It was groundbreaking for showing both white and Afro-American children playing together. The series ended in 1944, but old episodes were repeated on television from the 1950s on under the new title "The Little Rascals".

The Little Rascals was an American film series.

History

In the audio commentary to the episode Homer's Odyssey writers Wallace Wolodarsky and Jay Kogen revealed that Mrs. Krabappel's name was a reference to Mrs. Crabtree from the "Little Rascals" series.

When Leonard Nimoy asked Joe Quimby if he know who he was, Quimby asked him if he was one of the Little Rascals[1]

Moe played the part of "Smelly", a tough kid, on The Little Rascals until he was fired for killing Alfalfa (or rather, an orphan portraying as him) in a fit of rage for stealing his bit.[2]

When Marge is awoken by Homer she reassures him: "Homie, it's 4:30 in the morning. Little Rascals isn't until 6." Homer replies: "I know, I'm taping it." [3]

The scene where the kids take the different electronics through the fence parodies scenes from "The Little Rascals", including Milhouse dressed as Alfalfa and a dog that looks like Pete the Pup. The music sounds similar too.[4]
