A slew of guest stars have lent their voices to The Simpsons during the show’s 20-season run, and although some guests simply play themselves, the most memorable one-off characters often have a guest voice behind them. In honor of last week’s news that the show has been renewed for two more seasons, let’s find out if you know who voiced some of these gems.

“You wouldn’t believe the celebrities who did cameos! Dustin Hoffman, Michael Jackson… Of course, they didn’t use their real names, but you could tell it was them.” – Lisa
Proud to say that I got all of them but one…Chester J. Lampwick.
And there are tons of guest stars/famous characters that weren’t mentioned in this quiz, like Lurleen and Larry Burns.

I got 100% – which surprised me, as I stopped watching “The Simpsons” several seasons ago. All these were from earlier seasons — now, the guest stars usually just play themselves.

BOOOO! Missed Homer’s mom! I was surprised since I haven’t seen an episode of the Simpsons in years. Many of them kind of look like the person who voiced them even if you’re taking a guess.

Grrr! I missed Jessica Lovejoy! I should have stuck with my first choice.
