- Questionable Casting: As great as Walter Matthau and George Burns are, it's a bit hard to take Burns's character as the aggressor in the relationship seriously, given how Matthau towers over him.
- Retroactive Recognition:
- F. Murray Abraham, long before he won an Oscar for playing Antonio Salieri, appears as the mechanic at the garage Willy goes to when he gets the address for the potato chip commercial audition wrong.
- Howard Hesseman, several years before his Star-Making Role as Dr. Johnny Fever on WKRP in Cincinnati, plays the director of the commercial Willy auditions for.
- Spiritual Successor: For The Boys and Mr. Saturday Night.
