There are a lot of threads around the internet about favourite Simpson characters. It always spurs me to think about characters i dont like. The Simpsons are probably my favourite TV series, except the last 25 seasons or so, but there are characters that i just dont “get”. I dont find them funny or even all out annoying. Which are yours?
Heres my useless character list:
-Raplh Wiggum
-Otto (lazy made character)
-Whoever Lisa breaks his heart ("i cho chose you)
-Snowball the cat
-The twins (rarely funny)
-Mona Simpson, Homers mum (her episodes always bore me)
-Maude Flanders
-Bumblebee man (he is referencing to something i dont know anything about here in norway)
-Squeaky-Voiced Teen with acne
-The Yes Guy
Well that seems to be it. Any disagreements, or characters to add?
The Yes Guy is an annoying parody of one gag (from the Jack Benny show, originally, I think) of a well-respected radio and TV actor who did many different kinds of bits.
My votes would be for one-note characters. Disco Stu, Bumblebee Man, Hans Moleman.
But the most hated character for me is Fred Grimes, or Grimey, as he was know to his friends. Mostly because he was made to make fun of people like me, that took continuity too seriously. Haha. Very funny. It is to laugh.
Moleman! Somebody over here mentioned him. He is really really boring and uninteresting. He should have been in the threadstart together with Disco Stu
I enjoy her, especially her poem about snowball. Shes not funny as such, but shes a side character that drives a lot of the narrative of a lot of the episodes.
