The TV show \*\*The Simpsons \*\* has had literally hundreds of different characters over the years, from regulars, recurring characters, one-time appearances, celebrity appearances, etc. The challenge today is to name at least 100 separate characters that have appeared on **The Simpsons**. Now I know that some posters could name 100+ characters all by themselves, so here’s the catch: - Nobody can identify more than one character in a post - Nobody can post more than one time in this thread Therefore, if we play correctly, we will need at least 100 posts in order to meet the challenge. I’ll go first. **Sideshow Bob** ---
