Mr. Burns
Male honorific prefix
Mr.
Burns is a character from the animated television series *The Simpsons*—the ancient, skeletal owner of Springfield's nuclear power plant.
His full name is Charles Montgomery Burns.
The character has become shorthand for cartoonish villainy and extreme wealth: He's got real Mr. Burns energy, hoarding money while his employees suffer.
His catchphrase "Excellent," delivered while steepling his fingers, is widely imitated.
