Patrons get TWO prints this month! The people voted for a Moevember print based on last year's design, and it felt only right to do one for this year too! I gotta say, they look really good together:

You fell for my trap, you fool!
Last week I told you we'd probably never see "Old Lady" again, but here she is, and she's dyed her hair and hooked up with one of the other residents of the Retirement Castle!
They're adorable, I hope they ha...

A new week and a new episode! Our first new friend in "Life On The Fast Lane" is this mall security guard who appears a full 19 years before the movie "Paul Blart: Mall Cop", making him a true pioneer.
Worth noting for posterity that this i...

Episode 8 is in the CAN. A few major characters in this one! Springfield is starting to take shape - the inclusion of many characters we've seen before in the mob scene really makes it start to feel like this is a consistent town full of recurring faces. I think we can all agree the most lasting and recognisable character to come out of th...

Our final character in The Telltale Head is a very minor one, just the way I like it. He appears in the dramatization of Jebidiah Springfield's life on TV, but he does make a distinct fake roar sound, allowing him inclusion in this prestigious project.

One last minor trip to obscurity before we wrap up this episode:

We have come to the end of this moe-st glorious month. Thank you all for indulging me in this stupidity.
The final batch of Moes are: Moe-ker, Moe-toro, Porc-Moe Ross-Moe, Charmoeleon, Moe-ki, Moe-nion, Ne-Moe, and Pinocchi-Moe.
Will I keep this up next year? Unlikely! I have run out of ridiculous puns.

This counts as a full character because he talks to Bart through the latter half of this episode, with lip-sync and everything!
And of course, it is far more recognisable than most of the characters that we even cover here, appearing in the town ...

Snowball II appeared long before this episode, with a "line" even, in the first episode:
But I'm including her here because of the little noise she makes in Bart's stealth sequence, and also because it seemed wrong that Santa's Little Helper had ...

Moe. Moe. Moe.
Here we have El-moe, Moe-fessor Frink, Moe-rothy Gale, Scare-Moe, Iron Moe, Moe-star Runner, Tomat-Moe, Danny Zuk-Moe and Moe-by Dick.
Are these puns getting worse or better?

I am stretching the plausibility of this silly project here, huh?
He gets status as a bonus character because he...uh...has no lines. But if he did have a line it would probably be "argh" or perhaps "ugh".

Do not worry folks, I went back and checked - this is NOT Mr Chupo, the candy store employee from Bart The Hero. They clearly look different, and they spell and pronounce their names differently. Springfield is a town with two dedicated candy stores, whi...

Apu is probably the most significant character that we had not gotten to yet. Well today is finally his day to shine!
I think the reason it has taken this long to get to him is that his role shifts drastically after the first season or two. We kn...

This time we have Vincent Van Moe, Moe-nel Sanders, Moe-nald McDonald, Moe-d Runner, Moe-boas Fünke, Moe-key Mouse, Moe-nald Duck, Shrek the Moe-gre and Indiana Moe-ns!
Hope you're enjoying the moe-dness!

Considering how prominent the Aztec Theater is in Springfield (I'd say it's a b-list location), it's surprising that this guy is a one time appearance.
Most of the time when we see employees at this particular cinema, they are some form of squeak...

I love when the milestone numbers sync up with total nobodies. The actors from Space Mutants 4: The Trilogy Continues must have terrible agents, because they don't show up in any of the show's many other fictional films.
Thanks for joining me for 150 characters! It's so absurd that we've gotten this far, and even more absurd that we still ...

Happy Halloween! Let's celebrate with a spooooky look at Springfield's in-universe horror franchise! I totally planned this and the date lining up was definitely on purpose!
This is one of two actors who appears in Space Mutants 4: The Trilogy Continues.

Another surprise surname, as revealed in season 18's "24 Minutes", so I did a little digging...and it's messy, which is what we like to see.
"Starbeam" seems to come from the fact that Dolph's parents were hippies, although I have not found the e...

I've known some of these characters most of my life, and they still find ways to surprise me. Zzyzwicz? Who knew? I keep having to check the spelling every time I encounter it.
The most noteworthy thing about Kearney is his age, apparently being an adult man who still attends high school. In season 13 he tells us he is a teenager and the f...

Corky James Jones, or Jimbo as we generally know him, is a character whose purpose will shift depending on what character's point of view we see him from.
To Bart, or any of the younger characters, Jimbo is a threat, a menace, the top of the food chain. He is an unsurpassable obstacle, a force of nature, a necessary part of the schoolyard ...

The lynchpin of the show's central thesis hinges on this character, I can't believe we've finally gotten to her:

As this is the first time in the show that the Simpsons attend church, this is the first time we see these recognisable outfits, which are pretty consistent throughout the show. A couple of notes:
- slicking down Bart's hair like that really makes me question how it works exactly. The spikes appear to usually be protruding from the end of ...
