JASPER: SEASON 1

Episodes:

Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire - No appearance

Bart the Genius - No appearance

Homer's Odyssey - In what is believed to be his first appearance in a Simpsons episode, Jasper is visible in the town council meeting. When Wiggum passes around a photograph of suspected vandal "El Bardo," Jasper peers at the photo over Homer's shoulder and whispers his very first line.

Dialogue:

JASPER: "Oooh... tough customer!

Special Note: Jasper's voice in this episode is very different from the Jasper we have come to know, and it sounds more similar to Grampa Simpson.

There's No Disgrace Like Home - No appearance

Bart the General - When Bart visits Grampa at the Retirement Castle, he tells the receptionist that he is "here to see Grampa." Instantly, a dozen seniors (including Jasper) stick their heads out of their room to see if they are the chosen one. As they retreat back to their cubicles, we hear Jasper's trademark grumble for the first time in the series. This is immediately followed by Jasper's first full scene on The Simpsons, and the first time we see him interact with Grampa. Just as Grampa explaining to Bart the need to stand up to bullies, Jasper walks in and demands Grampa's newspaper, because he wants to do the crossword puzzle. The two fight over the paper and play tug-of-war with it until Grampa finally relents, and Jasper walks away, chuckling. Jasper's voice is still in the developmental stages here but bears a clear resemblance to the ultra-bass rumble it would eventually become.

Dialogue:

JASPER: "Simpson! Gimme that newspaper!"
