Name?[edit]

Where did the name come from? Was it mentioned in "Moaning Lisa"? Phinbart - just one of the huge Bart fans! 06:43, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

She's really Ms. Pommelhorst, She was never named "ms. Barr". Bleedinggumsmurphy1 (talk) 14:26, May 17, 2014 (EDT)
I think it came from Simpsons World actually. I created the page so I guess I would have most likely done my homework on the character to see if it was right. The Solar Dragon 14:53, May 17, 2014 (EDT)
Just checked my Simpsons world and there's no mention of a Ms. Barr.Bleedinggumsmurphy1 (talk) 15:01, May 17, 2014 (EDT)
Just checked the script on the dvd for season 1. She was called Ms. Barr there./AleWi (talk) 15:25, May 17, 2014 (EDT)
Was most likely a prototype name, don't think it's canon if not in the actual episode. Bleedinggumsmurphy1 (talk) 16:47, May 17, 2014 (EDT)
In my opinion, the characters are different. 1) Ms. Barr looks slightly different to Pommelhorst in facial structure and hair colour (maybe Pommelhorst was based on her character) and 2) she was voiced by a guest star. Sure, other guest star characters have came back and been voiced by other cast members but it's rare. And they usually loom exactly the same if that's the case.

If it's in the script I'd say it's canon regardless of whether it's actually mentioned in the episode. --Nick97 (talk ~ contribs) 02:03, May 18, 2014 (EDT)
Not sure if this is good enough evidence, but in PTA disbands, Ms. Pommelhorst's name is mentioned when the teachers leave, but the Ms. Barr design appears protesting. Bleedinggumsmurphy1 (talk) 03:41, May 18, 2014 (EDT)
