Ascended Fanboy: Director Larry Meyerson loved Buddy growing up, and even created a main character based on him. (Unfortunately, when you can have Walter Matthau interested in the part, you go with Matthau.) | |

Adapted Out | |
| Mr. Saturday Night / int_33d5b7f2 | comment |
Adapted Out: The stage musical removes Buddy and Stan's mother, and Buddy's son (who is only seen as a child in flashbacks and is referred to only a couple of times in the present day scenes, thus having no real impact on the plot at all). | |

Adaptational Alternate Ending: In the stage musical, the show ends with Buddy getting the part of the grandfather after all (though he still passes on it at first). | |

Big Eater: Buddy and Stan's family were these, and even incorporated in their comedy act, which they told in front of them as teens. They all found it hilarious. | |
