    Awww I was actually a receptionist at the NYC studio where Colbert came in to record his Simpsons lines. The recordist knew that I was a huge Simpsons fan, so he handed me Colbert's script, filled with page tabs and highlights of his lines. The recordist said, "Now, don't put this on eBay!" I still have it, and want Colbert to sign it. :-) Also, Hank Azaria came in every Friday afternoon to record his lines for the upcoming Sunday show. He was always super friendly. Just wanted to share that. :-)

    His jacket. I saw a guy at a concert with the same pattern in teal, green and cream white. I think it was either JC Penny, Sears or Wards, 1968-1974.

    Brockmire is some of the most brilliant TV out there.

    Omg, he's still so young looking. I remember him on the tracey ullman show.

      He wasn't on the Tracey Ullman Show. That was only Dan Castellanetta and Julie Kavner. Nancy Cartwright and Yardley Smith were cast just the voices.

    Awwww, when me and my siblings were little our dad would read us stories and do all the voices, and if he tried to do it normally we'd get upset and make him do the voices! Story time with dad was the best! ^_^

    I saw that S03E01 and the previous 2 Ss, really good episode as the previous 2 Ss, good story to help depressive people like me, no matter how fucked up you are, you can get off addictions and depression, fixing in baby steps the trauma because of the abuse you suffered by finding a constructive and positive emotional solution for the emotional problem. And about Hank he is a realistic person, might be depressive himself, but a truth-based good human being

    What's crazy is that he was 25 years old when the Simpson first aired in December 1989 and he's turning 55 years old next month.

      You're right. According to my calculations, he'd be 65. Does the man have no concept of time?
