* ParodyDisplacement: Because of this episode, some young people think that the original ''Theatre/AStreetcarNamedDesire'' is a musical. This is rather funny, as the entire gag originally was that ''A Streetcar Named Desire'' is anything ''but'' a story well-suited to be turned into a lighthearted musical.

* {{Woolseyism}}: Chief Wiggum's voice actor in Spain is an accomplished singer, so the joke isn't that he was given the part despite his voice being terrible for it, but that he was surprisingly good at it.

* FridgeHorror: The episode never specifies whether the musical cuts [[spoiler:Stanley raping Blanche.]] [[note]]Considering we see Ned and Marge rehearsing a scene where he throws her onto a bed before being interrupted by Maggie, it's more than likely that they didn't.[[/note]] If it didn't, then Bart and Lisa had to watch their mother acting out [[spoiler:being sexually assaulted. For what it's worth, Stanley asking Blanche for "one embrace" and getting turned down/attacked is definitely in the musical, as is her later descent into madness, which Lisa claims is what the scene where Marge flies around surrounded by smoke and lasers is meant to represent.]]
