and in the credits they listed prof stephen hawking as a "voice actor".
how the heck does a guy with no ability to speak get billed as a voice actor?

ToyotaTat · 01-03-2007, 02:15 PM

was it one of the episodes w/ stephen hawking? cuz tehy could've recorded his comp. !!
just the same, its the Simpsons and easily is just a joke.

CleanNeon98 · 01-03-2007, 02:20 PM

is this the episode where he punches homer with the boxing glove built into his wheelchair?

Dave · 01-03-2007, 02:22 PM

nah it was the one with ray romano as a roofer

I dont know about anyone else, but i cant even watch the simpsons anymore. Ever since Family Guy, i just cant find myself laughing at the simpsons.

Well, there could be more than one Stephen Hawking in the world.

tjf · 01-03-2007, 02:28 PM

hahaha the one where he comes in at the end and explains about black holes or something, probaly just becasue they used the computer voice thing he has

StealthTC · 01-03-2007, 04:42 PM

but my favorite line on the simpsons

"Homer, if you don't come to work tomorrow, don't bother coming in on Monday!"
"WOO HOO 4 DAY WEEKEND!!!!"

he indeed plays himself.

yeah, it's at the end where he give an explanation to why no one saw Ray. I say they probably just sent in a recording of his computer.
