  • Jacqueline Hinton, who provided an early image of the script for this episode, was scheduled to provide a guest voice. She did not appear in the list of credits for this episode.
  • In addition to Van Halen's "Panama", Ernie the Giant Chicken taunts Peter with Stephen Bishop's "On And On".
  • Brenda Quagmire, Ross Fishman, and Mrs. Wilson appear in Peter's hallucination of deceased characters, despite not having been shown as deceased.
  • Lois turns on the hospital TV to reveal The Simpsons playing. This results in Peter having a hallucination over him and Homer going in and out of the bush, with Homer declaring it a meme when he does so, but Peter claiming it has the opposite effect when he does it. This is a spoof of the scene in The Simpsons episode "Homer Loves Flanders" where Homer sinks into a bush, a gif which is known to be an internet meme.
  • Call backs to past episodes include:
  • Cleveland read three books about baseball player Johnny Bench. Johnny appeared in two episodes of The Cleveland Show as Cleveland's idol.[1]
  • Lois hopes for an airport gate reunion; Brian points out that post-9/11 security has made such meetings difficult.[2]
  • As the family paint the walls during the shuttle explosion, it's not clear if this refers to the 1986 or 2003 explosion.
  • This is the second time where Peter falls into a coma. The first was "Are You There God? It's Me, Peter".
  • Peter says he's never read any books, but reads three stories each in "Three Kings" and "High School English".
