** The episode was made at a time when ''Series/{{Lovejoy}}'' was Ian [=McShane's=] one really well-known role outside his native Britain, and it can now feel quite awkward that they keep going back to that well, without a single mention of his massive CareerResurrection that started a few years later with ''Series/{{Deadwood}}''.

* UnintentionalPeriodPiece:
** One scene shows a flag with a martini being raised on a boat. Crow riffs, "Ted Kennedy died." As of 8/25/2009 you can raise that flag (or acknowledge his passing a little more appropriately).

* CaliforniaDoubling: The crew accuse the TV movie of this as a RunningGag, and are shocked when the credits state every scene was shot on location in UsefulNotes/{{Hawaii}}.
** The "FILMED ENTIRELY ON LOCATION IN HAWAII" at the very end of the credits almost acts as an unintentional BrickJoke.

* HilariousInHindsight: Tom sings [[Music/{{Nirvana}} "Smells Like Teen Spirit"]] over a girls' marching band, which now immediately brings to mind the song's use in the opening credits of ''Film/BlackWidow'', where a very similar shot appears.

* GeniusBonus: At one point in the film, Crow notes, "Shot on Minnehaha Avenue in [[UsefulNotes/TwinCities Minneapolis]]." This is a ''hilarious'' joke if you live in the Twin Cities, as the background scenery he's referring to looks very similar to ADM Milling, found on Hiawatha Avenue (about a block from Minnehaha Avenue).

It's almost certainly unintentional on the riffers' part, but as it happens, "Tia Maria" translates into "Aunt Mary."

** During the boat scene, the following exchange occurs:
--->'''Tso-Tsing:''' What's in the bottle?\\
'''Tree:''' To some, a whirlwind! To me, the only reality: five hundred thousand dollars in a Swiss bank account.\\
'''Crow (as Tso-Tsing):''' No, I mean the red bottle.\\
'''Servo (as Tree):''' Oh, that's Tia Maria.
