    I wanna clarify my comment about Lindsey getting her haircut to hook up with guys (instead of for work). It comes off a little like I'm surprised she wants to look hot for guys. I was trying to observe how odd it was that this Business Stereotype has changed so much in her characterization during that era. She went from like all business to no business and it struck me as strange.
    (I dunno if anyone really cares about that haircut comment, I just didn't think I explained what I meant that well at that part)

      Duffman
      Shauna Chalmers
      Snowball
      Santa's Little Helper
      Manjula
      You might even focus on the various buildings in Springfield.
      Here are some building ideas:
      Moe's Tavern
      Nuclear Plant
      First Church of Springfield
      Springfield Elementary
      Town Hall

    Lindsey is one of those character that you think is just a one off background character every time she appears and then you're like "oh yeah I remember her"
    Also I wonder if her abrupt "I'm an alcoholic" and "I'm a sexual predator" lines are ways for her to get people to stop probing given her backstory of thievery, like "say something outrageous and uncomfortable to get them to shut up"

    Lindsey is a character I never really liked much when I was younger, but she has definitely grown on me over the years. I tend to lump her and cookie into the "post classic" era characters, so it always surprises me revisiting old episodes and seeing her show up in seasons 8 and 9 (I'm going to assume Female Business Executive is/was her, and that after she reformed from Teeny blowing her up, she regained the ability to cry)

Gil and Hans Moleman are kinda that way too, but they always felt to have a reason to it, Gil being that he fails at every job, and Moleman being that he's kind of a joke character anyway.

    I think one of the other reasons Lindsay often gets overlooked as a character is because she's one of those background characters that straddles the line between recurring archetype, like The Sarcastic Guy or The Squeaky-Voiced Teen, and full-fledged supporting character like Chief Wiggum or Mayor Quimby. She's much more akin to characters like Hans Moleman or Ol' Gill - characters who have names and specific personality traits associated with them, but aren't meant to have strong continuity behind them. The problem Lindsay runs into in this role is that she's less immediately distinct and memorable than her fellow multi-use characters - She doesn't have as immediately distinctive of a voice as Ol' Gill, nor is she some kind of mole man, like Hans Moleman, her design and mannerisms are, at first glance at least, much more mundane. As a result I think a lot of viewers tend to mentally file her in the same category as the background archetype characters and don't really register her recurring appearances as being a single, coherent character so much as a general archetype, I know I certainly have.
    And it's kind of a shame that that happens because, as this video demonstrates, Lindsay is a great character with some absolutely amazing moments and bits. But she's a character that doesn't have as immediate and memorable a hook as others that sticks in people's minds, so they remember the bits she has, but don't connect them as being part of the same character.

      That's a good way of putting it! Lindsay's one of those characters whose design doesn't live up to the Matt Groening rule that you should be able to tell who they are just from silhouette.

    Lindsey Naegle's legitimately one of my favourite characters, so happy this video exists.
    Literally just her entire existence is funny to me, I love her almost Phil Hartman-esque line deliveries.
    I like pretty much all of her appearances a lot, I legitimately found it hillarious how often she used to be appear.
    I remember being very disappointed when I was watching through 16-26 and even though she's more prominent from 27 onwards, idk it still doesn't feel like she appears a lot anymore.
    I prefer her in a business role, but her promiscious role is good too tbh, I find her sheer existence funny so it doesn't matter what she does, I'll probably like it

    Lindsey is genuinely one of my favorite Simpsons characters. She has one of the highest ratios of jokes that kill me to her total screentime. I do consider her and "female marketing executive" to be clearly the same character, btw.
    This has honestly been the Simpsons histories I've been waiting for the longest, along with Miss Hoover. For the next one, I would still like to see the Sea Captain! He's another interesting "million jobs" character who kind of exists on the periphery of the cast. But what interests me about him is how, characters like Lindsey and the Squeaky Voiced Teen fill much more common, relatable day-to-day generic roles, the Sea Captain is so particularly cartoonish. It's so funny how often they find use for this guy.

      Characters can lie as well, it's not out of character for her to make up a lie like that.
      She can cry, but she doesn't care enough about what's happening to do so. She knows that she's coming off as cold and uncaring so to save face she invents a reason why she can't cry.
      While she's capable of being brutally honest, she's also quick to lie if it serves her professional goals.
      As far as retcons go I'd say it's a pretty minor one.

