Top 10 Funniest The Simpsons Characters

The Top Ten
1 Homer Simpson Homer Jay Simpson is the main protagonist of the American animated television series The Simpsons as the patriarch of the eponymous family.

Being practically raised on The Simpsons, I don't regret a single part of my life spent watching this old guy for hours, laughing out loud at every new mistake he makes as he tries so hard to fix it.

The world is as kind to Homer Simpson as it is cruel, and I've always found myself able to relate to him that way. As much as people will complain, I never want to see this shining light die out. Cancel The Simpsons as soon as I'm dead.

He's the funniest and he's the best. People need to give the new episodes of The Simpsons a chance, not just judge them by a few episodes.

Plus, on Fox, the animation is amazing. Anyway, Homer Simpson is stupider than Peter Griffin (that's saying a lot) and he's the funniest cartoon character of all time.

2 Ralph Wiggum Ralph Wiggum is a side character in The Simpsons. He is the son of Chief Wiggum. Ralph is not very smart at all. He is voiced by Nancy Cartwright. Some episodes such as I Love Lisa and This Little Wiggy have him as a major character.

It tastes like burning!

I don't have a red crayon, I ate it.

She's touching my special area.

You choo-choo-choose me?

Why do people run from me?

This tastes like Grandma!

The wonderful list goes on...

He is so funny and stupid I choke every time he says something!

Ralph is hilarious and everybody should like him!

3 Barney Gumble Barnard "Barney" Gumble is a fictional character on the American animated sitcom The Simpsons. The character is voiced by Dan Castellaneta and first appeared in the series premiere episode "Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire".
4 Chief Wiggum

Very funny and apparently he's a rip-off of a police officer Matt Groening met.

5 Ned Flanders Nedward Flanders Jr. is a recurring fictional character in the animated television series The Simpsons.

I couldn't stop laughing every time Ned gets angry at Homer.

6 Bart Simpson Bartholomew JoJo "Bart" Simpson is the oldest child, and the only son, in the 1987 show The Simpsons. He was created by Matt Groening. His hobbies are pranking people including Lisa Simpson and Homer Simpson.

This is the funniest character of all. Mischief (pranks), skateboards, and catchphrases all make him the best.

-Simpson Safari (Season 12, 2000)

Bart: Alright, I got another one. (crosses out Warthog)
Lisa: Hey, you didn't see a warthog.
Bart: I am looking at one right now.
Lisa: Mom, Bart implied I was a warthog.
Marge: Nobody's a warthog.
Bart: What about him? (A warthog next to Lisa is shown chewing her hair)
Lisa: (screams)
Bart: (laughing)

Bart: D'ohmer (laughing)

Homer: Why you little... (Homer proceeds to strangle Bart)

-Lisa's First Word (Season 4, 1992-1993)

7 Groundskeeper Willie Groundskeeper Willie is a character in The Simpsons. He is most famous for his Scottish accent. He first appears in the episode Principal Charming.

Groundskeeper Willie's accent and personality make him the most lovable Simpsons character.

Lunch Lady Doris: Yeah, they even have Groundskeeper Willie teaching French to the younger children.

Willie: BONJOUR! You cheese-eating surrender monkeys!

8 Principal Skinner Principal W. Seymour Skinner is a fictional character in the American animated sitcom The Simpsons, who is voiced by Harry Shearer.

Ho ho ho! Delightfully devilish, Seymour!

9 Moe Szyslak

Just a guy that wants to kill himself.

10 Mr. Burns Charles Montgomery Plantagenet Schicklgruber "Monty" Burns, usually referred to as Charles Montgomery Burns or simply Mr. Burns, is a recurring character in the animated television series The Simpsons, voiced initially by Christopher Collins, and currently by Harry Shearer.

Excellent character. I love the line, Some of the evilness got in between my toes and now I'm a bigger bastard than ever, from the episode where he is arrested for stealing a priceless work of art.

The Contenders
11 Maggie Simpson Margaret "Maggie" Simpson is a fictional character in the animated television series The Simpsons. She first appeared on television in the Tracey Ullman Show short "Good Night" on April 19, 1987. Maggie was created and designed by cartoonist Matt Groening while he was waiting in the lobby of James L... read more
12 Comic Book Guy Comic Book Guy is the common, popular name for Jeffrey "Jeff" Albertson, a recurring fictional character in the animated television series The Simpsons.

I love Comic Book Guy. He's my favorite character. To everyone that hates him... Worst. Opinion. Ever.

So funny. In Homerzilla, there was a monster that was huge and didn't see him. "What monster?"

13 Hans Moleman Hans Moleman is a recurring character on the animated television series The Simpsons. He was created by series creator Matt Groening and is voiced by Dan Castellaneta, and first appeared in the episode "Principal Charming".

Man getting hit by football is brilliant. Also, people say he is unlucky, but I think he is the luckiest character after surviving about 40 near-death experiences.

Hans Moleman's tragic life would make me cry if it wasn't so funny.

14 Grandpa Simpson Abraham "Abe" "Grampa" Simpson is the patriarch of the Simpson family in the iconic cartoon The Simpsons. He is the paternal grandfather of Bart, Lisa and Maggie Simpson and the father of Homer. The aim of his character is to make fun of stereotypes about old people, such as never ending story-telling... read more
15 Dr. Nick

Hey everybody! He's funny, but I'd be in hell if he was in my operation.

16 Cletus Spuckler

Why does every comment here have hillbilly in it? I know he is one, but why?

He must have big balls if he can produce 40+ kids!

Yes, he is the hillbilly indeed.

17 Waylon Smithers

Almost every one of Smithers' jokes is about being gay, and it's hilarious. He's honestly very underrated and very funny!

18 Nelson Muntz Nelson Mandela Muntz is a fictional character and the lead school bully from the animated TV series The Simpsons.
19 Milhouse Van Houten Milhouse Mussolini Van Houten is a fictional character in the animated television series The Simpsons, voiced by Pamela Hayden, and created by Matt Groening who named the character after President Richard Nixon's middle name.

He's a real imbecile. Milhouse is one of the funniest. He's very funny when he loses his glasses, what he does with Lisa, and so much more.

He should be a lot higher. His awkward relationship with Bart is great.

20 Professor Frink

Professor Frink always makes the silliest inventions.

21 Jasper Beardsley
22 Fat Tony Fat Tony is a mobster in The Simpsons. He first appears as a major character in the episode Bart the Murderer. He is guest voiced by Joe Mantagea.

Why isn't Fat Tony higher? I love this guy!

23 Lenny Leonard
24 Patty Bouvier
25 Carl Carlson
