i hate these kinds of jokes on the shows with huge character rosters. just have characters materialize for a single joke at their expense rather than spend any amount of time setting up the bit.

no, but you can just include him in the plot somehow or just not have the joke there. characters appearing for a single joke just contributes to flanderization.
