at his [[Moe's Tavern|tavern]]).
[[File:Marge, Maggie, Lisa & Bart.png|thumb|Bart with his mother and sisters (Bart wanted a brother)<ref>"[[And Maggie Makes Three]]"</ref><ref>"[[Oh Brother, Where Bart Thou?]]"</ref>]] 

Bart also sprays graffiti under the alias 'El Barto', and regularly frequents the [[Kwik-E-Mart]] (for bubblegum and [[Squishee]]s) and [[The Android's Dungeon]]. Bart hinted his favorite movies are ''Jaws'' and the ''Star Wars'' trilogy.<ref name="Bart the General">"[[Bart the General]]"</ref> His best friend's [[Milhouse Van Houten]].

Bart's a polyglot and can speak several languages with varying degrees of fluency. Though he hasn't demonstrated the ability since his trip to [[France]] as an exchange student, he speaks near-perfect French.<ref>"[[The Crepes of Wrath]]"</ref> He also learned Spanish in a matter of hours in preparation for the family's trip to [[Brazil]].<ref>"[[Blame It on Lisa]]"</ref> Upon learning Brazilians speak Portuguese and not Spanish, Homer orders his son to forget what he learned, prompting Bart to strike himself over the head until he forgot the language. Bart also speaks Japanese (which he also learned in a couple of hours in prison along with Homer, and is also shown speaking Japanese,<ref>"[[A Star Is Burns]]"</ref> Cantonese and Latin. His advanced linguistic skills may be inherited from Homer, who also speaks advanced languages, including penguin. He was also shown to be a skilled drummer.<ref>"[[Jazzy and the Pussycats]]"</ref> He was a player in the [[Mighty Pigs]] Peewee Hockey League Team. He's also quite capable of firing advanced firearms with a frighteningly immense amount of accuracy, as evidenced when, while at [[Rommelwood Military School|Military School]] as a result of a prank involving bullhorns, he was given a RGB6 Grenade Launcher by the firing range instructor due to his belief Bart will have most likely known how to operate handguns, and managed to destroy four of five targets before one of his shots missed and ended up hitting Principal Skinner's car just as he was about to unlock it, and Bart implied he deliberately missed the fifth target and was actually aiming for Skinner's car that time.<ref>"[[The Secret War of Lisa Simpson]]"</ref> He later displayed a similar proficiency towards weapons when he managed to hijack a tank by stealing the keys, drive it over to the park, and managed to shoot down a MLB satellite with surprising accuracy all by himself. Although at that point, he was also under the effects of an experimental drug supposed to suppress his Attention Deficit Disorder.<ref name="Brother's Little Helper">"[[Brother's Little Helper]]"</ref>
[[File:Bartyytt.jpg|thumb|left|Homer strangling Bart]]
Bart can also drive vehicles with surprising skill for his age. He has his own driving license, given to him after saving Springfield from a fire.<ref name="Little Big Girl">"[[Little Big Girl]]"</ref> Although he was seen driving before with a fake license at times.<ref name="Bart on the Road">"[[Bart on the Road]]"</ref> He still possesses it, using it to steal [[Principal Skinner]]'s car to get to [[Jimbo]]'s house.<ref>"[[24 Minutes]]"</ref>

He's the most misunderstood of the family, constantly frustrated by the narrow-minded people of [[Springfield]], who judge him merely by his thoughts and actions.

Bart's also a skilled chef. He cooked a three course meal for his parents and made a dessert.<ref>"[[Oh Brother, Where Bart Thou?]]"</ref>

When he was made Hall Monitor, he also had a great degree of skill in enforcing the law and rules.<ref name="Separate Vocations">"[[Separate Vocations]]"</ref> This trait was later exemplified when he, in a similar fashion to a bouncer, removed Homer Simpson from the premises of the La Maison Derrière after he continuously heckled Marge's ventriloquist performance.<ref>"[[Bart After Dark]]"</ref>

