Okay, it's lame, and I'm only posting it here because I haven't said Hi to you guys in so long.

NOT LENNY!!!!!

Lenny and Carl are more important than the Wiggums or Lovejoy. End of story.

Come on, without Chief Wiggums, you wouldn't have The Chosen One, President Ralph.

I assume that is a rhetorical question. You do know what a rhetorical question is, don't you?

Anyway, the type of list you describe can be found at dailypress.com.

Has anyone come up with a list of the 10 lamest supporting characters in the Simpsons?

I vote for Janey, Arnie Pye, Disco Stu, Jaspar, The Cat Lady, Dolph, the white cop that isn't Chief Wiggum, Hans Moleman, Ron Howard, and either Cookie Kwan or Lindsay Nagle.

Each of the 10 characters in the list has been the "star" of an episode, rather than always being involved in the background somehow (even if they were featured in the B plot).

That being said, the answer to your question is, "The same kind of list that leaves out Principal Skinner." (He deserves to be there much more than Lenny or Carl - or Chief Wiggum - does.) I would also consider replacing Quimby with Mrs. Krabappel.
