Moevember, Week 3!

Alas, poor Moe-rick. I knew him, Moe-ratio. Wait, I shouldn't wasting this gold in the text bit that Moe-one reads. Mental Moe-te: look into doing Shakespeare characters next year.

Week 3 of ...

0389 - Ezron

This guy's carving a big ol' golden sex god cow, although in the Bible it is Mose's brother Aaron who carves the golden c...

0388 - Homer the Thief

What a strange way to start an episode!

Now, it is probably not the place of this blog to determ...

0385 - Raphael.

EMERGENCY BROADCAST.

This is the closest I'll be writing a post to it's actual publication, as this is an important correction to the "Every Simpsons Character Ever" timeline. I'll be postin...

The Way We Was - round up!

This was a big one! One of the bigger season two episodes in terms of character additions, although we'll never see most of them again (sorry to all you Coach Flanagan fans). It's sort of an import...

Moevember, Week 2!

MOE MOE-NEY, MOE MOE-BLEMS. We're back with a fresh batch of Syzslakian joy for your eyeballs!

This week we have Fred Flintst-Moe-ne, Moe-ku, Chron-Moe Trigger, Moe-gi Bear, Zor-Moe, Mach-Moe...

0387 - Waiter

The final speaking character of this episode is the waiter at the prom, who asks Homer if he would like steak or chicken.

Patreon Print - November 2024

We're a few days into Moe-vember now, and in addition to the normal entries I'm doing "Moe-dern Art,", in which I have a full Moe-related painting for each day. Today's entry - "Moe-net" - is one ...

"Moe-dern Art" - New Book!

My new book "Moe-dern Art" is an extension of the silliness of Moe-vember, in which I have made over thirty pieces featuring Springfield's favourite bartender, reimagined in a variety of classic an...

Moevember, Week 1!

It's the FOURTH year of Moevember, a time when we celebrate Mr Syzslak and all his multiversal forms. Multiverses are still popular, right?

Maybe it's just Moe-ltiverses.

I'll be posti...

0385 - Raphael or Limo Driver VOTE!

OKAY. Here is the most important act of democracy you will engage in this year.

Hopefully you have read the previous post, in which I outline this predicament, but here's a brief recap: we ne...

0385 - Raphael...?

SOUND THE EMERGENCY ALARM. It is Halloween and today's post is TERRIFYING to me.

We are in CRISIS MODE here people, and I need your help to resolve this. This may just be the most important p...

BONUS! Prom Homer, Prom Marge, Patty and Selma and Prom Artie

As it's unlikely we'll see these designs again - at least, not for a while - we might as well cover them all here. Unlike with most bonus characters, you already know who all these folk are, so her...

0384 - Clancy Bouvier

Marge's father is an unintentionally mysterious figure in the show - he rarely comes up, and only in flashback. This is the first time he comes up (although Marge's mother Jacqueline has appeared o...

Look at this friendly fella! He's like a proto-Frink.

Similar to his colleague Coach Flanagan, h...

0379 - Coach Flanagan

Although we are introduced to a lot of characters in this episode, they are not fully developed in their own right - meant only to push the story along, not as joke delivery machines in their own r...

0378 - Mrs Bloomenstein

Mrs Bloomenstein is one of the many Springfield High School staff members we meet here, and after this episode she is never seen again.

0377 - Artie Ziff

A double-whammy of significant appearances here - not only is Artie Ziff a notable character with multiple episodes, but this is the first time Jon Lovitz voices a Simpsons character!

Patreon Print - October 2024

This design came in second in the past two polls, so I thought I'd give it chance to shine this time! "THRILLHO" is a moment I've always loved, so I thought I'd try a weird trippy version of it. 2024-10-04 08:00:05 +0000 UTC View Post

0376 - Guidance Counselor

This friendly fella reminds me a little of Dr J Loren Pryor, I'm not sure if that's intentional - he's definitely nicer to Homer than Pryor is to Bart.

BONUS! Abe

This is the first appearance of Abe in a flashback.

I tried to figure out how consistent this de...

0375 - Teacher

We meet a few of the Springfield High School faculty in this episode, but none less memorable than this teacher overseeing detention.

0374 - Estelle

Estelle is an actual named character who appears only to reject Barney's promvitation. I don't care that spellcheck has put a little red squiggly line under promvitation, I am keeping it.

BONUS! Man

Here's where the career ending scandal and controversy kicks in.

While I did determine one of yesterday's crowd members gets an official numbered entry in the hallowed halls of Simpson charac...

0373 - Lady

Getting really nitpicky on the Patreon this week as we cover this feminist demonstration.
