Stop the Planet of the Apes

“Can I play the piano anymore?” – Troy McClure as George Taylor
“Of course you can!” – Dr. Zaius
“Well I couldn’t before!” – Troy McClure as George Taylor

We got an e-mail the other day from reader R H who is considering getting a Troy McClure tattoo.  The current plan is to get Troy in “Stop the Planet of the Apes, I Want to Get Off!” as you can see at right.  The e-mail wanted to know if we had any better ideas for a good Troy McClure image.  Obviously, Troy was in some memorable costumes over the years, but I couldn’t think of anything better than the Charlton Heston spacesuit.  (Bonus points for all of Hartman’s Heston impersonations over the years.) 

So, anyone got any ideas?  I don’t think you can add images in the comments, but if anyone has one, e-mail it to us and I’ll add it to this post.  Oh, and we have been promised pictures once the ink goes on.

    Sweet.

    I’m going to consult with my guy in the next week or two. Hopefully this’ll be on me within a month or so. It’s going on the back of my left calf if anyone was curious…

    What about Troy squeezing an orange against his face when he was shilling the Juice Loosener in “Marge in Chains”?

    D.N.: That’s a hilarious scene but I have to throw my vote in for Troy in the spacesuit. It truly was his finest moment and look at that pose! Pure triumphant McClure. I’ve always loved that picture.
