Charles Montgomery Burns ● Waylon Smithers, Jr. ● Canary M. Burns ● Al Simmons ● Executive 1 ● Executive 2 ● Executive 3 ● Burns' Dog In 2014, Shearer won a Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Voice-Over Performance for his performance on "Four Regrettings and a Funeral" for voicing Mr. Burns. [118] Trivia [ ] When he accidentally hits Bart with his car, he doesn’t even bother to wonder if he’s alright, then even tries to murder Bart and Grandpa Simpson in “The Curse of the Flying Hellfish. Mr. Burns is a member of various organizations. In his early years, while he was a college student at Yale University, he was a member of the Skull and Bones society. During World War II, Burns became a member of the Flying Hellfish squad, a group of soldiers who entered into a tontine regarding the ownership of German artwork. Burns was a member of the Stonecutters until it disbanded, at which time he joined the secret society that succeeded it: The Ancient Mystic Society of No Homers (One source of dislike of Burns for the "Stonecutters" is that despite his wealth and greed, he is outranked by Lenny). He is currently the head of the Springfield Republican Party and once headed a short-lived religion. He is also a member of the "Excludes Club", the Springfield Golf and Country Club, and the National Rifle Association. He holds a chair (a demonic throne with snarling dogs chained to it) at Springfield University and controls an anti-democratic paramilitary force in Latin America.

Burns spent time as a biochemist and bioterrorist before owning the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. When Homer was six [27] [28] or nine, [29] Burns operated a biological weapons laboratory until it was destroyed by peace activists - including Homer's mother, Mona Simpson. [30] Attempted Murder: In the same previously mentioned episode, Mr. Burns hit Bart, killing him, yet being revived. In " Raging Abe Simpson and His Grumbling Grandson in "The Curse of the Flying Hellfish"", he tried to kill Abe to cheat on a tontine, and later attempted to drown Bart.

He is inspired by Mr. Potter from It's a Wonderful Life, since Matt Groening's high school teacher was named Mr. Bailey, which is the surname of the film's main protagonist, George Bailey. Ninjago: Anacondrai Cultists | Anacondrai Serpent | Clouse | Eyezor | Lord Garmadon | Master Chen | Nindroid Army | Overlord | Skulkin Burns seems to be modeled after Jacob Rothschild and Janez Janša. He also shares a few similarities with both of them. In the last level, the player can climb up to Mr. Burns' office. The player also sees him in Level 7, where he provides the player with a map containing all of the nuclear waste barrels he buried all over Springfield (although due to Homer saying "aliens", Mr. Burns initially thought he was going to use them to kill off illegal immigrants until Homer clarified that he meant "tentacle aliens") and can eventually drive his car if the player completes the bonus mission in Level 7. He also implies in this level that he had murdered Merriweather, his old business partner and had been haunted by him, since he's initially mistaken Homer for his ghost and lets slip his murder of him and causing him to express awkwardness when learning Homer is not his ghost. He once tried to run for Governor – until Marge Simpson forever ruined his chances with a three-eyed fish. At the end he echoes Charles Foster Kane ( Citizen Kane) by crying out his name in rage—and vows for the rest of his life to make Homer Simpson's life miserable. [44]Mr. Burn's personality classification is that he is a sadistic, cold, life-hating ecological terrorist with a sadistic passion for autarchy. He has an incurable process addiction of devising destructive, disruptive, life-hating plots for his own gain. Mr Burns personally enjoys the dehumanization of new, creative, bright employees because he ignores how that dehumanization relates to his profits. Mr. Burns' main conflict with himself is his musculoskeletal condition is so bad, that he is constantly achy and he is generally of poor and low character. Mr. Burns never took his billions of dollars to buy any class for himself. Mr. Burns embodies a number of sometimes accurate stereotypes about Corporate America, as he has an unquenchable desire to increase his own wealth and power. Burns also embodies the stereotype of a manager by forgetting his employees' names (especially Homer's, despite Homer appearing that he interacts more than Burns does with most of his employees), though this can be attributed to his senility. Burns is also unconcerned for their safety and well-being (the plant, for example, is filled with obvious safety violations). Mr. Burns makes a cameo in the Harvest Moon manga as one of the crowd to rebuild Claire's grandfather's farm. It seems that everyone in Springfield is destined to have a go at being the next in line for Monty’s enormous fortune. The original, and the best, attempt at this storyline came from season five. It seems that Mr. Burns’s heartless nature began at a young age. In the episode Rosebud, we learn that he was actually born to humble parents and had a modest but happy childhood. He was launched to a life of privilege only after a billionaire showed up and offered to take him from his family. The townspeople still believed he was a monster and wanted to kill him anyway, but Smithers rushed in and stopped them, explaining that it was really Burns. He has his brain flushed out with vinegar and his eyes "re-balled". His knees are also sent out to be repaired at a "shop." His dentures replace themselves. [37] In the future, Burns may be kept alive by cryonics.

Depending on the account, he was a child in 1909, [15] 1913, [16] or 1935, [17] and was an adult in the 19th century, [18] 1914 (with his 25-year college reunion taking place in 1939), [19] between the wars, [20] or in the 1920s. [21] His parents were either affectionate [4] or cold and distant. [17] [22] The nuclear power plant is an obvious one, but it’s also suggested that he bought the rights to the song "White Christmas" which brings in millions of dollars ‘round the holidays. 4 Harry Shearer wasn’t the only voice of Mr. Burns.

According the Simpsons Uncensored Family Album, Burns bought Springfield's gas and electric company when he was in his twenties. This may be the same electric company mentioned in Who Shot Mr. Burns?. Framing: Burns had Smithers edit footage of his Attempted Treason (above) by putting Homer in his place; this resulted in Homer being arrested and sent to prison. Also, Mr. Burns and Homer are actually related by marriage (which makes Bart being Burns' heir extremely ironic, because Bart would be related to him).

Supposedly, the last Plantagenet was King Richard III who was killed in battle by Henry Tudor. This implies that Mr. Burns is a secret descendant of King Richard.
