History

When Mr. Burns was told that Ringo was the drummer of the Beatles he told him that he remembered their off-key caterwauling on the old Sullivan show.

At the Springfield High School reunion Bobby Mindix did an impression of Ed Sullivan.

He is most remembered because he, at least according to Krusty the Clown, "always wore a shirt".

Chief Wiggum does an impression of Ed Sullivan.

The Beatles appeared as wax statues in a display at the Springfield Wax Museum. The Squeaky-voiced teen, leading a tour group, said that they were "exactly as they looked performing on The Ed Sullivan Show", but the statues had melted due to a spell of very hot weather in Springfield.
