Trivia - According to the DVD commentary for this episode, the all-you-can-eat restaurant sidestory was added to the show after a planned sidestory involving a guest shot by Don Rickles fell through due to miscommunication with the Simpsons staff (someone had told them that Don Rickles wanted to do the show, and he didn't.) There was also another planned sidestory, before the restaurant sidestory, that involved Homer becoming a talented barber, but it was rejected.
- This episode features the first appearance of Captain Horatio McCallister, and the only mention of his real name. This episode also reveals that he isn't a real captain.
- Lionel Hutz calling Homer "the greatest hero in American history" is referenced in the trailer to The Simpsons Movie.
- Clothespins are given to Ruth Powers as a Welcome gift because Springfield has a smell that newcomers aren't used to. This was mentioned in the episode Bart's Friend Falls in Love.

- Mr. & Mrs. Winfield, the Simpson family's little seen neighbors, move away in this episode. They are first seen in episode 3, "Homer's Odyssey", commenting on Homer taking his boulder out for a walk. Mrs. Winfield was seen (and voiced by Tracy Ullman) in "Bart's Dog Gets an F". Marge also mentions Homer getting drunk and making a fool of himself at the Winfields' party in "War of the Simpsons".
- This episode is about one minute shorter than most other Season 4 episodes, at 22 minutes and one second long.
- After the court case when Homer is eating on display a man in the background says "I hear they shaved a gorilla". Dan Castellaneta voiced him with his normal speaking voice.
