Cultural references
- The episode title is a pun on the Discovery Channel documentary/reality TV show Deadliest Catch.
- During the montage of Ned and Edna dating:
- The music playing is "Heaven Must Have Sent You" by The Elgins.
- When they cross a creek, Ned parts the water with a staff, reminiscent of Moses and the Israelites crossing the Red Sea.
- The girls basketball team is called "Lady Pumas" parody of the singer Lady Gaga.
Trivia
- Chalmers says "Skinner", not "SSKIIINNEERR!!".
- Quite a few words rhyme with Krabappel, including:
- Apple
- Chapel
- Dapple
- Grapple
- Mapple
- Topple (used by Ned)
- Dewey Largo drives a Smart car.
- Ned's "Do-not-go" list of places with racy-sounding names consists of:
- In-N-Out Burger
- Jiffy Lube
- Pinkberry (Ned crosses it off after Edna takes him there)
- Yamaha Organs
- Fannie Farmer (possibly a misspelling of Fanny Farmer)
Continuity
- Brunella Pommelhorst appears for the first time since announcing she was going to have a sex-change operation ("My Fair Laddy"). However, she looks exactly the same as before, so it would seem that she decided not to go through with the operation.
- Joey Kramer's appearance references "Flaming Moe's".
- Some of Edna's previous relationships have been seen or referred to previous episodes.
Goofs
- Sherri, Terri and Wendell Borton move from the audience to the band.
- The coffee mug Homer borrowed from Ned Flanders is a right-handed mug, but Ned is left-handed.
- Ned says he and Edna have never been "formally introduced" despite meeting and talking multiple times in previous episodes, including going on a date with each other in "Alone Again, Natura-Diddily" where Ned decides the two have nothing in common.
Notes
- In UK airings, a note at the scene where Marge tells viewers to go to thesimpsons.com to vote says "Unfortunately, voting is not available in this area", and a voiceover is heard over the credits by Homer and Marge, telling viewers that in reruns or on DVDs it's too late to vote.
