It was, it really explained why he acts the way he is. He acts tough, so no one suspects how vulnerable he feels on the inside. He's just a kid who needs someone to make him feel loved and wanted, because he doesn't get that at home.
@@annwilmot6858 it could be Zachary Vaughn from S21 E02. We do know he hates children because they say alcohol makes you confess your deepest feelings, but he could find redemption in at least giving some love to Nelson, which would not easily reform him or erase his bad behaviour, but make Nelson dessire to open more to the world around him
Until his father showed up, I thought Nelson might be Barney's son. There's one episode where they're standing side-by-side and you can see the resemblance. Maybe it was another scrapped idea they had early on, like how Krusty was going to secretly be Homer.
I also prefer Lisa and Nelson as a couple. He is definetly a much better choice than Milhouse. Nelson and Lisa seem so different. But perhaps this is why they complement each other so well.
Fat, rude, obnoxious, aggressive and was raised by a single parent. Perhaps there is some Freudian behaviour going on with Lisa, and she’s only attracted to Nelson because she sees Homer inside him?
@@Torireactsofficial005 that has a lot to do with it. it makes total sense - nelson is somewhat like homer and lisa is probably attracted to nelson because of that besides “opposites attract” is just vague and is another form of what “Fly Away” said.
Nelson: Did you find any gold? Bart: Even better, the prospectors left naughty French postcards. Nelson: Bart, this is fool's porn, I'll take it off your hands🤣
I have a theory as why, even though Nelson and Lisa are a great couple, they dont stay together as adults. Nelson's mom. She doesn't like people smarter than her and is paranoid that people think they are better than her, and I can definately see Lisa accidentally getting on her nerves, which would lead to Lisa resenting her since his mother would make rude or snide comments about Lisa (and snub Lisa) to try to feel better. I think they alone are a great couple, but I think her potential mother-in-law would force an "either her or me" situation leading to a breakup since Nelson would never stop supporting or loving his mom, and Lisa would probably feel like his mom was taking advantage of that kindness while being disrespectful to both her son and Lisa. I can see Lisa being fine being a step-mom to Nelson's previous kids, and being ok with not changing everything about him, but his mother I cant see someone like Lisa ever truly accepting because Nelson's mother never truly changes, and definately wouldn't show a softer side to Lisa (from what we can see with her interactions towards other women). It would not be a breakup through a fight, more a sad conversation between the two, which would explain why they still talk to each other later on. And she would go back to Millhouse because he is someone she can completely boss around, for better or worse. If she told Millhouse to cut his parents out of their lives, he would.
This theory does make sense! Kind of reminds me of the Edna-Skinner relationship, which ended for multiple reasons, but Skinner's mother, Agnes, was clearly part of why their relationship didn't work.
Nelson and Lisa better be real end game for this show. I've been watching since day one and I was 8. I have been rooting for them forever. Even before her date with density. And all the future stuff is what's possible at that time in their life. That's why it's always different. The show is written by Harvard graduates. So they are definitely using the thought of the future is never certain. The flash forward episodes are never set in stone. Although I do think we may be coming to the end where they do indeed show us everyone's endings for real soon. But I hope.im wrong and we get to 40!
I don’t think we’ll make 40 seasons since the girl that voices jimbo and milhouse retired recently. Could be wrong though, I guess it’s an excuse to further the nelson episodes since milhouse is now gone.
Y'all know. I like this character. Not for how rude and snappy he is, but how he is so kind to Lisa and sometimes he changes his mind about being rude.
Yes! I love the little cute one off moments in episodes where they will just say hi to each-other, or Nelson will hold a door open for her. So wholesome.
