Cultural references
- The episode title is a pun on the film The Full Monty and a reference to Mr. Burns' nickname of "Monty".
- When Kent Brockman breaks the news of the cat flu on Channel 6 News, the graphics cards accompanying the story read "Apocalypse Meow" and "The Purrfect Storm", punning the movies Apocalypse Now and The Perfect Storm.
- The scene where Mr. Burns hides in Bart's closet is a reference to the movie E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial. Also, E.T. is seen in the closet amongst the other stuffed animals.
Continuity
- Mr. Burns threatens to lower a dome on Springfield again. This has been done before. (The Simpsons Movie)
- Also, Eddie states that they could just dig a way out if he did lower the dome, something fans have suggested and wondered why they didn't do it since the movie aired.
- Maggie points a gun at Mr. Burns again, wanting to kill him. ("Who Shot Mr. Burns?")
