Cultural references

  • When Homer realizes that Marge is not worrying about the kids and therefore he has to, he says "Help me, Mayonaise", downs a quart of it, and flexes his biceps. This alludes to Popeye the Sailor who utters a similar sentiment about spinach just before downing a can of the same, then seeing his muscle mass of his arms instantly increase.
  • The title of this episode is a play on the title of the 1950s sitcom Father Knows Best.

Trivia

  • Moe lives in the back of Moe's in this episode.
  • Homer throws a paper airplane to Bart with the name of the building to made for the Plywood sculpture assignment. After that Homer says "I did it! I helped my son! Helicopter Homer away!" and starts spinning like a helicopter. But in a few seconds he crashes into a wall and falls. After that he says "Black hawk down! Black hawk down!". In this phrase he compares himself to UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter

Notes

  • In 2009, Dan Castellaneta won the Emmy for Outstanding Voice-Over Performance for playing Homer Simpson in this episode.
  • The theme song at the end of the episode is sung instead of the usual tune.

Goofs

  • When Homer decides to help Bart and Lisa he eats mayonnaise (in a Popeye fashion) and previously he had strong taste buds so it would hurt incredibly.
