List of The Simpsons guest stars
Guest star list for an animated series
For seasons 1–20, see List of The Simpsons guest stars (seasons 1–20).
Actor Phil Hartman, who died in 1998, was the most recurring male guest actor on the show, appearing 52 times.
In addition to the show's regular cast of voice actors, celebrity guest stars have been a staple of The Simpsons, an American animated television sitcom created by Matt Groening for the Fox Broadcasting Company, since its first season. The Simpsons focuses on the eponymous family, which consists of Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa and Maggie. The family was initially conceived by Groening for a series of animated shorts, which originally aired as a part of The Tracey Ullman Show between 1987 and 1989. The shorts were developed into a half-hour prime time series which began in December 1989.[1] The series' 31st season began in September 2019 and 673 episodes of The Simpsons have aired. A feature film adaptation of the series called The Simpsons Movie, was released in 2007.
Guest voices have come from a wide range of professions, including actors, athletes, authors, musicians, artists, politicians and scientists. In the show's early years most guest stars voiced original characters, but as the show has continued the number of those appearing as themselves has increased.
The first credited guest star was Marcia Wallace who appeared in "Bart the Genius" in her first stint as Bart's teacher Edna Krabappel. Singer Tony Bennett was the first guest star to appear as himself, appearing briefly in the season two episode "Dancin' Homer". Several guest stars have featured as recurring characters on the show, including Phil Hartman, Joe Mantegna and Kelsey Grammer. Hartman made the most appearances, guest starring 52 times. Mantegna has appeared over thirty times, Grammer, Maurice LaMarche, Jon Lovitz and Frank Welker have appeared twenty times or more; Glenn Close and Jackie Mason have appeared over ten times, while Albert Brooks, Michael Dees, Dana Gould, Terry W. Greene, Valerie Harper, Jan Hooks, Jane Kaczmarek, Stacy Keach, Kipp Lennon, Dawnn Lewis, J. K. Simmons, Sally Stevens, George Takei and Michael York have made over five appearances.
Two guest stars, Ricky Gervais and Seth Rogen, earned writing credits for the episodes in which they appeared. Grammer, Mason and three-time guest star Anne Hathaway all won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Voice-Over Performance for guest voice roles on the show. The show was awarded the Guinness World Record for "Most Guest Stars Featured in a TV Series" in 2010. As of January 5, 2020, there have been 837 guest stars on the show[A], with this figure rising to 842 if The Simpsons Movie is included.

