~ Superintendent Chalmers' catchphrase |
Superintendent Garabaldi "Gary" Chalmers is a major character in the animated television series The Simpsons.
He is the superintendent of Springfield's school district.
He is voiced by Hank Azaria.
Overview[]
Gary is Principal Skinner's superior on the Board of Education, and thusly the man who has to show up at Springfield Elementary to investigate the goings-on there. From his first scene in "Whacking Day" he greets Skinner in a weary voice and tries to get him to take the hint that he doesn't like toadying, which Skinner ignores. It is made apparent this is just the same as many visits beforehand. In "Bart Stops to Smell the Roosevelts", he becomes a teacher so he can make Bart excited about learning.
Personality[]
Chalmers is above the zaniness of the other characters and is a (relatively) normal guy, aside from his pathological habit of bellowing any word. Likewise, he's also the only person who bothered (and succeeded) to teach Bart anything.
