Cultural references[edit]
- The movie Marge wanted to see was Waiting to Exhale, a romantic-comedy-drama starring Angela Bassett and Whitney Houston (which Homer got put on the video store's waiting list), and Lisa's pick was Emma, an adaptation of Jane Austen's novel starring Gwyneth Paltrow (Homer did not rent it either).
- Paint Your Wagon is a real Western musical directed by Joshua Logan (better known for musicals rather than the "bloody mayhem and unholy carnage" Bart expected) and starring Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin, but the dialogue and songs in the episode are not from the movie.
- The outfit worn by Clint Eastwood is the same one he wore in the Western Man with No Name.
- The man in black confronted by Clint Eastwood was modeled on actor Lee Van Cleef and specifically his character Colonel Douglas Mortimer from the Clint Eastwood Western For a Few Dollars More.
Trivia[edit]
- All of the musical numbers in this episode, with the exception of "We Put the Spring in Springfield," are on the soundtrack Songs in the Key of Springfield. "We Put the Spring in Springfield" instead appears in Go Simpsonic with The Simpsons.
- The first shots by Snake are heard over Phil Hartman's name in the credits (Hartman was shot dead by his wife as he slept, four months after this episode first aired). While technically this is his last episode produced, his only part in this episode is a clip from "Marge vs. the Monorail".
- When this episode is shown in syndication, the endings to the first two song clips are cut out. Sometimes, the credits also cut off right after Snake's first shots.
- At one point, towards the end of the episode, there is a banner saying "Simpsons Clip Show #4" and the episode's production code, (5F24), an example of fourth wall-breaking.
- When Lisa lists all the people who sing (Krusty, Mr. Burns, and Apu), they consist of all the male voice actors (Dan Castellaneta, Harry Shearer, and Hank Azaria, respectively).
Continuity[edit]
- Songs used in the episode that appeared in other episodes are:
- "Baby on Board" - "Homer's Barbershop Quartet"
- "We Put the Spring in Springfield" - "Bart After Dark"
- "Springfield, Springfield" - "Boy-Scoutz 'n the Hood"
- "Who Needs the Kwik-E-Mart?" - "Homer and Apu"
- "Send In the Clowns" - "Krusty Gets Kancelled"
- "See My Vest" - "Two Dozen and One Greyhounds"
- "The Monorail Song" - "Marge vs. the Monorail"
- "In the Garden of Eden" - "Bart Sells His Soul"
- "We Do" - "Homer the Great"
- Bart no longer likes Burns' "See My Vest" song, unlike in "Two Dozen and One Greyhounds".
