No meta moment, see this query.


* A Meta example, but in the scene where one of the henchmen, [[MeanCharacterNiceActor Lyle, the red-shirted cowboy played by Burton Gilliam, is to call Black Bart a "Nigger", the actor felt uncomfortable saying it.]] Creator/CleavonLittle took the fella aside and [[NWordPrivileges told him that it was okay]], and that it was just part of the script. Of course, he told the guy not to call him that for real.
** Likewise, Slim Pickens also had difficulties about acting like a racist. In fact, after such scenes, both he and Gilliam would apologize to the black actors for the things that their characters said. As it is, the black actors had to tell them that it was alright, due to it being part of the script.

* Even though it's played for laughs, the reaction of the crowd when Bart takes himself hostage is touching. They are all genuinely concerned for his safety and worried about performing any actions that will get him killed. A sign that they're good people at heart.

* The scene in which the townsfolk agree to give the railroad workers some land to homestead in exchange for their help succeeds at the incredible task of being both incredibly sweet and [[CrossesTheLineTwice hilariously wrong]].

* When Bart first arrives in Rock Ridge and the rest of the townsfolk are ready to lynch him right there on the spot, the preacher still attempts to speak up on his behalf. It doesn't last long after someone shoots the bible out of his hand, but he was ''still'' the only one willing to give Bart a fair shake from the start.
