Trivia
- Originally, the episode was going to be the 619th episode of the series, but it got bumped up to 620 with the announcement of Springfield Splendor, which itself would later be moved to an October 8, 2017 airing after The Serfsons was chosen to be the season 29 premiere.
- This episode uses the old Season 3 version of the theme song, which features violins playing (to make them sound like the "Ahh" choir) instead of the synthesized "Ahh" choir. This is one of the newer episodes to use the old Season 3 version of the theme.
