Trivia
- Buck McCoy looks a lot like Ronald Reagan, who before being president of the US was an actor in many Westerns.
- In one scene, the audio has Lisa saying "Dad, I'm on the line". But the closed captions say Operator: "First, pay your phone bill".
- When Grandpa shows Bart his Junior Buckaroo badge, It's entitled "Little Grandpa Simpson." Obviously this is a joke rather than a scripting error or a childhood nickname.
- It could be that Grampa joined the Junior Buckaroos as an old man since he is most likely older than Buck.
- The clips in the Krusty the Clown Show intro include:
- Krusty's interview with Robert Frost. ("I Love Lisa")
- Krusty singing in the 70's. ("I Love Lisa")
- Krusty's duet with Bette Midler. ("Krusty Gets Kancelled")
- Krusty talking to Johnny Carson. ("Krusty Gets Kancelled")
- Krusty singing "Send in the Clowns". ("Krusty Gets Kancelled")
