References
- The title is a parody of the 1998 drama American History X, but tacks on Mr. Burns' catchphrase at the end.
- There is a POV shot of Carl inside the diving suite, a reference to the much acclaimed video game bioshock, where Carl is the Big Daddy and Homer is a Splicer Brute.
Trivia
- Although Mr. Burns has been replaced or substituted by many characters before, including Lenny and even Homer, this episode marks the first time that Smithers himself replaces Mr. Burns as owner of the Power Plant.
- This episode also implies that Smithers might have become openly gay, given Homer's comment about knowing about Smither's tendency to "like his loafers light" as well as flashing Smithers twice, with the first time suggesting Smithers to "use that image any way [Smithers] would like."
