* AccidentallyCorrectWriting: Mr. Burns is portrayed as left-handed in this episode, though many episodes before and since have shown him writing with his right. This was likely just a case of [[DependingOnTheWriter writers forgetting previous minutia]], but as it happens, in the early 20th century (i.e. when Mr. Burns grew up), left-handedness was considered improper and lefties were forced to learn to write with their right hand anyways.

* TroubledProduction: Much like "[[Recap/TheSimpsonsS1E13SomeEnchantedEvening Some Enchanted Evening]]", this episode was actually delayed due to excess errors, and was originally produced for late Season 2. This happened because the episode was farmed out to, according to the DVDCommentary, a "company that no one had ever heard of; it was people that had just recently gotten opposable thumbs" (that said, the credits still list {{Creator/AKOM}} as the animators[[labelnote:*]]though whether this means they helped with the retakes, or simply farmed the episode to an [[UncreditedRole uncredited]] third party in the first place is unknown.[[/labelnote]]). Mike Reiss had said he will always remember the episode "that came back animated with a thousand mistakes in it and was just a complete and utter mess". They had attempted to clean up as much as possible, but errors still made it through. The delay meant it aired with the relatively crisper Season Three.
