It included appearances from actors Jason Alexander, Steve Allen, Scott Bakula, Faith Ford, Florence Henderson, Jason Hervey, Bonnie Hunt, Eugene Levy, Jayne Meadows, Bob Saget, Julia Sweeney, and Cindy Williams. The film originally included a scene with O. J. Simpson and Kim Coles, but that scene was edited out of the movie after Simpson was charged with murder.[3][4][5]

Sequel

A sequel, For Goodness Sake II, was produced by Rich Markey and released in 1996. It was written by Dennis Prager and Allen Estrin, and co-hosted by talk show hosts Dennis Prager and Larry Elder.[6] The future co-creators of South Park, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, were the film's director and 1st assistant director, respectively, and also had small parts in the film. The "fine, just fine" line that they used in their segment was later used during the South Park episode Jakovasaurs.

gollark: Very unrelated to anything, but I recently read about how TV licensing works in the UK and it's extremely weird.
gollark: "I support an increase in good things and a reduction in bad things"
gollark: Or maybe they just check it for keywords automatically, who knows.
gollark: I assume most people would agree with (most of) those things, but just saying, effectively, "more good things, fewer bad things" isn't very meaningful. Maybe that's what you're going for, but I assume they might want you to say/make up more personal-scale things.
gollark: > a return to traditional moral valuesSounds vaguely worrying. But otherwise yes, I suppose. But that's not exactly... actionable?
