How often have you thought about Jacques, the four-fingered Lothario who tried to steal Marge’s heart?
The French seducer was a memorable character in the season one episode “Life on the Fast Lane” and he’s just made his comeback – 33 years since he last had a line on the long-running show.
Jacques was one the many one-off characters who have tried to detour either Homer or Marge away from their marriage vows, but the couple always found their way back to one another, spurning the advances of an interloper.
In the 1990 episode, Jacques was a bowling instructor who became besotted with Marge, who had taken up the sport to spite Homer after his selfish choice to gift her a bowling bowl (with his name engraved on it) on her birthday.
Resentful at her loutish husband, Marge is tempted by the attentions of someone new – but ultimately chooses Homer.