=== Behavior ===
{{Quote|I can't believe that it was physically possible, but this both sucks and blows|Bart}}
[[File:Bart, Lisa and Maggie playing.png|thumb|left|Artwork of Bart, Lisa and Maggie from [[season 24]]]]
[[File:Bart skate - s25 artwork.png|thumb|right|Artwork of Bart from [[season 25]]]]
[[File:Bart skateboarding.png|thumb|right|Artwork of Bart from '''Animation Domination''']]
Bart's considerably motivated in disrupting the routine at [[Springfield Elementary School|Springfield Elementary]], and his pranks are often elaborately complex, but can lead to unfortunate consequences. Despite his behaviour, his actions and speech frequently show considerable mental agility, street-smarts, and understanding. When Bart became a hall monitor for Springfield Elementary, his grades went up, showing he only struggles because he doesn't pay any attention.<ref name="Separate Vocations"/> Bart suffers from {{W|Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder|Attention Deficit Disorder}}<ref name="Brother's Little Helper"/>
On the other hand, Bart often seems to have trouble understanding even the simplest concepts, like the word "irony", what the equator is and the logo on his globe ("Rand McNally") isn't actually a country. It was also once implied his mischievous behavior may have been a result of Marge accidentally ingesting a droplet of champagne while pregnant with him.<ref>"[[Double, Double, Boy in Trouble]]"</ref>

Labeled as an "underachiever" by authority figures, Bart rides an academic rollercoaster, his grades, running the Loop-the-Loop from "F" to "D-" and back again. But he can be ingenious when the chips are down—long as his ingenuity's not applied to anything school-related. He once learned portions of the Talmud to help reunite his idol, [[Krusty the Clown]], with his father, Rabbi [[Hyman Krustofsky]]. Once, after an incident where Bart unleashed a surf wave across the school damaging property (and also saving Ned Flanders, on fire at the time), he was given an experimental drug for Attention Deficit Disorder called Focusyn, causing his intellectual potential to reach its maximum, to the extent he was even capable of tutoring a Navajo boy. Unfortunately, the drug also shortly thereafter drove him paranoid as a side effect, where he started sensing Major League Baseball's actually spying on them with a satellite, ended up going beserk when the prospect of being taken off Focusyn became apparent, sneaking into [[Fort Fragg]], stealing keys to one of its tanks, causing a wake of destruction by driving in the process, and later used its cannon to blow away a MLB satellite, proving his suspicions correct.<ref name="Brother's Little Helper"/>

Although he gets into endless trouble and is sometimes shallow and selfish, Bart also exhibits many qualities of high integrity. He, on a few occasions, helped the love life of [[Seymour Skinner|his school Principal]] and [[Edna Krabappel|his teacher]], despite the fact he often terrorizes them, and he often befriends outcasts like [[Milhouse]]. One example of his quasi sense of honor is when Bart stands up for [[Ralph Wiggum]] at the cost of peer popularity.<ref>"[[This Little Wiggy]]"</ref> He was once sent to a juvenile detention center when he played a serious prank involving faux wedding gifts and a fake wedding.<ref>"[[The Wandering Juvie]]"</ref> He also has legitimate guilt, whenever he gets either Krabappel or Principal Skinner fired, especially if it wasn't his intention to do so. Like in the former case where his plan on getting her laid back by spiking her drink backfired when she ended up getting herself fired,<ref name="Bart Gets a Z">"[[Bart Gets a "Z"]]"</ref> and the latter case where his dog ended up in the ventilation shafts and got trapped along with Willie when he intended to use Santa's Little Helper for show and tell.<ref name="ReferenceA">"[[Sweet Seymour Skinner's Baadasssss Song]]"</ref>

=== Appearance ===
[[File:Bart natural red hair.png|thumb|125px|Bart's natural red hair]]
Bart has yellow/blond spiky hair, although it's actually naturally pale red (but it stays yellow when he's out in the sun). He wears an orange short-sleeved shirt, blue short pants, and blue-white shoes. In some of the earlier series, he's seen wearing a light blue short-sleeved shirt. He sometimes wears his "lucky" red baseball cap and often carries around his skateboard or a slingshot. In the winter, he wears long pants with a jacket. On special events, Bart wears a dark blue suit with matching shorts or pants with a purple tie with his hair sometimes combed and parted in the middle.

