History
Homer appeared on the show after he temporarily achieved celebrity status by bowling a 300 game, and managed to get into a fight with fellow celebrity guest Ron Howard[1].
The show was once filmed on location at Springfield Harbor, but was interrupted when a tsunami struck. Upper-row guest Barry White invited everyone to take shelter in his square. Everyone took him up on the offer except for bottom-row celebrity Charlie, who tartly said he'd been in that square for nearly thirty seasons and he wasn't leaving. Moments later, the wave struck and Charlie was washed away, prompting Homer (who was watching the show on TV) to say "He's dead now!"[2]

Behind the laughter
- Springfield Squares is a parody of Hollywood Squares.
- The show's taping being interrupted by a tsunami (in "Krusty Gets Kancelled") is a reference to a real-life incident in 1971 where a taping of Hollywood Squares was interrupted by an earthquake.
