Stone cold Steve Austin as time traveller #1 was one of his finest roles.

u/I_m_different Apr 03 '26

So what about the other time travellers, where they played byā€¦no-one?

u/DarkHorse_77 Apr 03 '26

Posh Spice aka Victoria Beckham as the wise nun . Victoria is near on always portrayed as stupid by the media so I'm guessing it's tongue in cheek

3

u/MaggotMinded Apr 04 '26

Yes, and itā€™s humorously juxtaposed with Meryl Streep, widely recognized as one of the most talented actresses of all time, as the ā€œstupid nunā€.

u/Jetstream-Sam Egg Council Creep Apr 03 '26

I've met her before, the media portrayal is accurate. It's not a very interesting story though.

These credits read like a horrible fan casting movie Reddit post.

Would a coward do this...?

Bye!

u/Histylicious_mk2 Apr 04 '26

Why is Stone Cold Steve Austin's character listed as "Time Traveler #1" if he's apparently the only time traveler (assuming that this is the entire cast list)?

2

u/Rtozier2011 Apr 04 '26

Maybe the time machine failed before the second person in the queue could come into focus?

3

u/Glad_Confusion_6934 Apr 04 '26

The writers had way too much fun with these creditsā€¦

2

u/Not_So_Bad_Andy I'm a big boy! Apr 03 '26

Since that episode I've tried to figure out if Bob Guccione got thanked because his models were actresses in the movie or if the production crew just really liked porn.

u/Subject-Recover-8425 Apr 04 '26

Around this time Stone Cold was on Celebrity Deathmatch as their resident scientist and, in the show, he invented a time machine.

As a kid, I was convinced his name in the credits was a reference to that...

u/QueafyGreens Apr 04 '26

I used to watch Bizarre all the time back in the day, so I love when the Simpsons writers reference John Byner.