=== Alter Egos & Aliases ===
Bart sprays graffiti around Springfield using the name "'''''[[El Barto]]'''''", and his superhero alter-ego's [[Bartman]]. He called himself [[Cupcake Kid]]<ref>"[[Simple Simpson]]"</ref> when Homer became [[Pieman]]. Bart's also known as "The Devil in Blue Shorts"<ref>"[[Special Edna]]"</ref> by the organizers of the Teacher of the Year Awards, but he was believed to be an urban legend.

=== Treehouse of Horror ===
Bart learns he was born a {{W|Siamese twin}} and his secret brother, [[Hugo Simpson|Hugo]], was driven crazy after they were separated as newborns and Hugo grew up alone chained up in the attic.<ref>"[[Treehouse of Horror VII]]"</ref>

=== Future ===
As with other characters, his future follows no defined and logical pattern and simply changes to suit the episode. At the age of 18, Bart's a senior at [[Springfield High School]]. He styles his hair and wears an earring. He speaks three languages, apparently one being armpit noises, and one's hinted to be French. He pursues a relationship with a classmate named [[Jenda]] who denies his proposal because he doesn't have a steady career plan. As a result, Bart pursues a career at the [[Kwik-E-Mart]]: Whether he kept the job's not mentioned. After saving Mr. Burns from a robbery, he's awarded a scholarship to Yale, meant to go to Lisa. He gives the scholarship back to her so she doesn't have to suffer a bleak future with Milhouse.
At the age of 25, he's a building demolisher and vehicle crusher, and also attends law school. He's more kind in general, as opposed to his modern-day disposition. At the age of around 40, he's taken to the hospital after eating too many [[Fish Logs]]. He seems to have lost his building demolishing company and works at a construction site. He got the "Mother" tattoo Marge [[Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire|prevented him from getting]], as well as a tattoo of [[Krusty the Clown]] on his chest. He receives a digestive tract transplant from [[Üter Zorker]] which saves his life.
At age 40, he's a poor guitarist and alcoholic who dropped out of the DeVry Institute. He lives in a ratty beach house alongside Ralph, the only other member of Bart's band. He's addicted to a form of drug, likely marijuana. He helps Lisa, President, get out of debt with other countries. In return, Lisa legalizes the use of cannabis.
At age 50, Bart appears to have straightened up and graduated law school, because he's Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.<ref name="Itchy & Scratchy: The Movie">"[[Itchy & Scratchy: The Movie]]"</ref><ref>"[[Flanders' Ladder]]"</ref> At the age of 70, he lives at the [[Springfield Retirement Castle]] with [[Milhouse]].<ref>"[[The Boys of Bummer]]"</ref> At the age of 83, he finds true love, and dies one minute later (according to Professor Frink). 

Bart frequently imagined deary futures for himself which he still found cool including a drifter<ref>"[[Separate Vocations]]"</ref> or a [[Test Subject Bart|test subject for dangerous food additives]]<ref>"[[Whacking Day]]"</ref> or a lardo on workman's comp<ref>"[[King-Size Homer]]"</ref> and Marge also imagined Bart becoming a sleazy male stripper.<ref name="Itchy & Scratchy: The Movie"/>

== Behind the Laughter ==
=== Creation ===
[[File:MG01frame2.png|thumb|The first appearances of Homer and Bart 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 was 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'' will force 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, substituting "Bart" for his own name, because he decided it will have been too obvious for him to have named the character Matt. Bart made his debut with the rest of the Simpsons clan April 19, 1987 in the [[The Simpsons shorts|Tracey Ullman short]] "[[Good Night]]". The name "Bart" is an anagram of "brat". Groening conceived Bart as an extreme version of the typical misbehaving child character, merging all of the negative traits of characters like Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn into one person. Groening's older brother Mark provided most of the inspiration for Bart. Groening also said he found the premise of ''Dennis the Menace'' disappointing and was inspired to create a character actually a menace.

