Nice quiz, but a bit annoying that you accept first names for some, last names for some, but only first AND last names for others (i.e. Scott Christian, Birch Barlow)
Completely agree with this. The quiz seems very inconsistent as far as accepting names. "Murphy" wasn't enough to get "Bleeding Gums Murphy", yet for many other people a last name was enough. For "Jacqueline Bouvier" I typed both "Bouvier" and "Mrs. Bouvier" and neither worked; then I typed in "Marge's Mother" and that was accepted.
made 79. Forgett about lots of of important characters, like the school bullies and Cobra, and remembered some really obscure ones. When the clock stops you want to hit your head on the bloody keyboard.
geographyisthebestsubject does not watch television programs. The only way to spend an afternoon is looking at the wall map while eating plain bread, with maybe some water for dipping.
This has been my favorite show since day 1 and I am ashamed at my brain failure. Also, unless I'm missing something, I don't see the Sea Captain. D'oh!
Why do you include some one-off characters like Mindy Simmons and Frank Grimes, but not others? Seems to me there is an easy line to draw between recurring characters (which should be part of the quiz), and one-off characters (which shouldn't be part of the quiz because you have some but left off many others).
I know. The omissions I'm talking about are in the first nine seasons. Some one-off characters are here. Some aren't. For example, there's an Albanian exchange student named Adil who lives with the Simpsons for an episode. He's not here. Mr. Bergstrom, Lisa's substitute teacher, isn't here. Principal Dondelinger, the principal from Marge and Homer's high school, appears in several episodes from Seasons 1-9, but he's not here either. Stampy, Bart's pet elephant for a single episode, is here. Princess, Lisa's pet pony for a single episode, isn't. I know you can't possibly get everyone, but if I try Mr. Bergstrom, who was the focus of a whole episode, and he doesn't work, why would I think to try the name of the guy who controlled the Gabbo puppet? Mr. Sparkle isn't even a real character. He's a dishwashing detergent mascot that appears in one episode, and he's here. It's just impossible to tell where the line is, and I found it frustrating.
I got krusty's dad but didn't get several of the more known ones ( eventhough I could picture them) Like smithers, marge's sisters, and the bullies' names. Plus I kept on thinking it was kent brockhouse.
This was a very good quiz. Got 101 which was a good score. However for Aristotle Amadopolis and other names, you should accept the first name, because I put Aristotle (not knowing the surname) but it would not let me have it

If you go to Simpsonswiki.com you find that there are literally 1000’s of characters; many were part of stories re-imagined by the Simpsons’ creators. Eg. Shakespeare, Homer, but there are also a lot of characters that played major roles in some episodes like Belle the madame of La Maison Derriere, Judge Harm, Moe’s girlfriends (Colette, Mindy Simmons, Maya, Renee), girls’ PE teacher Ms. Pommelhorst, boys’ PE teacher Coach Krupt who is infamous for his “bombardment” method of teaching, and many more.
I put in Supernintendo Chalmers and was very impressed that it was accepted, but then did a test and realised it was only accepted on the merit of including "chalmers". Ah well!
Wait a minute. Bart's teacher is named Krabappel? I've been calling her Crandall! Why didn't some one tell me?! Oh, I've been making an idiot out of myself!

It has the same structure as this quiz.
It accepts more alternate answers, and has WAY more characters.
I got 141.
Good job on the list :)

I got Troy McClure last, because I literally couldn't remember how to spell his name lol.
Maybe add Milhouse's last name, as you already have Kirk and Luann's last name on there. Other than that, it's pretty good.
