* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Unlike season 8 when Pearl and co. were always changing locations, Castle Forrester was always in the same place until this episode, when it abruptly moved to a suburban neighborhood. The reason? The mountaintop where it used to be had the gall to charge Pearl $50 for an ape license. However, by episode's end Castle Forrester was back on the mountain, since Pearl discovered she couldn't throw her trash out the window.

** During one of the host segments, Mike roleplays as the audition manager and has Pearl, Bobo, and Brain Guy do acts for him. Brain Guy's act is a parody of the "I'm a Maniac" scene from ''Film/{{Flashdance}}''.

* IronicEcho: Mike and the bots tend to dramatically proclaim '''"THE HORRORS OF SPIDER ISLAND!"'''--shifting the emphasis between ''horrors'' and ''spider''--whenever the movie ratchets up the {{Fanservice}}.
** This is actually a CallBack (WAY back) to [[Recap/MysteryScienceTheater3000S04E24ManosTheHandsOfFate Manos: The Hands of Fate]], where Joel and the Bots spent the first half of the movie doing the same dramatic title drops whenever nothing was happening onscreen (which, again, was pretty much the first half of the movie... And maybe a good deal of the second half, too).

Film watched: ''Film/HorrorsOfSpiderIsland''

!!The ''Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000'' presentation contains these tropes:

* CallBack: When Mike and the bots are joking about the scientist being caught in a web "in the midst of a cheerleading routine," Crow mentions "[[TheGiantSpiderInvasion MRxL]]."
* [[ContinuitySnarl Continuity Goof]]: The host segment about finding Mike splayed over a giant web and the host segment about them crashing like the plane in the movie are out of order.
* FailedASpotCheck: The bots invoke this when Mike gets trapped in a giant spider web on the SOL bridge.
* HistoricalInJoke: When the girls try and fail to flag down a passing cruise ship, Mike remarks "Damn ''Californian'', never helps anyone!" The ''Californian'' was a ship that was in the vicinity of the ''Titanic'' when it sank but didn't render aid for reasons that remain vague. May also count as a GeniusBonus.
* IncrediblyLamePun:
-->'''Gary:''' There you are, Georgia.
-->'''Mike:''' Just north of Florida.
-->'''Servo:''' D'oh!
* IronicEcho: Mike and the bots tend to dramatically proclaim '''"THE HORRORS OF SPIDER ISLAND!"''' -shifting the emphasis between ''horrors'' and ''spider''- whenever the movie ratchets up the {{Fanservice}}.

* ShoutOut:
-->'''Servo:''' So, [[{{Spider-Man}} is he strong?]]
-->'''Crow (enraged):''' [[BraggingThemeTune LISTEN, BUD! HE'S GOT RADIOACTIVE BLOOD!]]
* TheTalk: Pearl gives one to Bobo after he discovers some condoms but mistakes them for balloons. She does this off-camera, telling Mike and the Bots they're too young for it. We can't hear what Pearl says, but Bobo makes {{Squick}} noises.
