This was one of the funnest ones to draw in a while! It's so different from the usual style of bozos we cover, while still having a cartoony Simpson-y quality that I find hard to pin down.
The referee in the wrestling match can be heard counting in front of the blank-faced crowd, so he gets a number instead of shamefully relegated to "bonus" like so many before him. It's faint, but i...

I think I have mislabelled this guy, as we can actually see Kent's cameraman in an earlier shot. He has a surprisingly large entourage for his puff piece.

A very minor appearance by this guy, but he appears and gets a three word line ("Hey, listen man...") so he qualifies.

Another consistent character, at least until season 4. He first appears here, bleakly telling the pensioners which of their loved ones send well wishes.

A fun little joke in which Homer says that adding any "flash-in-the-pan" cartoon character would turn the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade into a "farce".

The final character from this episode - hasn't it gone quickly? This one was one of the few I could actually remember before my rewatch though, because of his quirky nature.