Guest stars have appeared on The Simpsons since its first season, in addition to the show's main cast of Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, Yeardley Smith, Hank Azaria and Harry Shearer and supporting cast of Tress MacNeille, Pamela Hayden, Maggie Roswell, Chris Edgerly, Grey Griffin and former supporting cast members Russi Taylor, Marcia Mitzman Gaven, Karl Wiedergott, Doris Grau, Jo Ann Harris, Susan Blu and Christopher Collins.[2] Kevin Michael Richardson started as a recurring guest star in the twenty first season, but joined the supporting cast in the twenty eighth, starting with the episode "The Last Traction Hero".
Guest voices have come from a wide range of professions, including actors, athletes, authors, musicians, artists, politicians and scientists. In the earlier seasons, most of the guest stars voiced characters, but eventually more started appearing as themselves.[3] The first male guest star was actor Sam McMurray, who voiced a worker at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant in "Homer's Odyssey", the show's third episode, and Marcia Wallace was the first female guest star on the show starting from Bart the Genius as Edna Krabappel and Ms. Melon. Singer Tony Bennett was the first guest star to appear as himself, appearing in the season two episode "Dancin' Homer" while Aerosmith were the first band with their cameo in the third season's "Flaming Moe's"
Several guest stars have made multiple appearances on the show, often as recurring characters. Actress Marcia Wallace guest starred 176 times, making her the most recurring female guest star on the show, until her death in 2013. Edna Krabappel was then retired from the show, but sometimes appears as a ghost, and actor Phil Hartman guest-starred in 52 episodes, more than any other male actor, although his initial role in the second season episode "Bart Gets Hit By a Car" in 1991 was intended to be a one-off.[4] He voiced the recurring characters Troy McClure and Lionel Hutz as well as numerous other one-time characters, until his death in 1998. McClure and Hutz were subsequently retired from the show.[5] Actor Kelsey Grammer first appeared as Sideshow Bob in the first-season episode "Krusty Gets Busted" while actor Joe Mantegna made his first appearance as Fat Tony in the third season episode "Bart the Murderer". The two have appeared in 21 and 28 episodes respectively; Mantegna also appeared in the film. Both roles were originally written for other actors: Bob was originally to be voiced by James Earl Jones,[6] who later guest starred three times on the show, while Fat Tony was written for Sheldon Leonard.[4] Other repeat guest stars include Albert Brooks, Glenn Close, Jan Hooks, Maurice LaMarche, Jon Lovitz, Jane Kaczmarek, Jackie Mason, Charles Napier and Frank Welker.
According to Groening, guest star choices "come from the writers saying, 'Wouldn't it be cool to have [such a person on the show]?'",[7] while showrunner Al Jean has stated the reasoning is "we want to meet our heroes."[8] Bill Oakley and Josh Weinstein, showrunners of the seventh and eight seasons, favored guest stars with what they felt were unique and interesting voices such as actors R. Lee Ermey, Donald Sutherland, Kirk Douglas and Lawrence Tierney.[9] In 2014, Jean stated that fewer people would be appearing as themselves, as the staff did not want it to become a "crazy roster".[10]
Many guest stars come into the show's recording studio to record their parts,[7] although some are recorded over the telephone.[11] Two guest stars have been credited with writing the episode in which they guest starred. Comedian Ricky Gervais wrote the episode "Homer Simpson, This Is Your Wife",[12] while actor Seth Rogen co-wrote the episode "Homer the Whopper" with Evan Goldberg.[13] Two guest stars were credited with pseudonyms. Actor Dustin Hoffman was credited as "Sam Etic" for the episode "Lisa's Substitute" while musician Michael Jackson was credited as "John Jay Smith" for the episode "Stark Raving Dad". After the latter episode, the producers decided that if a celebrity wished to guest star on the show, they had to be willing to be credited under their real name.[14]
Numerous people have rejected the chance to appear on the show. Actor William Shatner has been described as the first person to reject the show.[15] The producers have consistently failed to persuade any former President of the United States to appear.[8] Musicians Bruce Springsteen and Bob Dylan have also rejected multiple invitations to guest star on the series.[16][17] Other people to turn the show down include actors Michael Caine,[18] Tom Cruise,[19] Tiff Needell, Archie Norman, Kyle MacLachlan, Natalie Imbruglia, Clint Eastwood and Anthony Hopkins[20] and director Quentin Tarantino.[21] Musician Prince turned down a role in a sequel to "Stark Raving Dad", which meant the script was never produced.[22]
Others have accepted the offer, but have been unable to record a role. Musician Frank Zappa and actor Anthony Perkins both became too ill to record their parts,[20][23] while Jim Carrey had to drop out due to time constraints,[24] and Faye Dunaway cancelled.[25] Christopher Walken originally agreed appear as himself in "Insane Clown Poppy". However, he then decided to demand a lot more money than the producers were willing to pay. Instead, Jay Mohr provided the voice of Walken. In the end credits, Jay Mohr is actually credited with the voice of Christopher Walken, the credit says "Jay Mohr as Christopher Walken". This is the first time this has ever been done.
Robby Krieger of The Doors recorded a cameo for the episode "The Great Money Caper", but his part was cut because the writers felt his appearance seemed too forced. The scene was later included on the season's DVD release.[26] Similarly, actress Catherine O'Hara recorded the voice of Colette the waitress in "Flaming Moe's", but was redubbed with Jo Ann Harris who the producers felt was a better fit.[27] Ron Howard, in what would have been his third appearance on The Simpsons, was advertised as guest starring on "Children of a Lesser Clod".[28] However, he did not appear for any recording sessions. Similarly, Werner Herzog was advertized as guest starring in "Thanksgiving of Horror", in what would have been his third appearance as Walter Hotenhoffer,[29] but didn't appear in the final episode.
Mason, Grammer and Anne Hathaway have each won the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Voice-Over Performance for their guest voice roles on the show.[30] The show was awarded the Guinness World Record for "Most Guest Stars Featured in a TV Series" on May 23, 2010, with Guinness estimating that the show has featured "at least 555 as of series 21".[31] As of January 5, 2020, there have been 837 guest stars on the show, totaling 1445 guest spots.[A] These figures rise to 842 and 1453 respectively if The Simpsons Movie is counted as well.

