In the past he was an A-student but lost it all due the alcohol consumption, seen after that as a disgrace to the family. He had a great potential and had a Harvard opportunity but Homer introduced him to the beer before they taken the SATs. He also started drinking after his sweetheart left Springfield to become a TV reporter.

Despite all those years of alcoholism he still happens to have the same potential like in the time that he was an astronaut candidate and leaving the beer aside to take the test, he regained his diction and balance and proved to be a great candidate, but immediately relapsed after drinking for celebration, non-alcoholic champagne.

He remains a decent person even if he has a bad condition and prove to be a friend in need for Homer Simpson, even if he was the one to put beer in his hand.


2. Crusty the Clown

Best Characters in The Simpsons, played by Dan CastellanetaThis character really annoys me in some sort of manner, being ridiculous created as a temper and discussable actions in which he finds our pain as a fuel. He never did something good in his whole life and somehow resembles nowadays politicians.

His main characteristics are cynics, he is a gambling-addicts numerous times actually, making stakes with his life at some point, and he is quite a smoker. He would be the last persons in real life to host a TV show but in this film it doesn’t really count.

However he remains the children in Springfield’s hero despite his incompetence in teaching something good to them. He has also a chimp that’s called Mr. Teeny which is fond of skating and smoking.

He always seem to have it off hand, doing only the bad things in life, representing nowadays entertainers who would do anything for a bunch of money in their wallet and seemingly a bad role model for every child possible in this world, being represented as a clown, with no one to exceed him saying to us that all are the fucking same and we must not adore those kinda persons.


1. Homer Simpson

Best Characters in The Simpsons, played by Dan CastellanetaThe typical kinda American father, a little dumb, working all times on small gigs, getting only one raise in his history of money bringer in the house. Around him and the baby evolve the whole action.

He is still a great father nonetheless having actually a carrying heart for his family and not a soul more, his family being actually his only friend pool from which he draws his creative energy and surprising development of the future actions.

Even though he carries the name of a well-known philosopher, he is one of the most stupid characters I’ve seen on TV, having only Dumb and Dumber to overtake him in brainless actions.

He tries every time to amuse the crap outta you with his sense of humor which is actually born from the role of absurdity over the lives matters. The most important thing is that almost always the episodes turn out to have nice endings, the Disney kinda finishing action in which you aren’t left with a sour taste over time from the fact that you didn’t solve anything great.

And that’s what are the TV shows for, if you are left empty-handed in solving something that day you get the solving virtually via the show and making you involved in the actual show purpose, getting you on the stake then get you off of it. “Yes I had important chores today… to fully watch an episode of The Simpsons and nothing more.

He is definitely a role model in our lives but not in the good way, in the way that suggests “ this is the how not to fuck up your life”, be less of him and you will prosper in life, be more like him and you will swear the shit outta your brains and most probably shoot them as well. Poor Homer…