    I like Lindsay. I mean, I don't, she's an awful person, but she brings a fun energy. Marge vs SSCCATAG is a great episode. I never realised until this video just how many times Lindsay's default outfit has changed - from the suit with the ribbon tie, to the V-neck with the frilly sleeves, to the cardigan and camisole, to the current suit with the buttoned up shirt. Multiple colour changes among them all too. I guess she's the only person in Springfield with an actual wardrobe?
    As for the exec in The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show and Girly Edition, my vote is that yes, it's her.
    Regarding future Simpsons Histories, let's make the people who think Lindsay is the harbinger of the end *really* upset. Julio or Shauna.

    I would have included the Omni Touch representative in season 10's "Make Room For Lisa" as a Lindsey prototype. She's pretty much the same character just with a different design. The other all-purpose characters, the squeaky-voiced teen and the sarcastic man, who work a multitude of jobs and have little relationship with the Simpson family, had different character designs before before having a consistent look and a name (Jeremy and Raphael respectively). She was probably thought of as "generic business woman" in her earlier appearances serving a more functional role in a story then as an appreciated character in her own right.

  • @EmployeeAMillion
    @EmployeeAMillion 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +12

    Lindsey Naegle is one of my favourite characters to mostly exist outside of the classic era. She snuck into the show quickly with a bunch of notes and questions, and that’s the Lindsey Naegle way. I also think Tress MacNeille is one of the only voice actors who could make those darker lines remotely workable.
    I also noticed that you’re starting to refer to HD seasons as part of “the middle era”, which is gonna take some time for me to get used to. Most of the time, when someone says “middle seasons” in the context of The Simpsons, they usually mean c.10-the movie. But currently, the mathematical middle of the show would be 13-23. Time takes no prisoners.

    • @Belgand
      @Belgand 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Middle will always be post-Golden Age. The specific term might change or it will get subdivided, but it's definitely the Middle Ages compared to the Modern Era of the past few seasons.
      I think we'll eventually define it as the Al Jean era. With the Scully years forming a sort of transitional hangover period.

      ​@Getlucky12 Personally, I would love to see a Histories or Mysteries video on Allison from "Lisa's Rival". I always thought it was so interesting that the character was introduced as a Friend of the Week for the special celebrity guest star (she was voiced by Winona Ryder)... but instead of disappearing like most of these characters do, she ended up being relegated to a background character, only serving as part of Lisa's friend group along with Janey, and Sherri and Terri that dumps Lisa when the writers need Lisa to clash with another celebrity-voiced character like Alex Whitney.
      It's just so weird because we see throughout "Lisa's Rival" Allison seems to genuinely like Lisa as a person, and likes being friends, and even when Lisa admits to trying to sabotage her diorama out of jealousy, Allison forgives Lisa and they seem to make up and remain friends, only for Allison to become... well, I wanna say Richard and Lewis type characters, but they at least still get speaking roles and interact with Bart (or occasionally Lisa). I don't think Allison has had a true speaking role outside of "Lisa's Rival" since that episode first aired - at least none that I've noticed! The extent of her interactions with Lisa, or even Sherri and Terri and Janey, is just silently existing as a member of the group and nodding along with whatever someone else says, and maybe a bit of background chatter where the character isn't actually saying anything, the VA is just making random crowd noise to make the scene feel more lively.

I've always found her quite entertaining, and the fact she's voiced by the greatest voice actress around, only strengthens that. I've always loved her entertainment industry appearances, and love when she pops up in other things, given she's so much fun. It's hard to say what my absolute favorite moments with her are, but I love her appearances in episodes like Marge vs. Singles, Seniors, Childless Couples, and Teens, and Gays, as well as when she appears in episodes when she's not quite the main focus, but has hilarious moments, such as in The Heartbroke Kid and Homer Scissorhands. Thank you for finally covering Lindsey Naegle.

He did an episode on Lindsey Naegle, and he expressed his frustration at how some fans and even The Simpsons as a whole doesn't give her the respect he felt she deserves. In particular he calls out The Simpsons Movie for not even bothering to show her among Tress MacNeille's credits despite showing Cookie Kwan and Crazy Cat Lady.