^ E. Kramer had previously guest starred in "Flaming Moe's" as part of his band Aerosmith.
^ F. While the entirety of the band The Decemberists were animated playing music in the episode, only Meloy had any individual lines and was credited.

Back in the old days, almost all photography required some sort of skills. When we saw pictures with cool effects and lighting, we knew the photographer spent a lot of time learning how to get that particular look. These days, while professional photographers still blow us away with their artistry, ordinary people like you and me can also get some pretty nifty effects on our photos.
The whole craft of photography has changed in recent years now that almost everyone has a camera on their smartphone. The number of apps and social sites that are available for photographers is mind-boggling. Most people I know store their photographs on Facebook, or they just keep them in digital format on their phone. Do you still print a physical copy for a photo album? I don't. It's a little sad though because displaying pictures at home is so special.
I remember years ago spending hours placing photographs meticulously in hand-selected frames and hanging them on the walls. They make any room feel cozy. What if you wanted to get into that spirit of printing photos again? Would you even know where to start? It's almost a lost art, isn't it? I found a couple of goodies over at Wonder How To which offer some creative ideas about this. The first few pictures below are from an article entitled 12 Websites For Taking Your Instagrams From Digital To Physical. It's a fabulous article with lots of helpful hints. Beneath the pictures is an infographic by Yumi which illustrates six ways to display photos in your home which are a little more creative than using standard photo frames. I hope you enjoy these ideas as much as I did!


Bangladesh is a flat country occupying the delta of the Ganges and Jamuna (Brahmaputra), which frequently bring devastating floods. The original vegetation has been largely replaced by rice paddies and jute fields. Agriculture now employs three-quarters of the work-force and Bangladesh is a leading jute producer. Cotton, sugar cane, tea and tobacco are also important. The wet and hot climate makes it possible to harvest as many as three crops per year.
Local industry produces jute and cotton goods, cement, paper and sugar. The transport system largely depends on the dense system of waterways. Dhaka (Dacca) has an international airport.


After the Civil War, as people moved from rural areas to seek work in the towns, Gastonia began to grow and prosper. The need for a place of worship in the town was recognized by Pisgah ARP Church.
On October 29, 1887, First ARP Gastonia was organized with forty-seven charter members. Through the blessings of God on the faithful preaching of her ministers and the commitment of her members, First ARP soon outgrew the first small stucco meeting place at the corner of York and Franklin and built a larger facility on the same site in which the first service was held on February 24, 1918. After World War II, the continued growth of the congregation made a new facility necessary and the first of the present buildings was dedicated at our current location on November 14, 1948.
Fourteen pastors have faithfully served Christ at First ARP during her one hundred twenty seven year history. Eight men from this congregation have entered the Gospel ministry and a number of other sons and daughters have gone into full-time Christian service.
While the present vitality of First ARP owes a tremendous debt to those who have gone before, the congregation's focus is not upon the past but upon the Christ our forebearers served and the future He offers to us today.

Q: How to set logging level for an application using a cmd/bash command? I have a .NET application configured to use log4net. The problem is, there a debug logging lines everywhere in the code and the application keeps logging these to a file even during a normal runtime.
Is there a way I can design a .NET application in such a way logging can be enabled/or logging level set as and when needed?
Also I would like not to have debug logging lines everywhere in the application. I would like it if I can do something like inject debug code on demand. An example of a code snippet from the code base I  I'm working on right now is given below:
public void EmailHanderSet(EmailHandler emailHandler)
        {
            try
            {
                _emailHandler = emailHandler;

                AttachIncomingEmailHandlers();

                _userEmailAddress = GetCurrentUserAddress();

                Utils.LogInfo("Username " + _userEmailAddress);
            }
            catch(Exception ex)
            {
                Utils.HandleException("EH Ex ",ex);
            }
        }

There are lines line Utils.LogInfo all over the code. Thanks.

