Trivia / The Simpsons S2 E12 "The Way We Was"

Go To

  • First Appearance: Of Raphael (aka Wiseguy), Artie Ziff, Rainier Wolfcastle (as the fictional action hero McBain), Principal Dondelinger, and Marge’s father Clancy Bouvier.
  • Throw It In!: Artie's departing line to Marge after he drops her off was supposed to be "Good night. I'm Artie Ziff!", but short on time, the editors shortened it to just "Good night?".
  • Write Who You Know: Artie's appearance and body language is based on a man David Silverman went to high school with named Mark Eisenberg. Silverman said that when he directed the episode, he went through his high school yearbook for character ideas and designs, because Silverman went to high school in the period that the episode is parodying.
