Lisa Simpson is The 16th Best Animated Character

On Dec 7, Fox aired a special that revealed the Top 40 Funniest Animated Stars, voted by America and tallied by the Nielsen Company and Lisa ranked in as The 16th Funniest and Beloved Animated Character.

She may not be as iconic as Daffy Duck or Stewie Griffin, but America spoke and voted Lisa Simpson as one of the greats, and she beat Characters like Yogi Bear, Hank Hill, Lois Griffin, Mr. Burns, her Mother Marge Simpson, Cleveland Brown, Lola Bunny, and even Beavis and Butthead.

Basically what I'm saying is, Lisa Simpson undeniably one of the Best Animated Characters ever. No more saying Lisa is the Worst Character in the history of Worst Characters, but if you still think that that she is, well then https://m.youtube.com/?tab=w1#/watch?v=SQh80G5TAek

Lola Bunny

I still can't believe that she made the list. Granted, she seems to have improved vastly since her Space Jam days, but still.

Remember kids, dressing up like Hitler in school isn't cool!

[–] Purple_Cloud_9 9 years ago

What other things has Lola Bunny been in besides Space Jam?

[–] Andthatismytwocents 9 years ago

Scooby Doo above Mickey Mouse

ahem

NO F$%^ING WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Stewie # 1 not gonna say it

[–] purplebear17 9 years ago

Lisa ranked higher than bart and homer and marge and maggie?

[–] The_Damned_One 9 years ago

Shocked, aren't you.

I would love the opportunity to kill you legally

[–] HalHopandPop 9 years ago

She ranked higher than Mr. Burns and Marge. Bart and Homer ranked higher than her, and Maggie didn't make the list.

Milo, I've told you again and again - please, don't walk on the chickens!

What other things has Lola Bunny been in besides Space Jam?

She appeared in the new Looney Tunes show from the year 2011, with a somewhat wackier personality.

[–] Purple_Cloud_9 9 years ago

Yeah, I figured but I don't see how that "vastly improved her character".

[–] redhed311 9 years ago

It did. In Space Jam, she was a bland and oversexualized character with no flaws. Anything is better than that.

Remember kids, dressing up like Hitler in school isn't cool!

[–] Purple_Cloud_9 9 years ago

I personally didn't find her bland, though. I thought she was very interesting.

[–] redhed311 9 years ago

She was boring. She had no personality and she was too perfect. All of the other characters had their funny quirks. The only thing that set her apart was her gender. As a female, I really hate that.

[–] Purple_Cloud_9 9 years ago

I personally thought she was a cool character but whatever.

[–] redhed311 9 years ago

Well, the world would be a very boring place if we all had the same opinions.

Remember kids, dressing up like Hitler in school isn't cool!

[–] Purple_Cloud_9 9 years ago

True.

[–] deadpool831 8 years ago

Boring, yes. But depending on what that opinion is, things could actually work out for us.

I believe in the right to bear arms, as long as my arms are the ones that are being beared.

[–] purplebear17 9 years ago

No she was cool in space jam.

[–] SALTER-pt 9 years ago

She was a decent character before the writers took her in directions that were concurrently unbelievable and tiresome.

She was good when she was a precocious but still somewhat normal 8-year-old. As a Dostoyevsky-reading super-genius and activist she's simply ridiculous.

[–] deadpool831 9 years ago

And yet she still made it.

[–] rhs6358 9 years ago

Does she still plan on marrying a carrot?

[–] deadpool831 9 years ago

You can try and take this away from me but that's not going to work.

[–] woodntuliketoknow 9 years ago

Yes, she is going to marry a carrot

Terrible....take a lap

[–] SALTER-pt 9 years ago

None of which dissuades me from my expressed opinion.

[–] deadpool831 9 years ago

All I need to know is that Lisa is loved by a nation, and hated by a select few.

[–] AutoexecBatman 9 years ago

Yes, and a poll sponsored by FOX totally proves how loved she is. 

[–] deadpool831 9 years ago

There you go, this guy gets it.

[–] The_Damned_One 9 years ago

So your denying that Homer Simpson is more iconic and beloved than Peter Griffin

I would love the opportunity to kill you legally

[–] purplebear17 9 years ago

According to me homer is way more lovable compared to peter griffin.

[–] lovetheearth 9 years ago

YAY!!!! 

[–] ladybyron68 8 years ago

For me, Lisa Simpson has become the Meg Griffin of The Simpsons, with the exception that she's preachy way too mature for an 8 year-old.

[–] DebLovesBeccy 8 years ago

That is wonderful news.

Lisa has always been my favourite character on the Simpsons and she reminds me of my youngest niece who is autistic and is very smart for her age.

[–] jonasmcgreggor 8 years ago

Yea because it's not like Lisa is widely despised or anything, and a nauseating mouthpiece for progressive zealots that shove their opinions down everybody's throat and viciously discriminates against anyone who dare not share their opinions.

The very fact you felt the need to make this post tells me you don't believe what you're saying yourself, which is another telltale sign of a progressive, deliberate deception and making up lies to support your narrative.

[–] deadpool831 8 years ago

Okay I only understood half of that rant, but I'll fire at the part that hurt the most.
*ahem* I do believe in what I'm saying. Why did I feel to post this? To use it as a sort of Bitch-Slap to Lisa-haters.

I firmly believe that those who denies this is just that, in denial and angry about it and just refuse to accept it. Like Christians with Evolution, like Republicans with Global Warming, like console gamers refusing to accept PC is better.

I believe in the right to bear arms, as long as my arms are the ones that are being beared.

[–] greenmandmspt2 8 years ago

console gamers refusing to accept PC is better.

That is a biased statement.

And consoles are totally better.
