Trivia

  • A plant next to the couch grows to maturity, then dies as the Simpsons watch hours on end of cable.
  • The Flanders' doorbell plays the theme song from the 1960's claymation show Davey and Goliath.
  • Sign outside the church: "God, the Original Love Connection."
  • The broadcaster who announces during the pre-fight coverage, is the same man who announced Todd Flanders and Bart's putt-putt golf showdown in episode 2-6, "Dead Putting Society."
  • One of the shows on television has the lines, "Lemonade? Please.", which sounds similar to one of the non-violent cartoons in "Itchy & Scratchy & Marge".

Movie Moments

  • The opening scene where Moses shatters tablets is similar to Charlton Heston in The Ten Commandments.
  • Homer jumping in the street to get the attention of the corrupt cable workman driving his van is based upon a scene in North by Northwest.

Notes

  • The blackboard gag refers to "The Bartman", a dance created by a Simpsons 1991 music video "Do the Bartman".
  • This episode won the Best Animated Program award at the Emmys in 1991.

Goofs
