List of one-time The Simpsons characters

The following is a list of one-time characters from the American animated television comedy series The Simpsons.

Some of the characters have returned to the show, sometimes in brief speaking appearances, or just 'in the crowd' scenes. Other characters originally intended to be one-time characters have ended up becoming regular cast members, such as Cletus Spuckler, Luigi Risotto, Disco Stu, Groundskeeper Willie, Crazy Cat Lady, Cookie Kwan and Lindsey Naegle.

For purposes of this list, "one-time" means they were central to an episode one time. Some of the characters listed here have appeared in later episodes, but only briefly. The characters are sorted by episode.

Series characters

Season 1

• "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire"
  • Mervin Monroe (Harry Shearer), a tattoo artist that almost gave Bart a tattoo that said "MOTHER" before Marge came and stopped him, leaving a heart and "MOTH" written on his arm. His brother is Marvin Monroe, who is later seen in "There's No Disgrace Like Home".

Jacques has made non-speaking cameos in subsequent episodes, such as "Homer and Apu" (in the Monstro-Mart's line of single, pathetic men who only pay cash for their groceries and do not chat with the clerk) and "Homer's Triple Bypass" (in the waiting room with his bowling ball stuck on one of his fingers). He makes a quick appearance on the bowling team 'The Homewreckers' in "Team Homer", losing to Homer's team the 'Pin Pals'. He is also seen being startled by Bart on his skateboard (along with Bleeding Gums Murphy, Barney, Helen Lovejoy, Moe Syzlak, Chief Wiggum and Apu) in the opening credits of each episode (up until the middle of season 20, when the opening was changed for high-definition TV and the characters on the street were changed).

• "Homer's Night Out"
  • Gulliver Dark (Sam McMurray), a lounge singer and playboy.^[3] After Homer's speech about how women should not be seen or treated as sex objects, Dark decides to call his mother, as she sounded depressed the last time she called him.

• "The Crepes of Wrath"
  • Adil Hoxha (Tress MacNeille), a foreign exchange student from Albania who replaces Bart when he is deported to France.

Her suspicion proves true, as he is actually an Albanian spy who plans to use Homer to gain blueprint information on a rector for a nuclear power plant. Adil is returned to Albania in exchange for an American spy, also a child, caught in Albania.^[4] His last name is an unintentional reference to former Albanian leader Enver Hoxha, as stated by Al Jean in the DVD commentary for this episode.^[5]

She appears in "Hurricane Neddy", pacing back and forth in a cell in Calmwood Mental Hospital.

The character was voiced by Michael Jackson (who, for contractual reasons, was credited as "John Jay Smith").^[14] The producers of the show were legally prevented from confirming Jackson guest starred at the time, although many media sources (correctly) assumed it was really him.^{[15][16][17][18]} A year after the episode aired, the writers decided to make a sequel where Leon Kompowsky returns, thinking he is the musician Prince (and voiced by Prince himself), who encourages everyone in town to be sexually liberated, but it was later scrapped when Prince declined.^[19]

• "Flaming Moe's"

  • Mr. Black (Harry Shearer) was Krusty's accountant and the evil camp director of Kamp Krusty who hires local thugs Dolph, Jimbo, and Kearney to be counselors to break the kids' spirits (which does not work when Bart leads an insurrection against them). He promptly flees on a hydrofoil, never to be seen again. Mark Kirkland was sure that the character was going to reappear later in the series, but he never did.^[25] However, he appears in a comic book based on the series where he has Homer sell him a company while "filling in" for Moe, who was literally tied up down in his basement.
• "A Streetcar Named Marge"

She is hospitalized and quickly becomes "Little Miss Intensive Care".^[27]

Bart developed a crush on her, but ended up in heartbreak when he found out her boyfriend was Jimbo Jones, whom she later breaks up with after Moe threatens to kill him over a prank call that Bart made and Jimbo breaks down sobbing. Ruth mentions Laura in "Marge On The Lam" when Ruth tells Marge that she has to head home before her daughter watches "that naked talk show".^[28] She never reappears in a main role (though her mother Ruth has appeared from time to time), but is occasionally in background scenes.

He uses song and slick salesmanship to get the whole town behind the idea that Springfield should buy a monorail system. However, Lyle finds an enemy in Marge, who is the only resident who opposes it and is angry over the fact they're not using the money properly to rebuild Main Street. Suspecting he had an ulterior motive, she discovers his plans in using the money he skimmed from the shoddily-built monorail to go on vacation without concern for the Springfieldianites. However, an angry mob of North Haverbrook residents attack him during an unexpected flight layover, their city having previously fallen for his monorail scam.^[30] The character is based on Harold Hill, the main character from the 1962 film The Music Man.

