![]() He's a TV fixture, but also an anachronism - TV clowns haven't really been a thing for decades, but Krusty still plugs away to the delight of kids like Bart and Lisa, playing Itchy & Scratchy cartoons while also maintaining an international merchandising empire and keeping up a life of debauchery. But he's also incredibly driven to be rich and famous, or at least stay that way. He's not a bright and sunny clown, nor even the cliched "sad clown" - he's angry, bitter, and takes a number of mood-enhancing and -balancing drugs. From the beginning of The Simpsons, Krusty has been one of the show's most well-developed and complex characters. He's the host of his own afternoon kids' TV show on Springfield's Channel 5, but he's far more than a red-nose-wearing, wacky physical comedian. Of all the hundreds of colorful side characters on The Simpsons, there's no one quite as memorable - or bizarre - as Krusty the Clown.
