When Bart and Lisa cleaned out the garage, they discovered a bunch of old home movies on videotape. One of the tapes they found had an episode of Perfect Strangers on it, as well as a commercial that Bart had appeared in as a baby. When Bart learned that his child-star commercials had made plenty of money but Homer had squandered it all, the discovery caused a major rift in the family as Bart successfully sued to become an emancipated minor.[1]

Kang and Kodos once appeared in a fictional sitcom, titled Keepin' It Kodos, which was a parody of Perfect Strangers. Kang and Kodos served the Simpsons as dinner for their boss, but Bart survived and the aliens adopted him. The Perfect Strangers theme song, "Nothing's Gonna Stop Me Now", then played over a montage of freeze-frame scenes showing Bart with the aliens.[2]
Behind the Laughter
During "Treehouse of Horror XV", the Perfect Strangers theme song was played during the opening sequence and over the opening credits, then again over the episode's closing credits.
