Warning: Spoilers for The Simpsons season 34, episode 16.Since The Simpsons season 34 has spent many episodes exploring the surprising internal lives of random supporting stars, it was disappointing to see that the series has given up on fleshing out some of its characters. With over 700 episodes and a penchant for introducing one-off joke characters, The Simpsons has inevitably ended up with one of the biggest casts in television history. There are thousands of named characters in The Simpsons, ranging from the main stars of the titular family to obscure, long-forgotten background characters. In season 34, The Simpsons has taken advantage of this sprawling cast.
