I knew that the Pope and Supreme Court Justices could retire from their jobs for life. But I thought the only way you could leave The Simpsons was to die like the late actors Marcia Wallace, Jackie Mason, and Phil Hartman. But that is not the case.
Today, Fox announced that Pamela Hayden, who voices Milhouse Van Houten, is retiring from the series after 35 years.
“The time has come for me to hang up my microphone, but how do I say goodbye to The Simpsons?……not easily. It’s been an honor and a joy to have worked on such a funny, witty, and groundbreaking show, and to give voice to Milhouse (and Jimbo Jones, Rod Flanders, Janey, Malibu Stacy, and many others),” she said.
Her last appearance airs this Sunday, which is the annual Treehouse of Horror episode.
While she is no longer part of The Simpsons, her characters will live on. The producers will begin casting in the near future.
Before Hank Azaria was Chief Wiggum on The Simpsons, he was a beat cop in Pretty Woman. He looks the same now as he did when he was 23 in that 1990 movie.
Watch that interview to see why his family was mad at him over that movie.
Did you know that Hank Azaria is in a Bruce Springsteen cover band called The EZ Street Band? No one did, So he came up with a creative way to get people to get the word out.
The man of a thousand voices put those voices to work, and he is on fire. In other words, he had his Simpsons characters sing The Boss’ first huge hit. So now we know what Moe Szyslak, Comoic Book Guy, Snake, Professor Frink, Sea Captain, Cletus, Duffman, and Chief Wiggum sound like when they sing Born to Run.
There was one more voice he did, and that voice was Bruce himself. Because if you are going to have a tribute band dedicated to the artist, you might as well sing like them.
If you want to hear Hank Springsteen sing, he will be doing two shows in Bruce’s old haunts, including at the Stone Pony in Asbury Park.
On Tuesday night during the debate, the male presidential candidate made a false claim that the Haitian immigrants of Springfield, Ohio, are eating the cats and the dogs.
Since then, the Springfield Police Department has been inundated with phone calls about pets being taken and served up as pupper, I mean supper.
Anywhoo, a video was releasxed of the most famous Springfield Police Chief reacting to those barking mad residents. How did Chief Clancy Wiggum react to it? Just as you woul expect!
Thank you to Hank Azaria for making a sad but true joke about this insane madness.
And more importantly, thank you to the person who picked Springfuield as the city of choice! The Simpsons jokes are making MAGAts look like bigger fools than we already thought!
Seriously, anyone who has a cat can tell you they eat us and not the other way around.
