Opal is the host of the daytime talk show The Opal Show. She makes her first appearance in "Ice Cream of Margie (with the Light Blue Hair)."
She was originally voiced by Tress MacNeille, but she is currently voiced by Dawnn Lewis.
Biography[]
On her show, Opal frequently mentions a boyfriend named "Straightman." Asking about him causes her to do a massive prize giveaway as a diversionary tactic, one example being German cuckoo clocks.
Behind the Laughter[]
Opal is voiced by Tress MacNeille, and first appeared in "Ice Cream of Margie (with the Light Blue Hair)," where she convinces Marge that she has no meaning in life.
Opal is a parody of Oprah Winfrey, as is her show.
The real Oprah Winfrey has also appeared on the Simpsons, where her animated form is shown on her talk show approaching the Simpson residence. A slovenly Homer answers shocked, and says he thought the interview was tomorrow.
