Mine would be have to be moe and homer

Homer. Barney gets the best lines though.
Moe: Amanda Hug'n'kiss? Why can't I find Amanda Hug'n'kiss?
Barney: Maybe your standards are too high.

Homer.

homer is hard to look past.

i also enjoy lenny & carl's relationship, and the whole mafia when they get involved.

Chief Wiggum. Followed closely by Sideshow Bob, Ranier Wolfcastle, Dr. Nick and Homer.

McGarnagle and Hank Scorpio deserve mentions as well.

Ralph

Hank Scorpio and Homer aside, Ralph.

:lol: Want some cream?

This thread has got me youtubing Simpsons moments. Thank you, FFT.

Oh good, I'm not the only one. :lol:

Homer and Bart.

Moleman

Moe, love it when he goes ape shit, also love how pathetic Milhouse is, obviously Homer is up there for everyone too.

There are so many uniquely hilarious characters on the show though, and the minor characters can often steal the show.

/thread

The obvious choice for me is Homer...

But besides Homer I would have to say either Moleman or Wolfcastle...

Homer: (about Rainer Wolfcastle's SUV) What kind of mileage does it get?
Rainer Wolfcastle: One highway, zero city.

Mr burns is classic also

Seems to me that people are just naming every simpsons character that they can think of :lol:

Yeah episodes in which he plays a big role are always classics.

Dad, what are you doing down there?




Washing my fat guy hat, honey.

Mr. Snrub >>>>>> Mr. Burns

Lionel Hutz aka Miguel Sanchez aka Dr Nguyen

Hi, I'm Troy McClure. You might remember me from such films as "you are reading this in my voice", "Blinking and breathing manually: you're now doing it" and "Why can't my tongue find a comfortable place in my mouth?"

In order

Apu
Flanders
Principal Skinner
Grampa Simpson

Lenny
Carl
Chief Wiggum
Dr Nick

and I thought Barney in the earlier seasons was hillarious

El Barto. I like looking in the background and spotting "one time characters"

Just realized that there's not many other shows with minor characters as great as the ones from The Simpsons.

Aside from Quagmire, a few kids from South Park, and Mr. Garrison, there's no real standouts from similar shows outside of the main characters. Not including Cleveland because he has his own show.

Flanders when he has that blow up at the whole town, when his house is hammered by the hurricane hahaha the best

defintely homer.
Hank Scorpio was great.
ralph is up there also.
i just like them all.

"My cat's breath smells like cat food"

How about best line???

In a show like this it would be impossible to call a best line.

This is a quality scene

One of my favourite lines would have to be Abe Simpson defending Homer:

"My Homer is not a communist. He may be a liar, a pig, an idiot, a communist, but he is not a porn star"

Sure there is. Scruffy and Nixon in Futurama. Krieger and Barry in Archer. Butters and Big Gay Al in South Park.

The only real difference is that having been on air for over 20 years now, you're more familiar with the Simpsons' secondary characters.

Battle of the simpsons lines anyone?

one of my favourite lines is "i don't need to be careful, i've got a gun" which is followed by one of my favourite scenes of all time when he has to wait for it with all the moving targets cruising past.

Kirk Van Houten is also brilliant.

Would be a much better idea imo

It'd end Hank Scorpio v Homer.

32 or 64 nominations?

I'd say 32 would be enough.

Haha brilliant!

That from rock bottom? 
On a different note the group got zucced for about 8 hrs because someone posted - oops, I just ate my own poop... and it got reported

Yeah, Rock Bottom & Four Finger Discount are the two groups I follow. Invariably whatever you see in one group you'll see in the other a couple of minutes later.
Rock Bottom has been unsuspended now.

What was the reason? Flagged for something offensive but I couldn't point to which post would be that bad.

Lionel Hutz for me.

Lionel Hutz "Mr. Simpson, don't you worry, I watched Matlock in a bar last night. The sound wasn't on, but I caught the gist of it."

Sideshow mel 

For pure impact Hank Scorpio. Lionel Hutz also very good. Chief Wiggum has plenty of hilarious scenes. I think really it's just the older episodes have joke after joke and it just cracks me up how good the deliver is.

Hank Scorpio has to be the best of the one episode characters during the classic simpsons era.

Or Rodney Dangerfield as Mr Burn's son. 

I'm not even going to try to pick out of the regular characters. 

Oh yes how could I forget!? Larry Burns just hilarious.

I still hum the Scorpio theme song from time to time.

Dunno about favourite but really enjoyed the few episodes that Homer's brother and Mum were in.  Out of the hundreds of episodes they've done I think Homer's brother was in only one (the excellent one where Homer designed a car) and his mum in 2. 

Homer's brother was in 2 from memory: the one we're homer finds out he has a brother and the one where he comes to live with the simpson family after going bankrupt.

On a side not the episode "stark raving dad" is not available on Disney's streaming service due to Michael Jackson not being in it. God I hate cancel culture.

Did MJ voice that character?

Yes. 
From memory he did voice it but wasn't credited with it on-screen.

Yeah he didn't want to be credited . So he used one of his many alias's he had. 

Never! Never, Marge! I can't live the buttoned-down life like you, I want it all! The terrifying lows, the dizzying highs, the creamy middles! Sure, I might offend a few of the bluenoses with my cocky stride and musky odours. Oh, I'll never be the darling of the so-called "City Fathers" who cluck their tongues, stroke their beards, and talk about "What's to be done with this Homer Simpson?"
