Debut

His debute was in "A Funeral for a Fiend".

Role in the episode

When Sideshow Bob was put on trial for trying to kill The Simpsons, he claimed that Bob had suffered from an illness caused by his desire to kill Bart Simpson. Bart threw Sideshow Bob's medication out of a window (believing it to be a biological weapon). This subsequently caused Sideshow Bob to "die". In reality, Bob was injected with a death simulation drug by his father prior to the fated trial in order to conduct a complex plan to kill Bart Simpson via locking him in a coffin and cremating him.

Hair

Surprisingly the Terwilliger brothers get their distinctive hair from their mother's side. Cecil's hair is relatively normal.Sideshow Bob and his brother Cecil got the shape of their head from their father.

Bridge

Prison Sentence

He, and the rest of the Terwilliger family, are in prison for 87 years.

Trivia

He is voiced by John Mahoney, who also plays the father of the two brothers in Frasier. The two brothers are voiced by Kelsey Grammer and David Hyde Pierce the voice actors of Sideshow Bob and Cecil Terwilliger who are brothers in The Simpsons. Kelsey and David also star as Frasier and Niles Crane.
