Changes: Lindsey Naegle

Revision as of 03:07, 31 July 2008

Lindsey Naegle (often spelt Lindsay Naegle#REDIRECT Lindsey Naegle) is a character in The Simpsons voiced by Tress MacNeille. Lindsey is Springfield's residential business link.

Character Development

Lindsey makes her first appearance in “The Itchy & Scratchy & Poochie Show.” In this episode her character was simply referred to as “Female Network Executive,” and had brunette hair instead of her usual blonde hair. She later returned in “Girly Edition.” In “They Saved Lisa’s Brain,” the character was introduced as Lindsey Naegle, a member of the Springfield Mensa Society and head of Advanced Capital Ventures, specializing in synergy and books on how to cheat at bridge.

Character Traits

Alcoholism

She is an alcoholic (she says so matter-of-factly to Homer when she appears in Moe’s Tavern). Also, in Days of Wine and D'oh'ses, it's revealed she's the head of the Alcoholics Anonymous branch in Springfield, and she says "So we all know why we're here - to be sober .. and to network!"

Dislikes

Lindsey is known to be a common youth-hater. In the episode "Marge vs. Singles, Seniors, Childless Couples and Teens, and Gays", Lindsey, outraged at paying high damages for particular riots that the youth have caused, formed an anti-youth group named SSCCATAGAPP (Singles, Seniors, Childless Couples And Teens And Gays Against Proud Parents), and lobby to deprive Springfield of all child-friendly things. Her campaign is a success, but thanks to the infectious nature of children (hugging, blushing, gushing, and smiling sweetly) planned by Bart and Lisa, falters, staggers, and finally collapses.

Jobs

Over the course of the series, Lindsey has popped up in several capacities, seemingly working at a different job in every episode. Job titles have included the aforementioned network executive, as well as marketing researcher, financial planner (making a point that she wasn’t a financial consultant), public relations consultant, venture capitalist, advertising executive, and executive with the Child Development Group. After she introduces herself (again) to Homer and Marge in the episode “Blame It on Lisa”, Marge says, “We’ve met you many times, Ms. Naegle; why do you keep changing jobs?” To which Lindsey flatly replies, “I’m a sexual predator.”

Love Life

Naegle once dated Ned Flanders, but the date was interrupted by Naegle receiving a fax (from a fax machine strapped to her leg) which indicated she had been indicted. She is an enthusiastic practitioner of the childfree lifestyle, and at one point spearheads a movement to make Springfield less child-friendly. Once romantically linked with Judge Roy Snyder, she is a graduate from the Wharton Business School. She is a stereotypical upper management executive, and her ventures almost always promote the business buzzword “synergy.”

In "You Kent Always Say What You Want", it's implied by Sideshow Mel that she's been sleeping with Krusty the Clown, due to the way they were both giggling and blushing.
