    • Quotes

      Mallory Keaton: Do they have toast in England?

      Alex P. Keaton: Yeah, I think a boat load just came in this morning.

      Mallory Keaton: Alex, you don't have to be so sarcastic, okay? We are in a foreign country. We don't know for sure if they have toast here.

      Alex P. Keaton: Mallory, the United States was started by people from England. They had toast before we did.

      Mallory Keaton: Oh yeah? Who invented it?

      Alex P. Keaton: Alfred Toast.

    • Alternate versions
      The original movie has been separated into 4 parts for airing in syndication. Interestingly, at least on TBS, the wrong opening credits are used for these (from the final seasons, where Brian Bonsall is credited as Andrew; he wasn't even on the trip), and the syndicated versions air after the last episodes of the TV run are shown, instead of during the middle of the run.
