“Krusty the Clown, you're under arrest for armed robbery. You have the right to remain silent, anything you say may be blah-blah-blah, blah-blah-blah-blah.”
―Clancy Wiggum

Trivia[]
Sideshow Bob makes his first appearance as a major character in this episode. However, his official first appearance was in the background of a scene in the season one episode The Telltale Head. Bob's design was revamped, with his original Afro being turned into his now-famous "palm tree" style. James Earl Jones was originally cast as Bob, but the producers chose to try Kelsey Grammer. Also making their first appearances in this episode are Kent Brockman and Scott Christian. This is the only episode of Season 1 where the main character of the episode isn't one of the Simpsons family member(s).
