This episode provides the example of:
- Let Me Get This Straight...: After "The Blue Fish Blues" number...Astoria: Now, let me get this straight. This is a typical show, right, Waldorf?
Waldorf: Well, I'd say so, Astoria, my dear.
Astoria: Hmm. First a frog talks, and then a fish sings.
Waldorf: Mmm-hmmm. I wanted you to see for yourself. I bet you thought I came here to have a good time! - Negative Continuity: During The Stinger, Inspector LaBrea declares the show cancelled. But of course it's back the very next week.
- Re-Cut: "Doo-Wah Diddy" was only shown in the UK.
- [Verb] This!: When Miss Piggy tries to seduce Inspector LaBrea, he adds one sow to the list of livestock he was composing. When the offended Miss Piggy asks him to repeat himself, he clarifies that it rhymes with "cow". Miss Piggy exclaims "Rhyme this!" and nails him with one of her karate chops.
- What's a Henway?: In the "Veterinarian's Hospital" sketch, Dr. Bob declares that they're going to remove the patient's snoo.Nurse Piggy: What's snoo?
Dr. Bob: Nothing, what's snoo with you?
[Everyone laughs.]
Nurse Janice: Eww! That's an old joke!
Dr. Bob: Yeah, well, it's snoo to me!
- Waldorf & Astoria: Boo!
[LaBrea's sound monitor alerts, and LaBrea shows up in the box.]
LaBrea: That does it! The show is cancelled!
Waldorf & Astoria: Yay!
