Trivia
- The "Lost in Space" robot was voiced by Dick Tufeld, though uncredited.

Cultural References

- Ćter wears a "Futurama" shirt to the Bi-Mon-Sci-Fi-Con.

- Homer's sleeper hold looks more like a Vulcan nerve pinch from "Star Trek".
- Mark Hamill hollers at Homer to "Use the forks!" to foil Legs' assassination attempt on Mayor Quimby, a parody of "Use the Force", one of the catchphrases from the "Star Wars" film series.
- Fat Tony beating Mayor Quimby with a bat references a scene in the film "The Untouchables" where Al Capone (played by Robert DeNiro) beats one of his henchmen to death with a bat.
Goofs
- When Fat Tony says, "I am not so much disappointed as I am blinded with rage", the dark circles under his eyes disappear.
- When Quimby falls out of the window from the view looking at the building, the window for the floor below is visible, but when the camera angle changes to behind Homer's head the window is gone and only a solid brick wall can be seen all the way to the ground.
- In the final scene, when Homer is carrying Mark Hamil, you can see a person on the ground, whom Homer kicked. However, a person walks in front of him, and when he passes, the person is not there anymore.
