Character Information
|
- For characters named Louie see: Louie.
- For Bart's cow in "Apocalypse Cow": see Lou (cow).
Lou is a police sergeant, and, by far, the most intelligent and competent officer of the Springfield Police. He is used as a foil to Chief Wiggum, and often takes the time to point out Wiggum's mistakes (often while a crime, or the pursuit of a criminal is still in progress).
Contents
Role in The Simpsons
He speaks more than his counterpart Eddie. Although he rarely comes up, when he does he is in an police uniform.
Education
Although he has never stated so explicitly, other characters have intimated that he is a graduate of Princeton University. Following his undergraduate career, Lou applied and was accepted to law school at an unspecified university, but was forced to drop out as he could not afford the tuition.

At one point, before the series' inception, Lou was married to a woman named Amy. "Bart of War" shows Lou is then divorced from his wife.
