How about adding a bit about who the recurring characters are based on.

Bart - Dennis the menace.

Frink - Jerry Lewis in Nutty Professor(the original one)

Chief Wiggum - Edward G Robinson.

Dr Hibbert - Bill Cosby

Milhouse - Woody Allen(??)

There are probably some others but I can't think of them now.

good point, but i've got one "nit-picking detail." Dr. Hibbert wasn't originally based on Cosby, but the similarities (sweaters) began when the show was moved to the thursday time-slot opposite the Cosby Show, as a poke at their "competition."
