Trivia

In New Zealand when the show was being shown on the TV2 network, the Itchy & Scratchy cartoons over a period of time were continually edited to try and remove as much violent content from them as possible. However around 2000-2001 the network edited out every single Itchy & Scratchy cartoon making the cartoon almost non-existent in the show despite some of the cartoon's content not being as objectionable as the rest.

⇓

Continuity: In the deleted scene where the Be Sharps unveil 'Donut Records', Barney's hair flashes red a couple of times in the close-up of the band. (This counts as a mistake because the scene was fully animated and then cut later.).

Audio problem: At the end of the episode, there is a clip in 1 million AD. Mr Burns gets Bobo (his teddy bear) and says something to him. When he says this the lip sync is a little bit out as the audio doesn't match what he's saying.
