The apartment decor gave us clues to Terry's obsession with romance and adventure with posters scattered around from films like:- Metropolis, The Maltese Falcon, Casablanca, Attack of the 50 Foot Woman and Kiss of the Spider Woman.Thanks to Elizabeth

Cameo from UK comedienne Tracy Ullman who went Stateside at the end of the 80's after stints on shows like 'Three of a Kind' with Lenny Henry and that Medallion Man Bloke.Thanks to Veronica Luna
The Sperry Repairman/bad guy who attempts to kidnap Goldberg twice is comedic actor James "Jim" Belushi who also appeared in 'Mr. Destiny' (1990), 'Curly Sue' (1991), and is the star of primetime television sitcom 'According To Jim.'Thanks to HawnGuy
Garry Marshall, who is Director Penny's brother, (a director himself eg: Pretty Woman) makes a brief cameo in the film. He is the detective doubting Goldberg's story after her meeting at the dock and got tossed in the water. Stephen Collins whisks away Goldberg when she's foulmouthing back at Garry Marshall to avoid being arrested.Thanks to HawnGuy
Michael McKean, who starred with Penny on Laverne & Shirley, as Lenny, is the one who walks into the party with Tracy Ullman. Goldberg temporarily borrows McKean so she can quietly mosey on in because she didn't have the proper invitation.Thanks to Kelly Brown And Nicole
Tracy Reiner who is Penny's daughter plays the boss's pet. Each time Goldberg was late for work, she is seen in the backround running to let the boss know that Goldberg just came in.Thanks to Kelly Brown
Tracy was born to Penny Marshall and Michael Henry in New Mexico in 1964. Penny and Michael divorced after two years. A few years later, Penny married Rob Reiner and he legally adopted Tracy, hence the "Reiner" after her name. Tracy appears in almost all of Penny's movies, but has yet to make it into the big time. She is an associate producer and director of low budget films.Thanks to HawnGuy
Tracy went on and did "A League of Their Own" which was also directed by Penny Marshall and also did "Riding In Cars With Boys" with Drew Barrymore.Thanks to David
