Trivia

• In this episode, it's shown that Krusty the Clown lives at 534 Center Street.
• In an earlier episode Moe was shown to be afraid of Principal Skinner (possibly due to his authority), but in this episode Moe appears to have over come his fear by delivering a hell of a punch to Seymour.
• The word "fuck" (bleeped) is said by Kent Brockman. This became the subject matter of the much later episode, "You Kent Always Say What You Want".

Cultural references

The episode features cultural references to several films, television shows, and songs. The scene with a field full of injured children from the trampoline is a reference to the field of injured soldiers shot in the film Gone with the Wind. There is a sequence of Homer trying to push the trampoline off a cliff, but once pushes it over the edge and it falls down, it lands on a pillar of rock and bounces back up. This is a reference to the Chuck Jones-directed Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner Looney Tunes cartoons. The background imitates the desert landscape from the cartoons. At church, Reverend Lovejoy plays the classic rag "The Entertainer" by Scott Joplin on the organ.

Goofs

• At night, Homer and Marge listen to some kids jumping on Homer's car. Marge then sits on the bed naked, but when the camera zooms to her face, a little portion of a pyjama is seen on her neck.
