Harry Shearer has been voicing some of The Simpsons’ most well-known characters since the beginning. But has he watched the show that multiple generations have grown up watching?
Recently, the man behind the voices of Mr. Burns, Smithers, Ned Flanders, Reverend Lovejoy, Principal Skinner, and Kent Brockman sat down with The i Paper to talk about his musical comedy Here Comes J. Edgar Hoover. However, you can’t interview the legend without asking about The Simpsons, so that is what Shaun Curran did.
Curran wanted to know if the actor thought the long-running animated comedy peaked in the ’90s. Shearer told him, “I don’t know. I haven’t seen it.”
Can you imagine being part of something for almost 40 years, and never seeing it? Maybe he should take some time to do that. This way he can understand why millions and millions of people have seen all of the over 800 episodes.
