Behind the Laughter
Sketch of "Kindly Old Gent" and "Man With Nice Stride"
Moleman first appeared as a character model for the season two episode "Principal Charming", but he looked so shriveled and unrealistic that some one proclaimed to look like a "mole man". Before this, Moleman was known as "Kindly Old Gent". However, he was used in several episodes and later became a recurring character.
According to the episode "Principal Charming", his name was Ralph Melish, which is a reference to the Monty Python sketch, The Adventures Of Ralph Melish: Hot Dog and Knickers, from The Monty Python Matching Tie and Handkerchief.
According to a DVD commentary for one episode, some number of viewers were offended by Moleman's appearance, and he was reused in order to annoy people of such a viewpoint. Matt Groening has claimed that Hans Moleman was inspired by Tex Avery's Droopy Dog, who shares many of Moleman's deadpan and unassuming mannerisms.
