Moe dies by suicide, but there is always another to replace him

On the ever-popular r/FanTheories on Reddit, fans gathered to discuss a potentially macabre theory regarding the previously mentioned tavern owner Moe. The theory is that he is actually successful in his suicide attempts, but there is always another Moe to take his place. This is based on the above picture, where you can see two different Moes -– one is addressing the crowd, while the other is off to the left.

Redditor u/jax9999 said of the theory, "Moe isn't a person, Moe is a role, like Santa Clause [sic]. When a person's life reaches a certain level of suckiness, he turns into a Moe. There can be multiple Moes at once, but that never lasts long because they frequently commit suicide." This caused several users to make puns regarding Moe's name like "Moe Moes, Moe problems," but u/leftshoe18 pointed out that the double Moes was actually listed as an animation mistake for the episode in question, "White Christmas Blues." Either way, considering the wide berth "The Simpsons" have carved out over its long tenure, it wouldn't be a far cry to have clones, an inherited persona, or a "The Prestige"-like plot involving Moe Szyslak.
