** After Homer renames himself to Max Power, he says "Kids, there's three ways to do things- the right way, the wrong way and the Max Power way". A year after this episode, the ''WesternAnimation/MaxSteel'' TV series premiered and its similarly named hero had "We're doing this the Max Steel Way" as a catchphrase.

** A joke is made about how network TV loves cartoons because they don't have to pay the actors well and they can be replaced (as seen with Ned Flanders being voiced by Karl Wiedergott instead of Creator/HarryShearer). This is a triple whammy wince-inducing moment:
*** This episode aired around the time that the voice actors and FOX were in the middle of a brutal pay dispute and FOX threatened to have all the major voice actors replaced with [[TheOtherDarrin sound-alikes]] if they didn't agree to FOX's offer.
*** In May 2015, Harry Shearer (the voice actor for Ned Flanders -- and other characters [[note]] Mr. Burns, Smithers, Kent Brockman, Principal Skinner... pretty much anyone who isn't voiced by Creator/DanCastellaneta, Creator/HankAzaria, Creator/NancyCartwright, Karl Weidergott, Chris Edgerly, Creator/PhilHartman, or a celebrity guest star [[/note]]) announced that he was leaving the show (which had just been renewed for seasons 27, 28, and part of 29), with no word yet on whether Shearer's characters will be written out or [[TheOtherDarrin have a new voice actor.]] Thankfully, in July 2015, the producers announced they'd struck a deal with Shearer, who would stay with the show.
*** In Spain, this was the last season where Homer was voiced by Carlos Revilla, who was also in charge of the translation, adaptation and casting. After his death between seasons 11 and 12, the dub's quality took a nosedive and many other actors left his company or retired.
