According to his longtime collaborators on ''The Simpsons'', [[Al Jean]] and [[Mike Reiss]], Swartzwelder is a huge fan of [[Preston Sturges]] films and loves "anything old-timey American." This vaguely defined aesthetic presents itself in many of the episodes he's written, in the form of wandering hobos, Prohibition-era speakeasies, carnies, 19th-century baseball players, aging Western movie stars, and Sicilian gangsters.

Suzanne is a witch who lives in a Gingerbread House.

After Bart and Lisa were thrown into the Deep Dark Woods, they found their way to the Gingerbread House. At first, Lisa wanted to look up the house in her copy of Grimms' Fairy Tales, but the offer of free candy from Suzanne was enough for her and Bart to enter the house.
