So, the original Sunnyvale was like, 20 minutes from the house I grew up in and living here it's weirder to have not met most of the cast at some point. A lot of the more minor characters didn't seem to get paid much at all. Mr. Lahey lived in the awful neighborhood near my Junior High and bummed around a local parking lot, if recognized he'd go straight into character. I'm still amazed to this day that show got as big as it did, there is so much specifically local terminology and stuff that I think people believe came from the show. Basically none of the stores and signs are fake as well

BTW I should add: John Dunsworth (Jim) didn't actually drink at all and was a very very nice guy. He just kinda liked wandering around the neighborhood and that parking lot was kinda the core
