Wapner wasn't a character in Rain Man, but Dustin Hoffman's character mentions very frequently that he needs to be able to watch The People's Court with Judge Wapner.
Had to look up Chief Wiggum - I've never seen an episode of the Simpsons. Nothing against them, I just didn't watch much TV when they first came out and I've never taken the time to catch up.
It's not a show you need to have seen previous episodes of to get new ones. Considering it's on repeat on TV non-stop, there's pretty much no way you can never have chance to see it.
ex presidents still retain the title. As do other government positions, Hillary was referred to as Secretary Clinton during the campaign, ex governors still referred to as Governor, etc...
Recommend acceptance of appropriate abbreviations for military ranks: "Sgt" for Sergeant, "Col" for Colonel, "Capt" for Captain, "Lt" for Lieutenant, "Adm" for Admiral. This coming from a former Marine & Army Sgt.
I don't remember every character in it.
Thanks
