** Stu only makes the comment to his friend where the kids can't hear him. Daniel and Miranda both take shots at each other in front of their kids (something Mrs. Doubtfire subtly calls Miranda out on) but Stu at least tries to keep his opinion away from them. It also shows that Stu understands that it's a difficult time for the kids and he's trying to be as patient as possible with them, not forcing them to accept him as their stepfather or belittling their father to curry favor with them.

* After the tragic death of Creator/RobinWilliams in 2014, Creator/MaraWilson wrote [[http://marawilsonwritesstuff.com/remembering-robin/ this]] touching and empathetic essay on her blog in tribute to her ''Doubtfire'' co-star, in the end paraphrasing her most infamous line to great effect.

** While he's technically the romantic rival, Stu is also portrayed as a decent guy throughout. He's genuinely sympathetic to Miranda after the split from Daniel and adores the kids, especially Natalie, and speaks about wanting to settle down and have a family. He's also very nice to Mrs Doubtfire.

* It's not focused on, and is PlayedForLaughs besides, but Daniel's relationship with his brother Frank is shown to be very close and supportive. It's Frank he goes to for support when the divorce happens, he goes to Frank to create Mrs. Doubtfire both because of his skills and the fact that he would offer his support in "being a woman"(It's played for laughs, but said scene really looks like Frank is believing that he is coming out as transgender), and, despite having very different temperaments, they are also quite in sync with each other, as shown with the sudden impromptu "Matchmakers" moment. Also -- remembering that this is the '90's -- Daniel never gives Frank crap for being openly gay, apart from a very mild and rather lighthearted joke. It's even more heartwarming, when Frank tells Daniel: "you're my brother; I will never let you be embarrassed" and Frank and Jack's relationship is treated as perfectly normal by everyone and the film doesn't make a big deal out of it either, treating them like any other couple and showing them as having a happy and healthy relationship.
** Similarly, their unseen mother Evelyn, while implied to be overbearing, does love both her sons very much and has a close relationship with Frank and is completely accepting of Frank's sexuality and relationship, despite being in her mid-sixties at least, and she also likes and gets along with his partner Jack who likes Evelyn in return, even providing her with make-up.
** When Daniel's secret is found out by two of the kids, he refers to 'Uncle Frank and Aunt Jack' as the ones who helped him pull it off, meaning the kids actually know who they are and are implied to be on good terms with them. Considering how uptight Miranda is about so many things, it's nice to know she didn't push Daniel's 'unusual' family members away from their kids.

* Remember the horrendously boring professor talking about dinosaurs? The one that the boss wanted to get rid of, for dragging down the whole afternoon lineup? Well Daniel must have talked the boss into keeping him around, because at the end, he's seen on Mrs. Doubtfire's show as "Mr. Sprinkles," the friendly mailman! Every episode, he brings mail from the viewers.

** Daniel knows what it is like to be fired because you aren't what the higher-ups want, what with him being fired for not wanting to promote smoking, so he probably made sure that the guy had a part so he wouldn't have to go through what Daniel had to go through. And in all honesty in the brief moment you see him as "Mr. Sprinkles" he seems to be enjoying his new role.
