Created by Matt Groening, The Simpsons debuted as a half-hour prime time show in and recently celebrated its 30th anniversary. The series is the longest running American sitcom and is currently enjoying its 31st season, with a 32nd one already confirmed. In all these years, viewers have met not only the Simpsons family but also other notable citizens from Springfield , both good and not so nice. A recurring antagonist in the series is Sideshow Bob, who has some unfinished businesses with the Simpsons, specially Bart.
Since then, Sideshow Bob has appeared in various episodes , sometimes as main character, and others in flashbacks or cameo appearances. Robert Underdunk Terwilliger Jr, a. He was originally Krusty the Clown 's sidekick, before starting a life of crime that began with an attempt to frame Krusty for armed robbery. Bob is a self-proclaimed genius, member of the Republican Party, champion of high culture, former children's entertainer-turned-criminal mastermind and Bart Simpson 's nemesis.
He loves operettas, the likes of Gilbert and Sullivan, and is also known for his gigantic feet, which have gotten him into trouble on more than one occasion. His younger brother, Cecil , was actually the one who was auditioning for the role, which Krusty was not impressed by and saw Bob as the ideal comic foil who would be ridiculous and never stand him up.
Sideshow Bob soon began to tire of these antics, and also realized that off-camera Krusty was engaging in vulgar behavior such as illegal gambling and patronizing strip joints.
Fed up with enduring abuse in order to make money to fund Krusty's carnal appetites, Sideshow Bob began plotting Krusty's downfall. After Krusty was arrested, Bob takes control of the show, introducing children to elements of high culture. However, Bob's reign is short-lived; Bart Simpson, with the help of his sister, Lisa, exposes Bob's treachery and Krusty is released.
Bart, with Lisa's help, was able to catch Bob mainly because Bob's large feet actually filled out Krusty's clown shoes, so when his foot was stepped on in the security footage he felt it and yelped. Had it actually been Krusty committing the robbery, he would not have felt his foot being stepped on or he may have worn normal shoes to aid in his getaway.
Bart and Lisa also knew that Krusty had a pacemaker and in the security footage Bob used the microwave, which the real Krusty could not do because it would interfere with his pacemaker. Finally, Krusty was illiterate and Bob was reading a magazine in the Kwik-E-Mart right before committing the robbery.
After the new evidence was brought forward, Bob was subsequently convicted for the robbery and sent to jail, but not before swearing vengeance on Bart. During his time in prison, Bob won an Emmy Award for his role on The Krusty the Clown Show , but his award was confiscated by the prison guards.
Bob took part in a prisoner dating service and went into a relationship with Selma Bouvier , Bart's aunt. He also took some satisfaction in making nameplates for cars during this time since it allowed him to make subtle threatening messages against Bart. After he was released from prison, he proposed and married Selma, despite Bart's protests. As part of a scheme to inherit the money she has invested in the stock market, Bob attempted to kill Selma by blowing up their hotel room during their honeymoon.
However, Bart again foiled the plan and Sideshow Bob returns to prison, exclaiming that as soon as the Democrats were back in office, he and all his criminal buddies would be back on the streets.
After being paroled from prison, Bob targeted Bart directly, threatening him repeatedly. His first attempt at threatening Bart involved mailing dozens of threatening letters written in Bob's own blood only one of the letters was not actually written by Sideshow Bob, written in a sloppy, grammatically-incorrect manner and obviously not being written in blood, which was instead written by Homer as revenge for Bart tattooing his butt with "Wide Load" , which also caused him some health problems due to blood loss.
The letters led Bart to become extremely paranoid. Bob eventually managed to get parole due to manipulating the Parole Jury with his intellect and cultured nature. He then unveiled his release to the Simpsons family in a movie theater and then proceeded to declare all the people he won't be killing, making sure to leave Bart off the list.
Bob, however, anticipated their relocation and followed them to their new houseboat, although the actual journey proved painful for Bob, having his head hit repeatedly by speed bumps, being scalded by coffee Homer threw out of the car, and being subject to cacti after the family decided to drive through the cactus patches, and then after getting out of the car, constantly hitting rakes. He eventually encountered Bart underneath another car but ended up losing his quarry due to the arrival of a parade celebrating Hannibal crossing the Alps, complete with elephants, although not without Bart noticing his presence.
Eventually, he, after infiltrating the houseboat and subduing the family, prepared to kill Bart. He allows a final request, however, and Bart asks to hear the entire score of H.
This delaying tactic leads to Bob's third arrest. Bob was released from prison once again after conservative commentator Birch Barlow convinced the public that Bob was a political prisoner.
After being released, he ran for Mayor of Springfield on a Republican Party ticket. He won the election against liberal incumbent Joe Quimby by a landslide. He then used his power as mayor to propose the demolition of the Simpsons house to make way for an Expressway and sent Bart back to Kindergarten. Bart and Lisa later discover that Bob rigged the election, and then manipulated him into confessing after implying he was simply a patsy, leading to another incarceration.
During his prison sentence, he began to develop a growing dislike of television, calling it "an omnidirectional sludge pump, droning and burping". While doing community service at an Air Force Base before an annual air show, Bob escaped from his work duty and sneaks into a hangar in the base disguising his voice with the mannerisms of Col.
Leslie "Hap" Hapablap, where he made off with a Nuclear device. During the air show, coincidentally being attended by the Simpsons family, Bob appeared on the television screens and threatened to blow up Springfield with a nuclear bomb unless the city stops broadcasting all television shows. When confronted by Bart and Lisa, the bomb is discovered to be a dud, and Sideshow Bob instead kidnaps Bart and hijacks the Wright Flier, planning to crash the Flier onto a shack where Krusty was broadcasting an impromptu TV show.