Eddie Muntz's abandonment of Nelson is widely to believed to be a reference to Donald King the father to famed author Stephen King who left him and his brother when they where tots
Ya know, it must be harder doing the timelines for the children characters because you only really have the future, with the adults you can talk about the episode that take place in the past and future but you can only really do the ones that take place in the future for the kids, they dont have a lot of episode in the past where the kids can show up.
I remember when I was young I used to watch the Simpson’s all the time however as I got older I watched it less and less. But since I saw this great channel I started to watch the Simpson’s more and more and my favourite episodes were mainly seasons 1/2/3 to 8. But I still love other episodes and some of my best memories was being 10 and driving home and watching the best Simpson’s episodes for hours. Thank you the Simpson’s theory I love your channel so much and if it wasn’t for your great channel I wouldn’t of watched the Simpson’s again as much.
Hey Samuel, that's so awesome! Glad you're enjoying the show again, there are a few great episodes in the later seasons, but it is a lot to watch! I'm partial to the early seasons too, season 6 is one of my faves 👊
@@TheSimpsonsTheory a judge cannot preside over a case where a defendant is related to the judge due to bias my mum successfully caught a shoplifter once as a store detective and the barrister for the prosecution was her cousin so my mum could not give evidence otherwise the trial would have been declared a mistrial therefore null and void
It's so funny I've watched the episode where Nelson says he has a dead sister so many times, but I never actually clocked on to what he said until it was mentioned here. Where's that backstory?!
Nelson "Mandela".. Muntz That's an aspiration, right there.. I think that he wants to be a better man, maybe a general, or admiral, if given a chance. A senator, a philosopher.. There are many paths, for someone whom is willing to better themself.
In the episode “The Miseducation of Lisa Simpson” at the end they showed Lisa wearing Nelson vest while she was giving out drinks to the robot in the future
@@TheSimpsonsTheory will it include Colin? Because I feel it’s her best relationship. Could you skip the cowpoke kid though, it’s just too heartbreaking for me to even think about.
I stopped watching Simpsons once the removed Apu my favorite character mainly because of a Indian owned a store very similar and sounded just like that, thought it was very true to character. Your time-line almost makes me want to watch it again, I never really gave it much thought and been surprised by learning about Nelson and others.
I don't really get why they chose Milhouse than Nelson to be the husband of Lisa because Nelson has grown so much during season 1 and it shows through your video how much he appreciates Lisa for who she is and has been a huge part of his life in later seasons. I love your videos! :)
I'd like to think that Nelson went to Lisa to ask for her help with a dilemma he has, something like: N: lisa, I need help, I love you and love being with you but I can't have four children have the same childhood I had, Sherri and Terri don't deserve raising two kids each alone. L: I understand, I love that you want to fix the cycle of neglect, raise those kids well, for me.
Nelson is actually the drunk guy in Moe's bar the theory is the drunk guy went to the scientist to build a time machine to go back in time and fix his life but he went into Moe's bar and had drink then he couldn't stop so he become alcoholic and forgot about who he was and what his main reason to go back in
Might be looking too far into the details of a comedy show but is there a reason why Nelson wasn't raised by his grandfather? Seems like it'd be something the mother would do to get rid of him.
Nelson had a crazy amount of character development. His home movie was one of the saddest things I've seen
very sad indeed, on par with barneys movie imho..
nice name btw 😁
It was, it really explained why he acts the way he is. He acts tough, so no one suspects how vulnerable he feels on the inside. He's just a kid who needs someone to make him feel loved and wanted, because he doesn't get that at home.
It always makes me emotional when I watch his movie and he puts the book in his passed out mother's hands and pretends she's reading it to him

