I would say that he has a rather out there way of thinking, or simply he is crazy, though perhaps he is sociopathic. Moving from personality the most obvious thing he is is a murderer, and a guilty one at that. Though he does not seem to understand he is feeling guilty, that is what causes him to hear the beating of the heart, the loud noise in his ears. In the end it's hard to tell whether he really felt the guilt or simply thought that the police had found him out.

Though if he had had the sense to remain calm as they spoke, he would have never been found. The irony really is how he argues in being crazy, yet in the end, this simply makes him sound even more insane.

How are these similar The Telltale Head as the eighth episode of The Simpsons' first season and the short story The Tell-Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe?

Other than the title, The Telltale Head being a play on The Telltale Heart the similarities lie in The Telltale Heart having the narrator, who is presumably the murderer, being haunted by the sound of the victim's beating heart. Bart, who is also the narrator of The Telltale Head briefly, is haunted by the voice of Jebidiah Springfield.
