Although The Simpsons is itself a show populated by fictional characters (see: List of characters from The Simpsons), there are also several characters within the show's universe who are fictional to the Simpsonscharacters themselves (see also: Show-within-a-show).
These include characters from TV and movies, as well as characters who appear on Halloween Treehouse of Horror episodes, which do not follow the show's continuity.
The character's name may be a reference to Ed McBain, the pseudonym under which Evan Hunter wrote his famous 87th Precinct crime novels.
Characters are only listed once, normally under the first applicable subsection in the list; very minor characters are listed with a more regular character they are associated with.
Though characters from Halloween episodes are included, these episodes do not form part of the show's continuity; thus characters only featured in one of these episodes do not inhabit the Springfield of the other shows.
In one issue of the Simpsons comic book it is mentioned The Simpson and Delroy families are related, making Homer and Cletus (and their respective children) cousins--though this may or may not be series canon.
