| 1 | * FanonDiscontinuity: The episode depicts the lives of The Simpsons throughout the '90s, completely ignoring that the events of episodes which aired during the show's earlier seasons that took place in the '90s, and completely rewriting canon as a result. This may have been upgraded to CanonDiscontinuity in later seasons, since they continue to depict Homer and Marge as having gotten together in the mid-1970s. More charitable fans view the episode as "What ''if'' Homer and Marge first met in the '90s?" rather than replacing their well-established love story. |
| 2 | * HilariousInHindsight: |
| 3 | ** While splitting up their possessions, Homer takes all the stuff that will be considered worthless in the late '90s-2000s (vinyl [=LPs, Enron stock, a typewriter)=] and gives Marge all the stuff that will be successful later on [=(CDs, Microsoft stock, a computer)=]. However, in TheNewTens vinyl [=LPs saw a resurgence in popularity thanks to the analog audio provided by vinyl being considered the best listening experience for music while CDs were rendered obsolete thanks to the aforementioned resurgence as well as the rise of MP3 files=] and digital streaming. So to modern viewers, it appears Homer actually won that specific split. |
| 4 | ** The name of the episode is an obvious ShoutOut to ''Series/That70sShow''. In 2021, Creator/{{Netflix}} ordered a spinoff of that series that was indeed titled ''Series/That90sShow'', which premiered in 2023. |
| 5 | * HarsherInHindsight: When talking about "lying in a deposition in a civil lawsuit" being the worst thing a president could do, the writers were ''probably'' comparing Clinton to the then-outgoing president George W. Bush. Eight years later, we got Trump. |
| 6 | * TheyChangedItNowItSucks: The general response to Homer and Marge dating in the '90s [[{{Retcon}} rather than in the '70s]]. |
