How old is Mr Burns exactly? I know he is often said to be 104, but there was one early episode where he tells Homer that he is 81, and I'm not sure but I think another age is given in aother episode.

First, the character even though a cartoon, has an age. It's a legitimate question. Second, don't use foul and abusive language. If you do, realize that just because you don't properly identify yourself, your ISP can still tell who wrote the message when someone gets offended and reports you.

Barring the wonderfully articulated response you received before this one, I'll put in my two cents. It was said early on that Mr. Burns was 81, but I think his "official age" is now 104. I think the writers did this because it's much more outrageous for a character to be as alive and well as Mr. Burns is at 104 then 81. So, 104 it is!

Note, however, that he was a teenaged soldier in WWII, and is obviously younger than Grampa Simpson. I think 81 is about right.

Hmmm....one show where he's 81, compared to probably a dozen where he's 104...I think it's safe to say he's officially 104.