A: I am not sure how to do it using cmd/bash command, but by setting the Threshold on the Hierarchy to Level "Off" will disable all logging from that Hierarchy. This can be done in the log4net configuration file by setting the "threshold" attribute on the log4net configuration element to "Off".
For example:
<log4net threshold="Off" />

As heard today on Bannon's War Room program
Tal Bachman was interviewed today by Bannon about his piece in American Greatness "The Republican Party Sucks." Tal Bachman is a writer, Sirius XM host, and musician best known for his 1999 hit, "She's So High." Join Tal and his Dad online every Friday night at 6 PM PST/9 PM EST for their unrehearsed live musical show, "Friday Night Trainwrecks." Tal can be reached at tcrbachman@gmail.com.
The brute fact is that the GOP today—unlike its original incarnation—has no rootedness in any specific moral conception of political life. It is an unmoored, mercenary instrument for hire. By Tal Bachman
Once upon a time, the Republican Party didn't suck. Actually, there were lots of times it didn't suck.
It didn't suck when, at its founding in the late 1850s, it declared slavery an inhumane, barbaric practice, and eventually ended it. It didn't suck when it ended repressive and predatory Mormon polygamy a few decades later. It didn't suck when it declared late 19th-century corporate monopolies to be injurious to representative democracy and citizen welfare, and diminished their power.
It didn't suck under President Dwight D. Eisenhower, who presided over a postwar era of peace and prosperity. It didn't suck when it fought segregationist Democrats to ensure equal application of the law. It didn't suck when it fought against communism for half a century, and then won.
But starting with the presidency of George H. W. Bush, it really began sucking.
It was Bush Senior who pushed America into the first Persian Gulf War amidst a massive PR snow job involving fake stories about little Kuwaiti kids. It was Bush who framed that war as a glorious opportunity and morally obligatory step toward a "new world order"—by which he meant the eventual dissolution of national borders (including those of the United States) and the rise of one-world-government.
He also pushed economic corollaries to his political one-worldism. He relentlessly preached free trade ideology, eventually signing NAFTA in December of 1992. He laid the groundwork for the World Trade Organization, which would officially emerge in 1995. He began pushing for open trade with Communist China. He refused to protect American manufacturing—auto manufacturing, among other types—against subsidized imports intended to destroy American industries. His 1990 Immigration Act triggered a perpetual flood of cheap Latin American labor which inevitably undercut working-class wages at home.
Every step of the way, establishment Republicans supported him. All in all, in just four years, the Republican Party, under Bush Senior, initiated the de-industrialization of the United States of America; the devastation of thousands of working-class communities and families; the acceleration of disruptive demographic change; and the national slide toward dependence on—that is, control by—China.
So, obviously, all that sucks. What also sucks is that ever since, the Republican Party—with only a few exceptions here and there—has just sucked more and more.
Take W's tenure. It includes an FBI which failed to intercept a devastating 9/11 terrorist attack, months in the making, which killed 3,000 people, despite many opportunities for detection.
It includes W's proto-Woke demand, immediately after the attacks, that we all become as reality-resistant as he was and deny, against all sense and reason, that Islamic terrorism had anything to do with Islam. It includes his refusal to consider any alteration of Middle Eastern immigration into the country.
It includes the legitimation and foundation of the lawless, panoptical surveillance state we now live in.
It includes large-scale Middle Eastern wars poorly prosecuted, initiated with little or no exit strategies, fueled by delusions that Iraqis and Afghans not only wanted something like American-style secular, liberal democracy, but also were capable of maintaining it.
To top it all off, it includes policies which helped trigger the 2008 financial crash. And once again, establishment Republicans supported him the whole time. So that sucks, too. Subsequent presidential candidates Mitt Romney and John McCain also sucked, as did the whole do-nothing lot of Congressional Republicans between Bush and Trump.
Unsurprisingly, the Republican Party continued sucking once Trump arrived.
Nearly all its leading lights lined up against the only candidate in decades to address the concerns of the party's own base. For every Newt or Rudy, there were dozens of snarky, Romney-like Republicans who tried, overtly and covertly, to take him down. Those who didn't mostly sat by in silence as rogue federal agencies tried to remove Trump from office based on false allegations fabricated by the agencies themselves.
