Behind the Laughter
annual telethon.
- Dean's recording of "You're Nobody 'Til Somebody Loves You" is heard at the start of "The Blue and the Gray".
- Gino Crocetti, from the comic story Krusty's 11 is a parody of Dean Martin in many ways:
- He is the star of Deuces Wilds, a parody of "Rat Pack" caper Ocean's 11.
- Martin's birth name was Dino Paul Crocetti.
- Martin was a singer as well as actor and was known to be a womanizer and drunk, as is Crocetti.
- Martin commonly said "pally" on stage and on screen. "Clyde" was also a "Rat Pack" word, which Sinatra defined as "a catch-all noun".[5]
- When Crocetti quit, his female acquaintance wheels out a trolley of alcohol. When on stage together, Sinatra and Martin would often have a similar trolley, and would drink and mess around while the other sang.
