History Characters / TheSimpsonsOtherRecurringCharacters

* PetTheDog: Make no mistake, Texan is not a very nice man, and he certainly is willing to do anything for profit if he thinks he can get away with it. But despite everything he does, he has a genuinely nice side to him and is willing to do what’s right from time to time, even if it means having to part with some of his precious money.

* PetTheDog: Texan might not be the nicest guy in Springfield, but he’s not entirely evil and is willing to be nice from time to time.

He is a friend of Grandpa Simpson and Jasper Beardly. Voiced by Creator/HankAzaria.

* EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference: In her early appeareances in "The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show" and "Girly Edition" she's shown as a brunette with dark brown hair.

* {{Foil}}: To Marge ("Occupation?" "...Hrrmmm... Homemaker.") Simpson. While Marge comes across quaint and out-of-date, even according to Groening himself, Naegle epitomizes everything wrong with the late '80s/early '90s businesswoman: androgynous hair, shoulderpads, a patronizing attitude and an utter disdain for children and families in general.

* IHaveNoSon: Was initially this toward Krusty (though he didnt mean it literally, as he explains to Bart). He eventually grew out of it.

** In the most recent Season 33 episode revolving around her, she suffers no reprecussions for stealing her father's homemade beer or taking Lisa to a party full of teenagers and abandoning her to make out with a boy. If anything, the episode rewards her at the end.

* AffablyEvil: Crosses over with BenevolentBoss. One comic had them abduct all the right-handed people on Earth (or at least in Springfield) to make clothing for them, but they are pretty lax bosses who treat their workers nicely. Depending on the writer, they can be plesant at times.

* HonorAmongThieves: Even in their worst appearances, there's no denying they care about each other and have each other's backs. This was best examplified in "The Monkey's Paw"[[note]]The unofficial title for Lisa's Nightmare in [=THoH=] II[[/note]] where, during the EasilyThwartedAlienInvasion, Kang waits for Kodos before they retreat Earth when he could have easily taken off without him.

* FinalBoss: Of ''VideoGame/TheSimpsonsGame'', fought in a round of a ''VideoGame/DanceDanceRevolution''-like minigame.

* OddFriendship: Professor Frink has frequent contact with Lisa Simpson better than the rest of the Simpsons family because she is more interested in science and makes more frequent visits to places such as the Natural History Museum and the Observatory. "Frinkcoin" has him confirm that he considers her his friend.

->Voiced by: Alex Rocco (with Hank Azaria occasionally substituting)

* AmbiguouslyBi: In one episode he takes glee at being capable of taking a picture of Patty and Selma naked and in another he accepts being handed a handful of dirty magazines while saying that this will prevent his (all-male) crew from having sex with each other out of desperation (but they all look at him when he says this). It's pretty much stated that he becomes way too sex-starved for his own good with his long sea trips. A recent episode reveals he has a wife.

Two poor orphan siblings. Voiced by Pamela Hayden and Creator/TressMacNeille.

Miss Springfield is a beauty pageant winner and the secret wife of Mayor Quimby. Voiced by Pamela Hayden.

* ThrowTheDogABone: In "Pay Pal", while they're working at the grocery store, Shauna Chalmers kisses Gil to stop him from rambling on about one of his former jobs:

* {{Catchphrase}}: Yeeeeahaw!

* CatchPhrase: She's "number one on the west side".

* CatchPhrase: "That's a paddlin'."

* CatchPhrase: "Just stamp the ticket" and "You sicken me".

* {{Catchphrase}}: "EEE-Yeeeeeeeeesssss?"

* {{Catchphrase}}: Mrs. Vanderbilt tends to say "Oh, good heavens!" when she sees something shocking.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: He makes no speaking appearances after Season 8.

The legendary founder of Springfield. Voiced by Creator/HarryShearer.

A blues musician in Springfield. Voiced by Ron Taylor.

* TheChewToy: Poor, poor Gil.

* KilledOffForReal: Gets chopped up and melted with acid by debt collectors in “A Serious Flanders”

** A few comics (collected in ‘’The Big Book of Bart Simpson’’) have him and Bart in an odd friendship very similar to that of Doc Brown and Marty [=McFly=] from ‘’Film/BackToTheFuture’’.
