Cultural references

• At the beginning of the episode, the Simpsons are watching a show called Knightboat: The Crime Solving Boat, a parody of Knight Rider.
• The kid in the Bowl-O-Rama who wants to go to California is a reference to the movie The Wizard.
• The Mary Tyler Moore Show: At the end of the montage of scenes of Homer working at the Bowl-O-Rama, the theme music from MTM plays and Homer sings "I'm gonna make it after all!", similar to the lyrics from the MTM theme song. Homer then tosses a bowling ball into the air, similar to Mary Richards tossing her hat into the air at the end of MTM's opening sequence.

Goofs

• When Homer finds out that Marge is pregnant with Lisa, he runs up the stairs, but on the wall you can see a picture of Lisa (or at least someone who looks like her).
• Also when Homer finds out about Lisa he was upstairs in the bathroom with Bart when Bart was flushing the keys down the toilet, in Lisa's First Word.
