ネッド・フランダース
One of the many characters of the American animated comedy sitcom [[The Simpsons]].
The nice guy next door neighbor to the Simpson family. Originally, Ned was just a "better Christian" than [[homer simpson|Homer]], being affable, polite, intellectual, friendly, and sincerely religious. As the seasons went on, his "sweetness" and his religiosity grew until he became a byword for fanatical religious faith and doormat-like pleasantry. His being a doormat in the name of being nice to others faded. The religious zeal, however, remains. As of Season 29, he has taken over his late second wife's job as the fourth grade teacher; he previously served briefly as principal. At some point in Season 33, however, Ned was fired for praying on school grounds, and the job was given to Rayshelle Peyton. Voiced by Harry Shearer.
