Coincidence?

Check out the following screen capture I took form the simpsons episode "Some Enchanted Evening" (Episode 113):

Does one of those elves look very familiar (hint: http://www.gotfuturama.com/Multimedia/FrameGrabs/2ACV04/Grabs/pic00636.jpg)?

Interesting thing is, the episode aired in what, 1990?

Well, that would explain it as being two characters which Matt Groening could have had a hand in drawing. Now, if it had been a Simpsons ep from the late 90's, I'd have said coincidence.
