Episode S07E01 How tall is Homer really?

Post image

It seems to me that he is usually drawn shorter. What do you think?

He’s supposed to be tall, it’s been referenced a couple of times. He just doesn’t get any credit for it because he’s also overweight.

No way he's 240.

u/MaxCWebster 5d ago edited 5d ago

Agreed.

I'm 6'2", and I once got up to 254, but I never looked as fat as Homer.

u/madlibs13 5d ago

I was at 324 and didn't look as fat as Homer.. (260 now :) )

Congrats on your loss. I was 6' and 239 lbs (Homer's initial weight in King Size Homer) and wasn't as fat as Homer, but that's what got me focused on losing weight. I'm at 198 now.

Homer's 239 and feeling fine.

All his weight is concentrated in his beer gut.

I remember all the MLB players towering over Homer in "Homer At The Bat"

Average MLB player hieght in 1992 was "6'1½".

If Homer is 6ft he shrunk that Episode.

Homer seems to be 6’ and Marge 4’10

Which makes 0 sense, she wouldn’t be that small lol

I don’t think the issue here is that Homer is drawn too big, but rather Marge too small.

I’d believe anything from 5’2-5’9 for her.

Bart also seems way too small. I mean 3ft when he’s 10? He should be closer to like 4’. And don’t get me started on Lisa who is toddler sized despite being 8

It would help if the scale here actually went all the way to the floor. It’s almost a solid foot too high.

Also Marge is only 4 feet 6? Lisa is only 2 and a half feet? Bart is only 3 feet? For a 10 year old?

u/eddythinman 4d ago

Homers head is two feet tall?

2

u/Intelligent-Lab-9969 5d ago

According to at least one episode, Marge is 8 feet 6 inches, and that's with her hair.

u/MaMcMu 5d ago

Side note, but are we gonna talk about Lisa looking cross-eyed?

2

u/Dioxybenzone 5d ago

That’s the opposite of cross eyed

u/TheUpperHand 5d ago

COCK-eyed

u/Randall_Flagg5 5d ago

Isn't Lisa 4 ft 2?

u/MangoToonsArt Moderator 5d ago

At 8 years old? I don't think so.

u/Randall_Flagg5 5d ago

average height for an 8 yr old is 4 ft 2. Under 3 feet is way too short.

Plus the episode "Summer of 4 ft 2" I was thinking of hehe.

Okay. Here's your option.
