"Frankly Scarlet, I love you. Let's remarry."
Name five characters voiced by Jon Lovitz.

Since no one seems to know, I'll take a stab. Fair warning, most are going to be vague descriptors rather than names.
Jay Sherman Artie Ziff The director of "Oh Streetcar!"... wasn't his name "Llewelyn" or something? Marge's art teacher ...Five? Seriously?

I didn't want to answer cause I couldn't name the same guys you had trouble with, Drew. But if we're going by descriptions, I can help out.
Jon Lovitz is also the voice of a Shelbyville power plant owner. His names Horatio and Maximillion are coming to mind...I know the character's Greek. He wears sunglasses and has white hair.
And he does the voice of Llewellyn's sister (the harsh day care owner) as well. So that's six right there.

Let's get this thread moving again....
The ones I had were Artie Ziff, Dr. Lombardo (art teacher), Aristotle Amadopoulis (Shelbyville nuke plant owner), Llewellyn Sinclair (director), his sister (never named), Jay Sherman, and Mr. Seckofsky (homer's high school shop teacher).
Drew, since you got four of them, the floor is yours.

Let's try a fairly (I think) easy one:
A famous politician was offered a guest spot on the Simpsons and declined. Several years later, while in a tight race for office, his aides approached the producers about doing a guest spot and were turned down, because you only get one shot with the Simpsons. Name that politician.

Al Gore?

BING! Gold star for Al. Your question, sir.
(And since Gore would go on to appear in Futurama, apparently Matt Groening doesn't hold a grudge.)

Well, Gore DID appear on the Simpsons, but voiced by an actor, not himself. Same with Bush Sr.

They alluded to it on one of the season 8 DVD commentaries I'm watching right now, so I thought it was worth a shot.
Name 6 of Cletus' children.

Incest, Crystal Meth, Dubya, Gummy Sue, Rubella Scabies, and Qbert! There are a bunch with more 'normal' names, too... but what fun is that? When the crayon gets removed from Homer's brain, what does his IQ go up to? AND, when Moe re-inserts the crayon, how does he know that he has sufficiently returned Homer to his former state of intelligence? (<-- I'm looking for a really funny quote, here)

I think the IQ score was 105, but the quote eludes me, sorry. And seeing as the question's been up for 5 days, I think it's run its course. What real American city was in an uproar over the Simpsons musical "Streetcar", and why?

105 is correct- and the quote was "extended warranty- how could I lose?!?!"
New Orleans was angry because one of the songs said it was home to 'pirates, drunks, and whores.' The song actually said a lot of mean stuff, but that is the only line that I remember directly.
In the Mr Plow episode, who helps Barney make his Plow King ad?
