Cultural references
- The title is a reference to the Disney film Bedknobs and Broomsticks, which was previously punned in another episode title, "MyPods and Boomsticks".
- The scene in the couch gag where Marge serves the Thanksgiving turkey is a visual pun on the Norman Rockwell painting Freedom from Want.
- Bart, Lisa and Maggie play "Bonk It"! in the car. Bonk it! is a parody of "Bop It!".
- Lisa goes online to "Wiccapedia", a parody of Wikipedia. The home page and logo are similar to those of Wikipedia.
- The split screen montage featuring Homer and Cletus drinking moonshine is a reference to the film Sideways, and recreates some of its most memorable scenes.
- The song played at the end of the episode when Lisa is skating is "Season of the Witch".
Goofs
- There are two instances where, for less than a split second, Bart, Lisa and Maggie are playing on the Bonk It, and the "Bonk It" logo in the middle of the product turns up-side down.
