| What is the name of
skinner's mother? - Anton Phew.. a easy one, her name is
Agnes.
|
| Do you think Smithers
should be heterosexual & what's his middle name? - Rebecca
No, because without
Smither's being gay the Mr Burn's and Smither's
relationship would be boring e.g. do you remember classic
Burn's and Smither's moments such as "Smithers you
don't even know the meaning of the word gay!" and
"(Smithers P.C. Boots Up) Smither's - you - are - so
- good - at - turning - me - on".
As for his middle name,
the only ever mention of this was in in 8f10 where his
name was listed as J. Smithers. The J stands actually stands for Waylon Jr. Smithers, his
frther died when he
was a baby. (Thanks to Shlomo for pointing this out
to us!)

draw different clothes for each episode it would just
take far to long.