Bart was originally going to be named "Mort" however this was changed during pre-production. The middle initial J. in "Bartholomew J. Simpson" was done as a tribute to [[Bullwinkle J. Moose]] and {{W|Rocky the Flying Squirrel|Rocket "Rocky" J. Squirrel}} of''[[The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show]]''.

=== Voice Catchphrases ===
[[Nancy Cartwright]] originally auditioned for the role of Lisa, but soon thought that her voice was too deep for Lisa. Matt Groening let her try out for the part, and upon hearing her read, gave her the job on the spot.
Bart's catchphrase "Eat My Shorts" was an ad-lib by Cartwright in one of the original table readings, harking back to an incident when she was at college. His other catchphrases included "¡Ay, caramba!" and "Don't have a cow man!" - the former being his first words after seeing Homer and Marge 'enjoying themselves' in bed - but these dropped out of use as the series progressed (as mentioned in "[[Summer of 4 Ft. 2]]", when Bart complains that Lisa stole his line). Whenever he introduces himself, he often says, "I'm Bart Simpson, who the hell are you?"

=== Reception ===
[[File:South Park - Cartoon Wars Part II - Bart Simpson's chalkboard gag.png|right|thumb|Bart Simpson on ''[[South Park]]'' episode, "{{W|Cartoon Wars Part II}}".]]
In 1998, ''[[Time]]'' magazine selected Bart as one of the 100 most influential people of the 20th century — the only fictional character to make the list. He had previously appeared on the cover the December 31, 1990 edition. Both Bart and Lisa ranked #11 in ''TV Guide's'' "Top 50 Greatest Cartoon Characters of All Time".

During the show's early years, Bart was rebellious and frequently escaped without punishment, which led some parents' groups and conservative spokespeople to believe he provided a poor role model for children. This prompted [[George H. W. Bush]] to rally, "We're going to keep trying to strengthen the American family. To make them more like the Waltons and less like the Simpsons.", to which Bart replied with "Hey, we're just like the Waltons. We're praying for an end to the Depression, too."

Bart's catchphrases, "¡Ay, caramba!", "Don't have a cow, man!" and "Eat my shorts!" were featured on t-shirts in the early days of the show's run. The latter two phrases were rarely actually spoken on the show itself until after they became popular through merchandise, and the use of many of these catchphrases has declined in recent seasons. The use of catchphrase-based humor was mocked in the episode "[[Bart Gets Famous]]" in which Bart gets famous on the Krusty show for saying the line "I didn't do it."

In his book ''Planet Simpson'', Chris Turner describes Bart as a nihilist. Bart's character traits of rebelliousness and disrespect for authority have been likened to that of America's founding fathers, rendering him an updated version of American icons Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn, rolled into one.
Bart is the most depicted ''Simpsons'' character on various memorabilia such as toys, books, comics, T-shirts, car decals, and even graffiti art. Bart, and other Simpsons characters, appeared in numerous commercials for {{W|Butterfinger}} candy bars from 1990–2001, with the slogan ''"Nobody better lay a finger on my Butterfinger!"''. This association was parodied in [[Barting Over|an episode]] when he discovered that he was in a TV commercial when he was a baby; Bart says that he doesn't remember being in a commercial, then holds up a Butterfinger and eats it. Bart briefly appears in the entrance video used by World Wrestling Entertainment Superstar Shawn Michaels Bart has appeared in several other shows. He is featured in the ''[[South Park]]'' episode "{{W|Cartoon Wars Part II}}". He is not referred to by name, nor do any of the characters react to him as if he were a well known personality, but the character specifically mentions the events of "[[The Telltale Head]]" when [[Eric Cartman]] asks him to name the "most badass thing" he has done.

=== Foreign dubs ===
Like in the original American English version, Bart is voiced by a female actress in several languages. However, in some dubs like in the Brazilian Portuguese, Hungarian, and Czech, Bart is voiced by a male actor instead of a female.
