Trivia

  • In the show's entire 17-year run, this is the very first full-length episode centered around Groundskeeper Willie. He was, however, the central character in "Nightmare on Evergreen Terrace", one of the three segments of "Treehouse of Horror VI", and had a large amount of screentime devoted to him in "Girly Edition"—in which his shack was also destroyed by Bart's shenanigans and left him temporarily homeless.
  • Connections: This episode covers the same topic as "My Fair Lady." This episode is also somewhat similar to the season 11 episode "Pygmoelian", in the sense that it features another secondary character getting a 'makeover' or 'new look', last time it was Moe Szyslak. "My Fair Lady" is also a retelling of Pygmalion.
  • In the gym teacher's datebook, "Double Bombardment" is listed on Christmas.
  • The episode was rated TV-PG for drug references, violence, coarse language and sexual references.
  • In this episode's end credits ,instead of the normal music there was a medley of the songs heard
  • The man in the commercial sits down and the music stops, but when homer and Eli Stern VI are have stopped talking, he is up again and the music is playing