And now, post-Trump, the Republican Party still sucks.
Consider, just for starters, that as the Biden Administration resumes the national demolition job started by Barack Obama, but interrupted by Trump, Republicans overall have remained oddly passive. Where's the robust resistance? The alternative proposals? The focused effort on a party rebuild? Nowhere, or near nowhere.
Yes, the party finally found the cojones to remove the Deep State Drizella, Princess Liz Cheney, from her House leadership position. But just as quickly, they revealed their cojonesto be illusory: they chose the worst possible replacement they could find. New York representative Elise Stefanik's voting record on all the important issues is indistinguishablefrom that of any garden-variety Democrat: pro-Paris Climate Accord; pro-amnesty; anti-wall; anti-energy-independence, etc. So why choose her? Because they're the Republican Party. Sucking is what they do.
The current Republican Party sucks so bad, it can't even manage to stick up for the reality of biological sex anymore. The obligation to protect female athletes from unfair competition, and indeed, injury, as well as female athletics as an institution, is clearly no match for Chamber of Commerce, NCAA, and Walmart money. That Governors Asa Hutchinson and Kristi Noem had the nerve to cynically justify their corporate kowtowing by invoking the virtues of "limited government" would once have been shocking. Sadly, it isn't anymore. It's just what they do. We expect it. Because they suck.
The brute fact is that the Republican Party today—unlike its original incarnation—has no rootedness in any specific moral conception of political life. It is an unmoored, mercenary instrument for hire. And members of a would-be permanent ruling caste have hired it.
That's why to the extent the pre- and post-Trump Republican Party represents any kind of philosophy at all, it is an economic neoliberalism which in practice enables, and acts as cover for, a crony capitalism heading toward state capitalism—the full fusion of big business and big government into one giant blob of increasingly totalitarian control freakery.
It says a lot about Republicans that the most notable recent example of a politician standing up to this noxious fusion came from a Democrat. In 2018, Amazon kingpin Jeff Bezos (personal net worth: $200 billion) announced he'd build a new corporate headquarters in Queens, New York—but only on condition the city and state give his company $3 billion in tax breaks and subsidies. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) opposed Amazon's subsidy shakedown. We want you to come, she said in effect, but only if you play by the same rules as everyone else. In the end, an affronted Bezos pulled out. He'd build his headquarters elsewhere.
Establishment Republicans—with perfect predictability—immediately erupted in jeers. Airhead Cortez has cost Queens thousands of jobs. She has no idea how markets work. Dumber than a rock!
Unnoticed by the jeering Establishment Republicans was that Amazon's initial offer amounted to the commencement of a negotiation. Team AOC made a counteroffer. Bezos threatened to walk. Team AOC refused to budge. Bezos then walked. But in the end, Team AOC won, and won big, because only a few months later, Amazon came slinking back into Queens and decided to build its new headquarters there anyway—and pay all the taxes all the other businesses there pay, just as Team AOC had originally insisted. In fact, there was good reason to suspect Amazon would cave all along. And they did.
A Republican Party that didn't suck would see this episode as a victory for small businesses, taxpayers, Queens, New York state, common sense, fundamental fairness, equal application of the law, and even for republican government over a politically corrosive crony capitalism. Instead, establishment Republicans don't mention it anymore. These self-styled geniuses of market capitalism would have handed $3 billion in corporate welfare over to the 200-billion-dollar man the second he asked, and then congratulated themselves on their business acumen and communitarian bona fides.
Because, again, they suck.
No one has any clue what the Republican Party stands for anymore except for whatever its fat cat owners and operators tell it to stand for at any given moment, or barring that, whatever the Democratic Party stands for at any moment—except less of it.
Those of us in favor of what Burke called "ordered liberty" and a revitalized America view the Democratic Party as a target worth destroying. Before that can happen, however, we need to destroy—or at least conquer and completely recreate—another target altogether: the Republican Party.
Why? Because it sucks.
The Republican Party Sucks
