Cultural references[edit]
- The episode title is a pun on the legend of the Wandering Jew.
- The song playing during the prison dance is "Colour My World" by Chicago.
- When Gina tells Bart that her crime was pushing Snow White off a parapet at Disneyland, she shows him a newspaper clipping with the headline "It's a Fall World", a pun on the Disney song "It's a Small World".
- Moonhilda (the alien whom Homer imagines abducting Bart) is a pun on Broom-Hilda.
- The title of Snake's book, The Ten Habits of Highly Successful Criminals, is a pun on the self-help book The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.
- The Warden has a sampler hanging in his office that reads "His judgment cometh and that right soon", the same as the warden in The Shawshank Redemption.
- The plot of this episode borrows heavily from The Defiant Ones where two escaped convicts who are chained together go from being enemies to being friends.
- When Bart is scanning wedding presents, the song playing is "White Wedding" by Billy Idol.
- When Gina and Bart are fighting each other before being caught by Chief Wiggum, Gina insults Bart by saying Family Guy. This is a reference to the TV show Family Guy.
Trivia[edit]
- The list of things Bart picks for his fake wedding: A coffee maker, waffle iron, tea service, fondue pot, dish towels, silverware, cheese grater, mellonballer, andirons, china figurine, and chain valance.
- The voice of Kearney appeared in two different boys when Bart was in Juvie and neither were Kearney. First a kid with blond hair in the yard, and then later in the dance hall in a bald kid.
- Wiggum just got mauled by a bear, yet his clothes are not ripped at all, and his guts aren't spilling out, he has suffered no blood loss, and he isn't even in any pain.
- This is the second time Chicago's "Colour my World" has been played in this show. The first was in "Homer the Moe".
- Snake Jailbird is said to be a former under-aged offender. However, in "The Seemingly Never-Ending Story", it is revealed that he was an archaeologist and a professor, which would seem extremely hard to get if he was in juvie at one point. He was also referred to as "Detention Bird" when he was 13 ("Springfield Up") which suggests that he may have possibly been to juvie, or makes it more likely.
- The quotation on the sampler on the warden's office wall, "His judgement cometh and that right soon", is commonly thought to be a Scripture quotation. However, it doesn't actually appear in the Bible. In the body of Christian Scriptures, the closest wording to the sampler appears in the deuterocanonical book of Sirach (also called Ecclesiasticus). In the King James Version, Sirach 21:5 reads, "A prayer out of a poor man's mouth reacheth to the ears of God, and his judgment cometh speedily." However, the theme of judgement coming promptly, or in the proper time, is a frequently-occurring one in Scripture; so while the sampler doesn't actually have a Scripture quote, it does reflect a Scriptural concept.
Continuity[edit]
- Several of the people who took the parenting class in "Home Sweet Homediddly-Dum-Doodily" (including Cletus and Mervin Monroe) are seen visiting their kids in juvie, showing that the class didn't help.
Goofs[edit]
- When Homer is at Costington's, his pants get ripped in the escalator. In the next scene, he is shown with his pants down in the dressing room.
- As Marge's magnifier in the dermatologist section of Costington's continues to zoom closer and closer on her face, the screen number changes from X2, X8, X100, X5000, X1000. The "X5000" should be "X500".
- Also, the screen which shows Marge's skin at x1000 magnification displays a green monster which emerges from a crater and eats part of the skin. Whenever part of the green monster goes beyond the display, a shadow appears in the screen's bezel, darker than the bezel.
- This does not occur when the monster is killed by the 'river' of moisturiser on Marge's face, however.
- Also, the screen which shows Marge's skin at x1000 magnification displays a green monster which emerges from a crater and eats part of the skin. Whenever part of the green monster goes beyond the display, a shadow appears in the screen's bezel, darker than the bezel.
