Trivia

• The movies playing at the Springfield Googolplex Theatres are Shenani-Goats, Air C.H.U.D., Chocolate 2: The Vanilla-ing, Final Chapter: A New Beginning, Editor-in-Chimp, Too Many Premises!, Clone Me an Angel, and Dude, Where's MyPepsi?
• At the end of the episode when Homer drinks some Duffs to power himself up and rescue Marge is a reference to Popeye cartoons, where Popeye rescues his love by powering himself up with spinach.
• The name of this episode is a reference to the film Eyes Wide Shut.
• There is a float on the gay parade called "Stayin' In The Closet" with a man and a woman peering out. It is heavily implied that they are Patty Bouvier and Waylon Smithers. While Patty confirmed she was a lesbian in season 16's episode "There's Something About Marrying". However, there has been no official confirmation that Smithers is homosexual (though a running gag heavily implies it).
• When Homer is twirling Maggie around by her pacifier, the music playing is the music from the tornado scene in The Wizard of Oz.

Continuity

• Homer's X-Ray clearly shows the crayon that reduces his intelligence first seen in HOMЯ.
