  • We learn Comic Book Guy's real name is Jeff Albertson.
  • With 23.1 million viewers, this episode is one of the highest-rated episodes in the show's history.
  • Homer is called a "jerkass" by a sports commentator. This is a possible reference to "Jerkass Homer", which is what many internet fans called Homer during the Scully era (Seasons 9-12)
  • Ned is dressed as the Devil in his film in the same way he appeared as the Devil in "Treehouse of Horror IV".
  • Quarterback Tom Brady, who made a cameo in this episode, led the New England Patriots to victory in Super Bowl XXXIX, which aired immediately before this episode.
  • Bart's treehouse is located beside the house while Homer was throwing trash cans at Mario.

Goofs
