Just an example: The radioactive empowered Peter and Homer's first clash generated a giant donut-shaped fiery wave across Springfield.

** Crossing over with NightmareFuel, the brief shot of several innocent people whose clothes get burned off, leaving them naked in public as a result of the nuclear fallout caused by Peter and Homer during their fight could be this to people who are sensitive about nudity.

* OlderThanTheyThink : This isn't the first time The Simpsons and Family Guy have had a crossover. MAD magazine did it in its number 458; where Marge and Lois exchanged families, and in the end decided to escape together as a couple after seeing the life that each one led.

* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: The entirety of the Lisa and Meg subplot, as Lisa is determined to find something that Meg is actually good at to boost her self-esteem. It really feels like [[AuthorsSavingThrow the writers trying to make up for making Meg]] the ButtMonkey. Especially since it ends with Lisa swallowing her pride after discovering that Meg is a better saxophone player and giving her the saxophone as a reminder. ([[YankTheDogsChain Peter ends up throwing it in the trash]], but it's still a nice gesture. And they ended the episode with a hug, so it's okay)

* SignatureScene: The fight between Peter and Homer at the end of the third act became the most discussed element of the episode shortly after it aired, due to its overly long length and being far too violent by ''Simpsons'' standards. The fact it takes place across [[ContinuityPorn multiple famous locations on Springfield]] and features a cameo from fan-favourite characters like [[FountainOfMemes Ralph Wiggum]], [[HalloweenEpisode Kang and Kodos]], and [[WesternAnimation/AmericanDad Roger Smith]] also greatly contributed to its notoriety.