Nelson and Lisa is the one that I ship. I wish the writers could show more of them.
Nothing a round of waterballons couldn't handle...🤔
Yeah. Me too.
Hi

Nelson and Lisa seem so different. But perhaps this is why they complement each other so well.
Agree
Fat, rude, obnoxious, aggressive and was raised by a single parent. Perhaps there is some Freudian behaviour going on with Lisa, and she’s only attracted to Nelson because she sees Homer inside him?
@@flyaway8483 what does wait have to do with anything and have you heard of opposites attract
Nobody likes Milhouse
@@Torireactsofficial005 that has a lot to do with it. it makes total sense - nelson is somewhat like homer and lisa is probably attracted to nelson because of that besides “opposites attract” is just vague and is another form of what “Fly Away” said.
i feel like nelson was reverse flanderized. Started with little depth but developed into a well rounded character
I agree, i Love His Character growth so much.
I love Nelson growth as an character he's got an really good backstory
Kombinationen
Me too
Haha
What episode does Nelson say: God, if you don’t bring my Lisa back safe? That’s the sweetest thing EVER!!! ❤❤❤
I really like the growth and that we saw his backstory and vulnerable side, instead of just making him a onedimentional bully.
Hearing him say “my Lisa” just melted my heart 🥹
"That's it! Back to Winnipeg!" By far my favorite line in an episode
Nelson: Did you find any gold?
Bart: Even better, the prospectors left naughty French postcards.
Nelson: Bart, this is fool's porn, I'll take it off your hands🤣
I forget which episode this is but it's one of my favorite Nelson moments
Bon,cest do bon, ci bon, ci bon.
And remorse.
I have a theory as why, even though Nelson and Lisa are a great couple, they dont stay together as adults. Nelson's mom.

This actually makes a lot of sense.

Ooh cool a bible verse
It's not cool when your overbearing mother ruins your potential marriage with the girl of your dreams...
Nelson is so protective of Lisa Simpson that he's willing to become like Trevor Phillips from Grand Theft Auto V.😂
One of my favorite Nelson moments is when he becomes friend with Bart and gives him one of his vests.
Honestly it's hard not to feel bad for nelson
As much as I want Nelson and Lisa to be together in the future the idea that he's the one that got away is too funny.
I like Nelson as the classic bully character archetype, and when he shows his emotions. Also, his iconic laugh.

From a shallow bully character to being a indepth lonely child dealt with his feelings of abandonment issues

That's interesting, never knew that
Eagerly awaiting the release of Nelson's first book.

Yeah they can be really challenging, but I find that theres lots to talk about when it comes to their futures though
This is actually becoming my favourite parts of the video: trying to make sense of 'future' related bits and episodes!
Nelson has the funniest Catch-phrase ever: Ha! Ha!
Yay! Nelson’s timeline is genuinely so interesting, glad you did this one!! :))
Yay, thank you!
I love Nelson one of my favourite characters also I’m proud of you honey keep up the great work on both channels ❤️❤️
I love Nelson he's probably one of the funniest bullies ever!
Anyone remember that episode when Lisa meets a jazz obsessed boy and Nelson got jealous and did everything to win Lisa back that was pretty cute
Did you find that episode? Asking for a friend
His name was thelonius if that helps
Episode that thelonius is in is called Trilogy of Error.
You have reached the esteemed “being sponsored by Hello Fresh” level of youtube success! Well done 👍
Thanks so much! I've actually been using it myself for the past year 🙂

Bullies are always interesting because most of them don't even realize they were bullies until they are well into adulthood.
Only person who thinks bullies are interesting were either never bullied or never cared
That was a damn smooth segway from Nelson to Hello Fresh
its a missed opportunity in the show not to have Judge Muntz preside over courtroom cases
Agreed! Especially over a trial where Nelson is in trouble. They kind of forgot about him

