Cultural references
- The action sequence at the candy convention is "based on every Bruce Willis movie ever made."
- Homer's imagination of living underwater is a parody of the song "Under the Sea" from the Disney film The Little Mermaid. David Mirkin says he thought the sequence would be funny because Homer would eat all of the characters from the film.
- Among the TV shows parodied during the episode: Hard Copy, Sally Jessy Raphael, the Late Show with David Letterman and media coverage of the O.J. Simpson standoff.
- The news coverage showing Homer knocked out in the bathroom with the shower curtain draped over him, and the voice-over saying he slept in an oxygen tent believing it would enhance his sexual powers, is a reference to widespread tabloid rumors saying that Michael Jackson slept in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber in an attempt to slow the aging process.
- When Rock Bottom does a story on Groundskeeper Willie, the producers dub him "Rowdy Roddy Peeper," a reference to "Rowdy" Roddy Piper, the stage name of a professional wrestler who adopted a Scottish persona in the ring.
Trivia
- In the future (the year 2013 as shown in Future-Drama), Homer is living in a house at the bottom of the ocean.
