Draws on

What the speakers say they, or a film of theirs, drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

Batman (TV series, 1966-68) (1966): 1 line

  1. industry (industry) · through The Simpsons (1989), which they acted in: Batman (TV series, 1966-68) ⇒ The Simpsons (the host's read). The Radioactive Man parody mirrors the fate of old Batman actors doing car-dealership appearances in costume.
    “that's the kind of thing that the Simpsons parodies, right?”

Drawn on by

What the speakers say drew on them or a film of theirs, marked the same way.

Don Payne: 1 line

  1. career (career) · through The Simpsons (1989), which they acted in: The Simpsons ⇒ Don Payne (the host's read). Payne's weirder ideas in superhero movies came out of his Simpsons background.

Game of Thrones (2011): 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through The War of the Roses (1989), which they acted in: The War of the Roses ⇒ Game of Thrones (the host's read). The actual historical Wars of the Roses was a big inspiration for Game of Thrones.

Problem Child: 1 line

  1. lineage (lineage) · through The War of the Roses (1989), which they acted in: The War of the Roses ⇒ Problem Child (the maker said so: the writer's own account on the show). They had pitched Problem Child to be a grown-up dark comedy like The War of the Roses.

What was said about them, by kind

career (1)

  1. career (career): Dan Castellaneta → Homer Simpson. The silent client is the voice of Homer Simpson; the speakers are baffled by that casting.
    “it's just weird that that became Homer Simpson.”
