Cultural references

  • The title of the episode and the opening scene of the episode is a reference to Citizen Kane. Rosebud is the final word of the protagonist in the film, Charles Foster Kane. The scene where Burns throws snow globes on his bedroom's floor and a reflection of a shattered one where Smithers enters the room mirrors from the film, with a nurse entering the room of the late Kane.
  • Shows that Mr. Burns interrupted include Barney the Dinosaur, Soul Mass Transit System, and Bumblebee Man.
  • The Ramones appear, performing for Mr. Burns and then insult him.
  • Mr. Burns has a painting of a naked Mark Twain.
  • Adolf Hitler and Charles Lindburgh both own Bobo after he is abandoned.
  • After Burns is taken away from his family they remark that "At least we still have his brother George." George has an uncanny resemblance and mannerisms as comedian George Burns.

Trivia

  • A picture of Australia is shown on a television, showing many Australians congregating together holding candles, which spell out "Monty Burns" from a space-view. However, the picture of Australia hardly looks like Australia and isn't curved.

Goofs

  • In one scene, Dr. Nick has brown hair and not black.
