Best Simpsons Characters from the Golden Age
This list shows which characters from The Simpsons' golden age (Seasons 1-10) are the favorite, based on your votes.Homer's personality during the golden age was much, much better. He was a lot more likeable, his humor was outstanding, but most of all, he was a much better guy. The Homer nowadays is nothing but a lazy, selfish, dumb, and mean-spirited idiot who does nothing funny or reasonable.
Well, duh. Homer is hilarious. Also, Simpsons remains awesome to this day.
Bart was by far more likeable in the Golden Age. He's mischievous, he's cool, but was also more friendly and well-meaning than the Bart these days. The Bart these days has become more like Homer's sidekick and getting involved in stupid situations, instead of being a boy facing problems we can relate to.
Lisa from the Golden Age is almost completely different from the Lisa these days. During the Golden Age, Lisa was one of the most likeable characters of the show along with Bart and Homer. She used to be smart, sweet, and also had a much better and much stronger sense of humor than the Lisa these days. The Lisa these days has been a nightmare, with no good humor, being very obnoxious, and being more of a political commentator than a sweet little girl.
Maggie has always been cute, but was even better during the Golden Age. She may be a baby, but she's definitely not somebody you want to make angry. Besides that, she was also sweet.
Moe is a grouch with a heart. He's also very funny and likeable too, mostly during the first ten seasons, though.
Ned hasn't really changed too much over the years, but he was definitely better when the Simpsons were better.
Groundskeeper Willie is really funny. His accent is hilarious, his remarks are gold, but deep down he also has a heart.
Chief Wiggum is pretty much the most notable police officer in animation. He's funny, kinda lazy, but also used to be more intelligent and humble.
Marge has never really clicked with fans as much as Homer, Bart, and Lisa had. The reason why though is that her episodes (mostly the more recent ones) had been bland and boring instead of being about going to space, selling your soul, or digging up a skeleton that looks like an angel. Other than that though, Marge was much more likeable during the Golden Age. She had a few episodes that were really great, like Marge vs. the Monorail.
Hey, Hey, Hey! Hee hee
