I was surprised how challenging Professor Frink's Simpsons History was to put together! There was a temptation to just turn the video into one long list of his inventions or scientific reports, since that's what the large majority of his cutaway joke appearances are. Tried to put a little more emphasis on the personality spotlight moments, although it resulted in a pretty long "Al Jean Era" section. (Next time we need a candidate who peaked in the early years) 😛

An idea for a character history could be marges mum, she’s this weird character that’s never really seen that much in the present obviously, but she’s so intriguing as a flash back character as she clearly messed up Marge in a few ways. Her advice she gave to Marge (in which Marge gives to Lisa for a second before taking it back) in moaning Lisa comes to mind. Where she actively tells Marge not be sad “to show what a good mother she has.” And it’s not the only time she’s been seen giving advice like that to my knowledge at least

A pretty logical way to lead from Frink to the next Simpsons character would be Comic Book Guy, come to think of it. Looking at the more cynical Yang to Frink's more adventurous and joyful Ying. It is also another character that, while it had solid moments in the classical era, grew a lot in the later years, even marrying someone at the later seasons. I vote for either that or Willy, because Willy.

I love Frink because he reminds me of the really nerdy people in my advanced classes in high school who got As, understood the material, and worked on very ambitious projects. Frink represents the overly intellectual nerd that Lisa or Martin represent but as the adult in Simpsons World. Besides the students that Homer befriends in the episode of him going to college, there are very few outwardly nerdy adult characters and fewer characters who aren't one-offs. Martin's dad may be one. And Allison's dad in Lisa's Rival. But they're portrayed as being more snobby than intellectual. And we have Comic Book Guy for that.

I think he is a positive and a pretty smart character. The writers in the older episodes did not play on the loneliness card at all which was nice. My favorite moment is definitely the automated tap dancing device. He really did something nice there, which sets him apart of the Comic book guy big time. I generally love his enthusiasm for trying out new wacky inventions. I will always view him positively, although I'm too not a huge fan of the voices he makes sometimes :D

Moe reminds me a whole lot of Mr. Reese from Clarence; both are cantankerous, both have a bleakly negative view of the world, and both display some behaviors that are...unsettling, to say the least. But above all, both of these characters are lonely, and a lot of their troubling behaviors come from how desperate they are for human connection. They legitimately want to have friends, but lack the social skills needed to form healthy relationships, which is probably why they're so curmudgeonly. However, whenever they do have positive interactions with others, they become much more good-natured. While their ways of being in the world are often extremely off-putting, more than anything they're just depressed because they're unable to connect with others.

When you got to the point where you were analyzing the depressing side of Frink's life, my immediate thought was, "Huh, so he's like Gladstone Gander?" A character that appears to be, and is, one type, in Frink's case a well educated scientist, but on the surface is much lonelier than they really let on, so they just kind of bury themselves in this one trait they have, Frink with Science, Gladstone with his luck. I'll admit, the comparison isn't totally apt, but that is where my immediate thought went. Maybe I just got to tie everything back into Duck Comics, I dunno.

Considering Apu is making a comeback in this forthcoming season I think it would be cool if Apu visits his old teacher Frink in an episode for some career advice

I've said this before, but I really think Disco Stu would be a good candidate for this sort of examination.

I'll throw my support on the next Histories being on Willy. Aside Mrs. K and Skinner, he's the most important Springfield Elementary character and in general Willy is just fun to look at and explore.

Professor Frink is one of those Simpsons characters who appearance really adds a lot to the show, he's personally my favorite characters for his Jerry Lewis type personality and his quirky inventions.

Disco Stu does not advertise, that's why I have to do it for him. Where's the Disco Stu video?

For the next Simpsons history, I say all these bloated gasbags ought to make way for Willie. That said, now that you mention it I'd also love to see a deeper dive into Shelbyville.

I am once again asking you to give us a Lenny and Carl episode. That all aside, this was a super fun video. I never really thought about how deeply central Frink is to so many storylines and episodes. Also, I have to say, if choosing from the characters you mentioned at the end of this video, I vote for Quimby. He seems like he's got a lot more to him that would make for a very interesting video.

Gil could be an interesting character to tackle since people seemed to be more split about him. One group likes him, others hate him, and a lot seemed to not care about him.

Another great Simpsons Histories! Here's my requests: I've been very excited for a Shelbyville episode for a while now. I also seem to champion paired characters, like Lenny and Carl, barflies Sam and Larry, and Bill and Marty the Springfield KBBL radio DJs. And for solo characters, I'd love to see Squeaky Voiced Teen or the Wise Guy! (I believe his name's Raphael)

I wish Frink's spotlight episodes weren't just the "science man has no social skills" cliché. Makes them too similar to Moe episodes, which usually cover his loneliness.

Going so in-depth on this so early and the money theory basically just paid off 30 years of "who is this?" The character suddenly makes sense and I didn't realize how important this person was to me until contextualized like this.

I’ve always liked Frink cuz he’s never overused. He comes when necessary or unexpected. And when it’s unexpected it’s very brief and I like that he doesn’t overstay his welcome.
