Cultural References[]
- The Couch gag is the Simpson's version of the Harlem Shake; The Homer Shake.
- Grampa wrestling persona "Glamorous Godfrey" is a parody of legendary "heel" wrestler Gorgeous George, who would cheat to win his matches.
- Glamorous Godfrey wrestled Baby Face Palooka. A baby face, as Grampa explained, is pro-wrestling slang for the "good guy" and a palooka is a term for an inept fighter.
Trivia[]
- In The Simpsons: Tapped Out, players could unlock Gorgeous Grandpa for a limited time.
- The syndicated, international and Disney+ versions of this episode cuts the infamous "Homer Shake" couch gag.
Goofs[]
- Mr. Burns being Abe's biggest fan completely contradicts past episodes that have depicted the two as mortal enemies since World War II (as seen on "Raging Abe Simpson and His Grumbling Grandson in: 'Curse of the Flying Hellfish'"). This may be justified as Burns not being aware of Godfrey's real identity until now, coupled with his notoriously erratic memory considering his continued inability to remember Homer's name.
- Marge said she wanted a gay relative, even though she already has one (her sister Patty) as seen on "There's Something About Marrying". Considering she didn't handle it well when Patty came out (despite being supportive of gay relationships up to that point), it may be that she'd prefer the gay relative to be an in-law.