However, the plan fails, and Bob returned to prison. During yet another prison sentence, Bob became a member of the prison's Christian outreach program and tried to be genuinely redeemed. Reverend Lovejoy declared him a changed man and recommended him for a work release opportunity. Bob is discharged from prison into the care of his brother Cecil, who was Springfield 's chief hydrological and hydrodynamical engineer.
Though Bart constantly investigated him and his job at the dam still made him show signs of bitterness and resentment, he tried to be a good man. However, the scheming Cecil, still sulking over his failed audition for Krusty, tried to frame Bob by sabotaging the Springfield Dam. Bob, Bart, and Lisa together stopped Cecil and saved the town. However, both brothers were sent to prison despite Bob's genuine innocence due to chief Clancy Wiggum 's steadfast insistence about Bob's culpability despite all contrary testimony from Bart and Lisa.
When Krusty announces his retirement due to low ratings, Bob discovered from prison that Krusty has erased all of the early shows featuring Sideshow Bob. Bob is released from prison and developed a plot to kill Krusty. Using his new job as an intercom announcer at Springfield Elementary , he corners Bart in a shack off the school playground and hypnotizes Bart, planning to use him as a suicide bomber during Krusty's final retirement show.
However, when he overhears Krusty express regret about mistreating him, Bob decides to abort his plan, and although he is returned to prison for attempted murder, Krusty thanks him due to the fact that his show's ratings soar back up every time Bob tries to kill him.
Sideshow Bob, as a result of his attempted murder, was also originally going to be executed by the Guillotine, but Bob reminded Chief Wiggum that he was supposed to get a trial before committing the execution, causing it to be revoked and spend time in jail.
After a murder attempt is made on Homer Simpson 's life, Bob was temporarily released from prison to help find the culprit, much to the dismay and horror of Bart. To keep him from trying to hurt Bart, the police attach a shock garter to Bob's leg and gives the family a remote that shocks Bob at the push of the button, which proves effective.
However, the family, mainly Bart, misuse the remote, shocking Bob just for being too smart. During the course of the case, Bob actually saved Homer after an attempt on his life. When the mystery is solved, he returned to the Simpsons home to murder Bart. However, Bob found that he was "accustomed to Bart's face" and cannot do it. After gaining fame for his wine his exceptionally large feet made him a perfect grape crusher , he became the mayor of the town. He married a local woman named Francesca , with whom he has a son named Gino.
The Simpson family encountered him by chance after coming to Italy to retrieve a car for Mr. Bob welcomes them with hospitality on the condition that they do not reveal his felonious past; however, a drunken Lisa jokes about Bob's criminal deeds, eventually exposing Bob's past and causing Bob to be alienated from his citizens.
He, his wife and son swear a vendetta on the Simpsons. In a later attempt on Bart 's life, Bob lured the Simpsons family into a fake rib restaurant, and tied the entire family up, planning to kill them with the explosion of an overheating laptop next to a pile of TNT.
After Bob misquoted several lines on Shakespeare, Lisa managed to trick him into checking a line from a Shakespeare play on Wikipedia, resulting in the laptop exploding on his hands. During the trial, Bob's father, Robert Terwilliger, Sr. This convinced Springfield that in the long-run Bart is ultimately to blame, and they turn against him. As Bart pleads his innocence, Bob takes out a vial labeled nitroglycerin, which Bart snatches and throws out the window, thinking it was an explosive.
The vial was actually Bob's heart medication and he collapsed on the floor, unconscious, and was pronounced dead. In reality, Bob was actually faking his death and put in a temporary death-like state, as his father injected him with an anesthesia.
His entire family was assisting him to kill Bart. When a guilty Bart visits his coffin while being led by Cecil, Bob leaped out of the coffin and trapped Bart inside to be cremated inside the coffin. The Simpsons family saves Bart just in time by blinding Bob with unclaimed ashes. Bob's entire family, including his Italian wife and child, and his brother and parents, were sentenced to an year prison term, and Bob was put in a straitjacket.
Sideshow Bob was briefly seen escaping from prison and visited Krusty the Clown for the week. Bart and Lisa traced Sideshow Bob to a cabin believing that he has kidnapped Homer Simpson Homer went missing at Marge's third wedding and thought Sideshow Bob was the culprit due to a clue, a key-chain with the letters "SB" on it, being left in the groom's room.
Krusty also explains that Sideshow Bob couldn't have kidnapped Homer Simpson because Bob was with Krusty the whole day. When Lisa questions him about the key chain, he explains that, although it's nice that they thought of him, the initials don't just pertain to him, and gives a list of people whom "SB" could refer to, including Selma Bouvier , the actual culprit.
Later, the town of Springfield releases all minor offenders from the Springfield prison as a result of budget cuts.
Sideshow Bob performs plastic surgery on his new cellmate, Walt Warren, one such offender, switching their faces which he did in order to be released from prison early, as Walt, so he can kill Bart. He then buys the house next to the Simpsons, planning to pose as their friendly neighbor while waiting for the chance to kill Bart. However, while this disguise does fool the rest of the Simpsons, Bart easily sees through it, immediately recognizing Bob's distinctive voice.
Bob then planned to take Bart over to the Five Corners so he could kill Bart in one state while standing in another state, so that it would be legal for him to kill Bart.
However, the real Walt manages to foil his plan and the police from all five states trap him. While still serving out his sentence at Springfield Penitentiary, Sideshow Bob was recruited as a human test subject by Monsarno Corporation.
His original purpose was to ensure that the experiments wouldn't be too painful for the test monkeys.

One day, the Simpson family visits the lab to learn more about genetically modified organisms and are shocked to find Sideshow Bob working there.
