- At the end of the episode, God tells Homer the meaning of life, but the closing credits start before the audience can hear it.
- God also mentions that Homer has to wait 6 months to know the meaning of life, because Homer will die. This could mean that he was supposed to die in "Homer's Triple Bypass", which aired approximately six months after this episode.
Goofs
- God is shown as having five fingers instead of the four which are the norm in the cartoon world. But at the end of the episode when God is telling Homer the meaning of life, he has four fingers and toes instead of five.
