Remembering Troy McClure
Here’s to Troy McClure, the washed-up actor character on the Simpson’s. Voiced by the late, great Phil Hartman, he only ever appeared doing embarrassing low-level work like manipulative infomercials or questionable educational films. To capture some of his past glory, he always introduced himself by referencing his past work. Just another small bit of comic genius from the longest running TV show in history.
