In The Simpsons, Sherri and Terri Fisk (voiced by Russi Taylor) are two rather sickly looking twins with purple hair. They are in the same class with Bart at the Springfield Elementary School. In one episode it is revealed that their father is Homer's supervisor at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. He fires Homer for causing an accident while waving to Bart from a cart during a school tour of the plant. Homer, however, had the last laugh when he was promoted above the twins' father to safety inspector. Their mother is shown in "Bart Sells His Soul" and looks very identical to them. Sherri is the first-born twin and Terri is the second-born twin. They share their birthday with Rod Flanders.

The girls themselves dress alike, reinforcing their "twin-ness". They are quite stuck up, and never miss an opportunity to berate Bart. However, early on in the series, they had different personalities entirely, and at one point they both kissed Bart in order to get him in trouble on the school bus.

Bart appears to have a crush on one of them, as admitted in Hungry Hungry Homer. One of them referred to Bart as an ugly, smelly dork, but was convinced by Homer to go on a date with Bart after he told her that she and Bart can both do better. One of the twins stated that her sister had a crush on Bart in Bart Star.

The two can also be seen as friends of Lisa and at other times rivals. In Sleeping with the Enemy, the duo taunt Lisa over her big butt; in Bart of Darkness, they tell Lisa that "the same day ^* got a pool was the day they realized they like her."

In Simpson Tide, when Homer briefly commanded a nuclear submarine into Russian waters, Principal Skinner prepared for nuclear war by selecting a small group of the best, brightest and most promising students to accompany him to a shelter. He selected Sherri, but not Terri.

In the episode "Future-Drama" set "eight years in the future," it is revealed that Nelson Muntz simultaneously dated and impregnated both of the twins, who bore him four children (two sets of twins, naturally) shortly before Nelson's high school graduation. He abandoned them during Bart's graduation party.

They look strikingly similar to the ghost twins Danny sees in Stanley Kubrick's adaptation, The Shining, of Stephen King's novel of the same name. Ironically in a deleted scene of the parody of the Shining called The Shinning they are ghost twins seen by Bart.

They are among the few original characters at this point that have not had an episode exploring their personalities and lives in detail.
