Large Marge/References

References/Trivia

Cultural references

The Baha Men perform two different variations of their 2000 hit "Who Let the Dogs Out?" in the episode:
- Near the beginning, Marge is driving with Maggie in the car and turns the radio to a station that plays music for babies. The song playing is "Who Left the Milk Out?" which Marge loves, but Maggie can't stand.
- Over the closing credits, the song playing is "Who Let Her Jugs Out?", referring to Marge's flashing her breasts to the crowd near the end of the episode. The lyrics include Homer saying "D'oh!" several times.
During the song "You're a Bunch of Stuff", where the male customers of Luigi's sing praises to Marge's augmented figure:
- Comic Book Guy compares Marge to "X-Men #3 in a Mylar bag", which he would see as something rare and extremely valuable. The real X-Men #3 comic came out in early 1964, and Mylar bags are commonly used to protect comic books from deterioration and preserve their value.
- Snake Jailbird compares Marge to a brand new muscle car with Mag wheels. Among muscle car enthusiasts, magesium alloy wheels are a highly desirable accessory.
- The Sea Captain says Marge is like Jacqueline Bisset in his "fav'rite film, The Deep". The film's opening scene (which has achieved iconic status) shows Bisset swimming underwater wearing only a thin white T-shirt and bikini bottoms, putting her figure on impressive display.

The episode was nominated for the 2003 Golden Reel Award for Best Sound Editing in Television Animation - Music.
This appears to be the last episode Marcia Mitzman Gaven works in voicing one of Maggie Roswell's old characters.
"El Homo", Homer's attempted graffiti alias, is obviously based on Bart's far more successful alias, "El Barto".
Some scenes involving Marge's enhanced breasts were shown in FOX promos/commercials, but not in the episode:

Marge hides her breasts in the sink.
Marge uses pans to cover up her breasts when Bart comes into the kitchen.
Marge tries to cover her breasts with tennis rackets.
Bart and Lisa run into Homer's and Marge's bedroom at night. Marge is in her robe and Bart stares at her cleavage. Marge frantically points to her face and tells Bart to "Just focus on Mommy's face", to which Bart replies, "I'm trying, Mom."

One of the "before and after" pictures at the plastic surgery clinic shows Moe as his regular self and after having had plastic surgery (in "Pygmoelian").

When Bart is in his Krusty the Clown sleeping bag, at one point Krusty's face is yellow when it's supposed to be white.
The sound mysteriously pauses when Krusty rushes out of the crowd to save Milhouse at the Springfield Shoe expo trade show.
During the shoe expo, Marge's dress has conventional over-the-shoulder straps for most of the time. But when she flashes her breasts to the crowd, her dress changes to a halter top (rather than sliding the straps off of her shoulders, she unfastens the dress at the back of her neck).
