　　When viewers first laid eyes on Montgomery Burns' assistant, he was black.

　　But when he appeared on screen again he was yellow, because of what the show's creator Matt Groening says was a mistake.
　　但当他再现荧屏时已变成黄色，因为该剧的创作人马特·格勒宁说这是一次失误。

　　这位六十岁的老人声称这个人物就该是黄色的，但是动画师上错了颜色，并且因为他们缺少资金而没钱重画。
　　The writer also revealed that all the characters are yellow, because he wanted them to look different to everything else on TV, and have four fingers because it is easier to draw.
　　这位原作者也透露了所有的人物之所以是黄色的，是因为他想要这些人物看上去和电视上的其他东西与众不同，而之所以他们是四指的纯粹是因为画起来更容易些。
　　Talking to TMZ, he said: 'He was always yellow, and they painted him wrong once.
　　在和美国娱乐新闻网站TMZ的对话中他表示：“他就该是黄色的，只是他们给他上错了一次色。”
　　'At the time we didn't have enough to do retakes, so when there were glitches 1 and mistakes it stayed that way.‘“在那时，小错误小毛病我们就随它去了，不足以去重画它们。”
　　'He was never 'black', it was an accident.'
　　“他从来就不该是‘黑色的’，这是个意外。”
　　The interviewer then asks why all of the characters are yellow, to which Groening sarcastically 2 replies:  'I've never noticed'. He then adds: 'It is so they wouldn't look like anything else on TV... except for Spongebob.'
　　采访者随后询问了为什么所有人物都是黄色的，对此格勒宁讽刺地回应道：“我从未注意过。”随后他补充说：“这样他们就和电视上的其他人物相比独树一帜了，当然除了海绵宝宝以外。“And he said that the reason all of the characters have four fingers is because it is 'easier to draw'.
　　而且他说道之所以所有人物都是四根手指的是因为这样”比较好画“。
　　'That is a lot of pencil mileage 3 if you add another finger' he said.
　　“如果你要多加一根手指的话要浪费好多铅笔芯呢，“他说。
