Cultural References
- The episode title is a reference to the Alice Walker novel The Color Purple.
Goofs
- There is a lack of continuity between this episode and the episode Lisa the Simpson, where it is revealed only the males of the Simpson family are failures, whereas the females are often successful and highly intelligent.
- Mabel and Virgil could not cross the "Canadian border" in 1860 as Canada did not become a country until 1867. When they left the United States, they entered an area that was still a British colony at the time.
- The Canadian flag that appears in the episode is not the official flag of Canada until 1965.

- A Pin Pals picture ("Team Homer")

- Homer's Astrolabe ("'Tis the Fifteenth Season")
- Homer's Spacesuit ("Deep Space Homer")
