Lemonade Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 We'll change the topic every now and again. First, Top 5 Simpsons characters. Go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 great thread in no particular order: Abe Simpson Hans Moleman Gil Gunderson Homer Moe Szyzlak Anyone who puts one-off (Lyle Lanley, Frank Grimes, etc)) or occasional gag (really tall guy, Evil baby, etc) characters is a fool. To be considered a top 5 character they've really gotta have a foothold in the show imo. Hans Moleman is probably borderline on that point but the strength of the gags involving him and their frequency probably push him into 'real' character territory for me.

Sounds like you've stumbled across two more Top Fives right there. Best bit part characters, and best one-time characters. I'm doing all three. Fuck the police. Regulars: (Homer excluded obviously, because Homer is king) 1. Chief Wiggum 2. Moe 3. Lenny & Carl 4. Abe 5. Mr Burns Bit-parts: 1. Dr Nick 2. post-divorce Kirk van Houten and his pathetic life 3. Arnie Pie 4. Raphael/Wise Guy 5. Lionel Hutz RIP One-timers 1. Hank Scorpio 2. Frank Grimes 3. Larry Burns 4. Mayor of Albuquerque 5. Ray Patterson Edited August 11, 2016 by Soda van Jerk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemonade Posted August 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) If Homer is inelligible then move everyone on my list up one and add Krusty at number 5. 5 - Krusty The Klown 4 - Barney Gumble 3 - Comic Book Guy 2 - Ralph Wiggum 1 - Milhouse Van Houten Edited August 12, 2016 by Lemonade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I did it tomorrow, I'd probably pick 5 different ones. Minor League baseball teams have the best logos, generally. Hard to pick 5 favourites from them though, as there are around 100 million minor league teams.

ca_gere Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 (edited) 1. the simplified version (dunno what era it's from tbh) with the ball in the net, which doubles as an 'A' is awesome. lots of sentimentality behind its inclusion of course but it is an ace logo 2. Green Bay Packers. It's just a classic 3. University of Miami. I think it's the simplicity and the colors i like 4. Milwaukee brewers baseball. It's a glove, it's a B and an M. It's cool 5. It just IS football Edited August 15, 2016 by ca_gere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stroopy121 Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 No particular order. Louis CK Margaret Cho Aziz Ansari George Carlin Richard Pryor Honourable mentions to Trevor Noah and John Oliver who really don't count as stand-ups since they're sitting hosts on TV shows. And Jollyboat. They're amazing too. xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colb Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Only counting people i've seen live 1. Daniel Kitson 2. Stewart Lee 3. Ross Noble 4. Stewart Francis 5. Billy Connolly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted August 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 5 - Russell Kane 4 - Brendon Burns 3 - Bill Bailey 2 - Otis Lee Crenshaw / Rich Hall 1 - Bill Hicks I really like Katherine Ryan too but top 5 ever might be a stretch since she's fairly new. Sarah Silverman gets an honourable mention too, and Kevin Bridges, although he is patchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
