Balki has a stuffed sheep named Dimitri. In the seventh season episode "Dimitri's World", Balki explains that the wool used to make the stuffed sheep is from an actual sheep named Dimitri from Mypos, who was killed while saving Balki from being run over by a carriage. Dimitri can often be seen in the background, dressed and posed in a way to reflect what is going on. For example, in the episode "Falling in Love is...", Balki puts out a bowl of wax lips for his date with Carol; throughout the episode, Dimitri can be seen wearing a pair of wax lips as well. Also, from Season 7 on, there is a framed picture of Dimitri on their mantle.

Famous quotes containing the word personal:
“In contrast with envy, which usually occurs between two people and is focused upon another person’s qualities or possessions, jealousy occurs when a third person becomes a threat to a dyad. Jealousy involves the loss or the impending loss of a relationship that one wants to hold onto, a relationship that is vital to personal fulfillment and claimed as one’s own.”
—Carol S. Becker (b. 1942)
“Glamour cannot exist without personal social envy being a common and widespread emotion.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
“I’m afraid, sir, that I gave up my belief in goblins, witches, personal devils and werewolves at the age of six.”
—John Colton (1886–1946)
