Trivia
- On one wall of Kent Brockman's office is a picture showing him on the Berlin Wall. One of the writings on the wall is German for "Kent was here".
Cultural references
- The title "You Kent Always Say What You Want" is a pun on "You Can't Always Say What You Want".
- The scene where Kent Brockman says to stand up to FOX while smoking is in reference to Edward R. Murrow and the film "Good Night, and Good Luck".[1]
- The title of the video shown in the dentist's office, "Menace Tooth Society" (which was implied to have been shown without Ludacris' permission), is a spoof of "Menace II Society". Lisa's comment that the cartoon sends mixed messages parallels critiques of the spoofed movie.
- This is the first episode that focuses on Kent Brockman.
- The title of this episode is a play on the The Rolling Stones song "You Can't Always Get What You Want".
- When ordering his ice cream cone, Homer mentions several toppings, all of which are real candies with their names slightly but noticeably changed, such as Herschel's Smooches and Mrs. Badbar. Even though real candies have been mentioned several times in the show before.
- As Marge runs hurriedly home to greet Bart and Lisa, the main yodeling music of the Coen Brother's film "Raising Arizona" is heard.
