• According to Bart's phone call to Moe's, the Simpsons original address was 1094 Evergreen Terrace, instead of 742.
• Bart says "Can't a guy's skin look it's yellowest" though in future and past episodes the Simpsons refer to other yellow people's skin as "white".
• The shot of Homer drooling at the commercial for The Frying Dutchman is recycled from "Bart's Friend Falls in Love" and is mirror flipped in this episode.
