'''''The Little Rascals''''' was an American comedy film series from the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s starring and aimed at young children. It was originally called ''"Our Gang"''. The new title ''"The Little Rascals"'' was created when the series became syndicated on television. 

== 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 {{ch|Leonard Nimoy}} asked [[Joe Quimby]] if he know who he was, Quimby asked him if he was one of the Little Rascals<ref>"[[Marge vs. the Monorail]]"</ref>

[[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. This is a reference to the real actor who played Alfalfa, Carl Switzer, who was later murdered. Contrary to Moe's story in real life Switzer was already an adult when he was killed. <ref>"[[Radioactive Man]]"</ref>

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." <ref>"[[Homer the Smithers]]"</ref>

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.<ref>"[[Wild Barts Can't Be Broken]]"</ref>
