Character Information

Mrs. Glick is an elderly woman who resided in Springfield.
Biography
Mrs. Glick lived in the Simpsons' neighborhood. Bart met her when he was trying to earn money to buy a collector's item comic book. Mrs. Glick put Bart to work doing chores around her house, but because she paid him very poorly, he quickly grew to loathe her. During one of Bart's work sessions with Mrs. Glick, she showed him "an old lady thing" where she dyed her wedding dress black for her husband's funeral. Mr. Glick has never been seen, apparently having passed away long before Bart met Mrs. Glick.[1]
Doctor Hibbert confessed to once leaving his car keys inside her while operating.[2] She also tried to sell a candy dish for ninety dollars that she forcefully insisted could only be used for storing candy.[3] Mrs. Glick once took the heart donor ticket off her I.D., along with many other people around her.[4]
Mrs. Glick is elderly and possibly suffering from dementia; consequently, her grasp on reality can be questioned at times. When residents of Springfield were at the Kwik-E-Mart stocking up food for a hurricane, she grabbed Lisa's head, thinking she was a pineapple, and carried her on her shopping cart along with Ralph (whom she thought was a pumpkin). Ralph then revealed that Mrs. Glick planned on cooking them into a pie.[5]

It is revealed that Mrs. Glick was a long-time friend of Mrs. Bellamy. However, given that Mrs. Bellamy does not exist, but is a fictional character created for the reality show Frame Up, this could mean the show's producers either hired Mrs. Glick to be part of the cast or knew of her dementia and took advantage of it to get her to go along with the story.[6]
Behind the Laughter
- Following her debut in the episode "Three Men and a Comic Book", Mrs. Glick became a recurring minor character, often seen at the hospital or the Springfield Retirement Castle. In addition to minor speaking roles, she also lingers in the background of various episodes, often laughing toothlessly. Groundskeeper Willie once even made a remark about it, quoting "How come yer always around?!", frightening Mrs. Glick.
- In her first appearance, Mrs. Glick was voiced by Cloris Leachman. In all her appearances since then, Mrs. Glick is voiced by Tress MacNeille.
