Simpsons Character Rumors: Which Simpsons Main Character Is Rumored To Be Killed In The Show? Not Edna Krabappel; Cartoon Show Pays Tribute To The Teacher

The Simpsons paid tribute to Marcia Wallace, who voiced Edna Krabappel in the cartoon series during last Sunday’s back-to-back episode of the Simpsons. The actress passed away last October 26 due to complications from pneumonia.

In the latest episode ironically entitled “Four Regrettings and a Funeral," Bart wrote on the chalkboard gag "We'll Really Miss You Mrs. K." in the intro of the show.

After that, “The Ned-liest Catch” episode was aired. It was an episode wherein Edna started dating Homer’s neighbor Ned Flanders. This was to remember the voice actor through her character.

Executive producer of the show Al Jean expressed his sympathy for the loss of their talent.

"I was tremendously saddened to learn this morning of the passing of the brilliant and gracious Marcia Wallace. She was beloved by all at The Simpsons and we intend to retire her irreplaceable character."

Meanwhile, earlier last month before the unexpected loss of Wallace, Jean announced that they would be killing one main character on the show.

"I'll give you a clue that the actor playing the character won an Emmy for playing that character, but I won't say who it is," he said in a Canada’s Sun News.

The series has already collected over 27 Emmys which dated back since 1989 including Outstanding Voice-Over Performance awards for actors Nancy Cartwright, Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Jackie Mason, Yeardley Smith, Marcia Wallace and Hank Azaria, among others.

Edna Krabappel on the other hand was not supposed to be the one leaving. They stressed that Marcia already pre-recorded hundreds of recordings that are already ready for many episodes to come.

But who can it be?

“Everyone came back for Chip’s funeral,” Kent Brockman said. Who could be this Chip character? If you would do a little Google search for the name Chip it is most likely connected to the name Charles.

Who’s a Charles in the show? Charles Montgomery Burnes.

A Chip Davis who was said to be "Springfield’s most beloved character that you never saw” reportedly died in the latest episode.

Can this be a premonition?

 Another rumor is from a friend of creator Sam Simon. Actress Jennifer Tilly who was said to be poker buddies with Simon told TMZ that it might be Apu.

Who would it be? We would never know. We just have to find out ourselves.
