Blinky is a three-eyed mutant fish from The Simpsons. He resides in the waters of Springfield, and is implied to have been created as a result of toxic waste from Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. Blinky and members of his orange fish species are usually seen in cameos depicting the result of some ecological or environmental catastrophe, usually at the hands of Mr. Burns.
Blinky makes a quick cameo appearance in "Space Pilot 3000". As Fry is using the Tube Transport System for the first time, he goes underwater after passing the Statue of Liberty and speeds by Blinky. Blinky is seen slowly drifting by and blinks all three eyes.