  • Rex (Michael Carrington): a melodramatic boy in Lisa's class who auditioned to play George Washington during the school's Presidents' Day pageant. Although impressive, he was turned down for Ralph Wiggum by Ms. Hoover (so she can have the Denver boot removed from her car tire) and tried to claim it was fair. Rex suspected that Ralph only won the lead role because of his father's position as the Springfield Police chief and resented being casted as George Washington's butler who appeared near the end of the performance. Another boy with a similar personality to the Rex in this episode appeared in season six's "Bart of Darkness," but his appearance was drastically altered, looking somewhat like Hugh Parkfield, the Englishman Lisa almost marries in "Lisa's Wedding."
  • Johnny (Dan Castellaneta): Principal Skinner's Army buddy who was shot down while off-guard writing a Valentine during the Vietnam War while stationed in Da Nang. Skinner was thinking of him while explaining over the PA that "Valentine's Day is no joke", only to lapse into a full-on flashback while still broadcasting.

  • Dr. Wolfe (Hank Azaria) is the intimidating and judgmental dentist that the Simpson family visits.

• "Bart's Inner Child"
  • Brad Goodman (Albert Brooks) is a self-help guru. After talking to Bart Simpson during a lecture at Springfield, he encourages the town to be more like Bart and to "do what you feel like", which eventually causes disastrous consequences.

• "The Last Temptation of Homer"
  • Mindy Simmons (Michelle Pfeiffer) is a former employee of Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, for whom Homer had an attraction. According to Homer on "Another Simpsons Clip Show", Mindy "hit the bottle pretty hard" and allegedly lost her job at the plant, however she has still been used as a background character at the plant in subsequent episodes (such as "The Twisted World of Marge Simpson"). She also appears in "Team Homer" as a member of the "Home-Wreckers" bowling team, which consists of another women with whom Homer almost had an affair: an aspiring country singer (Lurleen Lumpkin in "Colonel Homer"); an exotic dancer Homer once cavorted with at a bachelor party, creating a rift between him and Marge (Shauna Tifton, aka "Princess Kashmir" in "Homer's Night Out"); and Jacques, a bowling instructor who nearly seduced Marge ("Life on the Fast Lane").^[38]

He reappears in "Trash of the Titans" as one of the people in line at the courthouse to register as a sex offender (along with Patty and Selma, Jimmy the Scumbag from "Lisa's Date with Density," and Moe, who complains about how long the sex offender line always is) and later in "See Homer Run" (with a somewhat altered voice and appearance) as his uncle's press secretary.^[42]

Season 6

• "Itchy & Scratchy Land"

  • Jessica Lovejoy (Meryl Streep) is the daughter of Timothy and Helen Lovejoy, and appeared in the episode Bart's Girlfriend. Initially appearing as a calm, sweet girl back from boarding school, she also enjoys causing mischief, but reveals that she is even more of a wild misfit than Bart; she was actually expelled for destroying school property, stealing and starting up fights. Wooing Bart the first day they met, she soon became his girlfriend, but later revealed a manipulative femme fatale side.

  • Dr. Zweig (Anne Bancroft) is a psychologist who tries to help Marge get over her fear of flying. She appears as one of the judges at Marge's insanity hearing in "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Marge".^[44] While a competent psychologist, she is somewhat hypocritical as she, as Homer predicted and feared, immediately suspects Homer of responsibility for Marge's problems, despite her statement that she was not there to cast blame on anyone. However, in "It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Marge", she and her colleagues are somehow completely ignorant of the ubiquitous concepts of religious belief and prayer, instead interpreting Marge's prayer to God and belief in his omnipresence as symptoms of schizophrenia.
  • Guy Incognito (Dan Castellaneta) is a seemingly upper-class man who is identical in appearance to Homer Simpson.

She is seen briefly when Smithers phones to tell her she has a call waiting from her son, who she refers to as "that improvident lackwit", but Homer accidentally cuts her off before they can speak. According to Smithers, Burns hates talking to her having never forgiven her for an affair with President William Howard Taft.
• "The Day the Violence Died"
  • Chester J. Lampwick (Kirk Douglas), a homeless man who was the creator of the in-series cartoon character Itchy, which was stolen by Roger Meyers, Sr.^[55] Lampwick's original characterization and art for Itchy parody Mickey Mouse's first appearance as Steamboat Willie.

  • The Space Coyote (Johnny Cash), a coyote who appeared in Homer's chili-induced hallucination and set Homer on a quest to find his true soulmate.^[63] In his book Planet Simpson: How a Cartoon Masterpiece Documented an Era and Defined a Generation, Chris Turner states that Johnny Cash as the coyote is his favorite guest performance.^[64] The Coyote is briefly glimpsed again in the 26th-season episode, "Blazed and Confused", by Marge this time while she is having chemical-induced hallucinations.

• "The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show"
  • Roy (Hank Azaria), a young adult who briefly lives with the Simpson family. Before his introduction Lisa states "Adding a new character is often a desperate attempt to boost low ratings." At the end of the episode he leaves the Simpson house to live in an apartment with two sexy ladies. Before production began, a Fox executive suggested the staff add a new character to the show, who should come and live with the Simpsons on a permanent basis because it would "liven up the show".^[67] The staff rejected the idea.
