Trivia

  • As of this episode, The Simpsons has tied Gunsmoke as the longest-running television series.
  • After overeating, Homer asks for the nearest vomitorium. In reality, a "vomitorium" was a term in Ancient Rome for a place where spectators would exit from an event such as a gladiator battle.

Cultural References

  • In the opening credits, the title of The Flintstones was shown instead of The Simpsons.
  • The title of this episode is a reference to the film "Schultze Gets the Blues".
  • Bart is forced to dress as Little Orphan Annie, complete with his pupils being painted over with white paint, referencing to the show's odd animation style, of not giving pupils to their characters.
  • Homer tells the kids about how their show will have outranked Gunsmoke in the next episode. Bart suggests they factor in Gunsmoke's radio shows, which ruins the moment.

Continuity

  • A picture of Lisa with Bleeding Gums from "Moaning Lisa" is shown.
