The Simpsons: Every Main Character Ranked Worst To Best

The Simpsons is crawling with geeks, dorks and nerds. They've got smart ones like Lisa and Martin, fandom obsessed ones like Comic-Book Guy, and then pure losers like Milhouse. Despite having such a low social standing and a lack of confidence, this blue-haired boy is easily one of the best characters.

He's instantly funny thanks to his goofiness and lack of social skills, but there have been some deeper elements that make him a little more three-dimensional. For example, seeing him navigate his parents' divorce in "A Milhouse Divided" showed that his family life could be tough. Plus, he's also proven to be a little bit of a manipulator, as best shown in the fantastic episode "Bart Sells His Soul".

While he's never going to end up becoming prom king, there's a lot more behind those red glasses than you'd think, which makes him an incredibly entertaining character.