Probably as ignorant as the kid version
Doesn’t look good from a legal perspective
Nelson one of the most interesting and sad kids in cartoons thankyou for this lol
Nelson is that one character you hate but also kinda love. Great video
These videos are of exceptional quality! 👏
I've been waiting for this for who knows how long!
This is why nelson is one of my favorites plus I'll always say it Lisa and nelson are a much better relationship than her and Milhouse
if i had the chance, i would go to his birthday party to make him happy
"Shut up ... Commander." I can't believe there's another version of "I'll get you for this .... My Liege." Haw-Haw!
Yesss finally, been waiting a while for this one
Wow Nelson has a crazy story who knew his life would be so impactful
He really has changed i mean i was confused and happy when he gave bart's money back
I love Nelsons character, mostly because he reminds me of a real life classmate, and I love that they portrayed him in such a good light.
As a kid, i really hated Nelson but now, i find him a pretty interesting character, not just a stereotype bully
I still dislike him
i have been looking forward to this one this was really good
Nelsons Father first appeared in Season 4's Brother from the Same planet. You even used clips from that episode when calling it Season 9's Bart Star.
It's so funny I've watched the episode where Nelson says he has a dead sister so many times, but I never actually clocked on to what he said until it was mentioned here. Where's that backstory?!
I love all of these time lines
And I like that you did a face reveal in this one!
Early for once
Saw notification and got excited 😆
Nelson has so much more depth than just the school bully 👍🏻
Thanks for clicking so early Catherine
Tbh, Nelson was the best partner for Lisa except for the unnamed girlfriends she has had
I can’t help but wonder what would’ve been different if he was more of a Buford from Phineas and Ferb
This gave me a new perspective on Nelson. Thanks.
Thank you. I'm currently working on a new Nelson video too about his development in the show. Stay tuned 🙂
Nelson is literally the only kid in that show to have their voice drop
Nelson "Mandela".. Muntz
That's an aspiration, right there..
I think that he wants to be a better man, maybe a general, or admiral, if given a chance.
A senator, a philosopher.. There are many paths, for someone whom is willing to better themself.
I Remember the Episode Bart the General on VHS as a kid!
He actually seem to have the most interesting life after the series
14:14 I love his little heart lol
These videos are great!
Your Simpson's style avatar is amazing 😂
Can’t wait Lydia thanks for the video!
awesome 👏 good job keep up the great work
Thanks Oli
Hey lydia it's nice to see nelson's life story and future thanks for giving me a smile also I have one last thing to say
Haw! Haw!
When I was little I used to think Snake was Nelson’s dad
This was fantastic. Great production very engaging. Thank you.
YES YES YES ANOTHER TIMELINE!! btw Lydia it's me LegendBotYT
Nelson is a very interesting character. Complex, behind the bully facade.
I'm new here and have binging but I have to say the simpsons did help Nelson a lot throughout his life 🤗
Nelson character development is not talked about enough
Gotta say that middle picture of Nelson will forever be how I imagine him as an adult
In the episode “The Miseducation of Lisa Simpson” at the end they showed Lisa wearing Nelson vest while she was giving out drinks to the robot in the future
I'm making a video on Lisa and Nelson now, I'll check out that episode 🙂
@@TheSimpsonsTheory will it be for or against the relationship? Or will it just be about the relationship in general?
@@sakurashy8492 it will be about her best and worst relationships 🙂

Good video. Nelson and Lisa would be good together. Don't like his bullying but he's a good character. Plus is iconic laugh.

I did not expect You to make this video but it is very good
Ty that was nicely done and nicely narrated 😉😊
Do The Complete Timeline of Frank Grimes.
It's good that Nelson really developed as a character. If he had just been a bully, I don't think I would like him very much.
There’s nothing heave done with him except paying Bart back that makes me like him
Doesn’t make up for all the years of abuse though
Nelson - HA HA! This video is awesome and you are awesome :). First time viewer :)
Welcome to the channel Nathan 😄
@@TheSimpsonsTheory thank you 😊
Honestly Nelson should’ve wound up with Lisa, not Lisa getting with Milhouse
2:33 end of ad
"hark to the tail of nelson and the boy he loves to dear! They'll remain the best of friends for years and years and years!"
I wish Nelson x Lisa just get married already
I doubt it Lisa will definitely friend zone him
Such a great character man I love nelson
Great the Simpson theory video basically great 👍 Lydia
great video
I think they sell t-shirts that say “back to Winnipeg” in the back to the future font 😂. Saw some great memes with it too 😁
Imagine if Nelson and Milhouse swapped places🤔
