The many deaths of Hans Moleman: Forced off the road by Homer; flies off a cliff. Otto runs his AMC Gremlin off the road; his car stops narrowly missing a tree and then explodes anyway. His thick eyeglasses act as a magnifying glass and set him on fire. Is executed in Springfield after Homer eats his last meal. Burns, on an ether-induced hallucination, drills into Moleman's head thinking he's the Lucky Charms leprechaun. Engulfed by an anti-escape orb as Marge escapes from the Movementarians. Blown up by an explosive éclair meant to poison Homer. Knocked out by Homer in jail with a book. (possible death) The French neutron bomb Springfield, presumably killing Hans along with most everyone else. Hauled away by thugs at the retirement home when he makes a comment about the senior-edited Gone with the Wind (1939) they are watching. (he is possibly killed) Seen trapped in the phone booth in the bird sanctuary (which becomes a parody of The Birds (1963)). We don't see his death, but if you've seen The Birds (1963), you know his fate is sealed. Drowned in quicksand in season twelve, episode twenty-one, "Simpsons Tall Tales". Accidentally run over by Homer at the end of season thirteen, episode two, "The Parent Rap". In season two, episode three, "Treehouse of Horror", when Ned predicts Moleman's death, Ned saves Moleman, but then drops him into a manhole where there are lots of crocodiles.
After Phil Hartman was murdered, the various characters he played, such as lawyer Lionel Hutz and actor Troy McClure, were retired, rather than re-cast. However, they continued to appear silently in crowd scenes. Season ten, episode three, "Bart the Mother" (September 27, 1998) was his final voice performance.
In season three, episode fourteen, "Lisa the Greek," Lisa, angry at Homer for tricking her into helping him gamble on football, makes a bet that if she loves him, the winner of the Super Bowl will be the Washington Redskins, and if she doesn't, the Buffalo Bills would come out on top (Washington won). Actually, when the show premiered just before the Super Bowl, those two teams were squaring off in Super Bowl XXVI, and Washington came out on top 37-24. Over the next three years, FOX made it a tradition to air the episode just before the Super Bowl, and change the dialogue, so that the teams would include whatever teams were playing that year. According to the DVD commentary, Lisa accurately picked the winning team every single year.
This is the longest running primetime comedy series, as well as the longest-running primetime animated series, in U.S. television history.
A television critic titled his article "Worst Episode Ever!" after watching a late 1990s episode, and criticized the show's writing. In the later seasons, there are many episodes in which the Comic Book Guy criticizes a character by saying "Worst episode ever!" and "Worst (action) ever!" in reference to the television critic's article.
