Revision as of 23:25, 4 October 2014

  • This is the first full-length crossover between Family Guy and The Simpsons. In fact, it is the first time the Simpson family has been fully-featured on another show since separating from The Tracey Ullman Show.
  • The Simpsons theme is heard throughout the episode while the Griffins are in Springfield.
  • "Pour Some Sugar On Me" by Def Leppard plays during Peter and Homer's stolen car wash.
  • Peter's remarks about carrying Bob Belcher is a swipe at the somewhat ratings-challenged series.[1] His later remark about Cleveland attempting to fly solo is yet another jab at the cancellation of his own spinoff.
Packedcourtroom
  • Peter's fight with Homer is an homage to his fights with Ernie The Giant Chicken.
  • A caricature of Simpsons creator Matt Groening can be seen in rear left side of the courtroom. Family Guy creator Seth MacFarlane can be seen on the right.
  • Harry Shearer was the only cast member of The Simpsons who did not reprise any of his characters. Most of his characters remain silent, with the exception of Lenny, who was voiced by an imitator.
  • Homer tells Peter to say hello to Maude Flanders, and Peter tells Homer to say hello to Muriel Goldman, both references to characters who have died on their shows.
  • Roger from American Dad! makes an appearance on Kang and Kodos' ship during Peter and Homer's fight. As he gets sucked out of the ship, he says "Thanks for having us!". American Dad! aired its last episode on FOX the previous week.
  • During the courtroom scene, most of the Quahog characters are paired with their Springfield counterparts: Tom Tucker with Kent Brockman, Consuela with Bumblebee Man, Cleveland with Carl, Seamus with the Sea Captain, etc.. Of particular note is James Woods being paired with James Woods.
  • Judge Fred Flintstone finds that Pawtucket Patriot Ale as well as Duff are both an imitation of his Budrock beer.
  • Stewie claims Bart sounds like a girl, a nod to Nancy Cartwright, who provides his voice.
  • In the end credits, instead of having the guest voice actors in alphabetical order as usual, the voice actors from The Simpsons appear first in alphabetical order, followed by the other guest voice actors in alphabetical order.
  • Episode director Peter Shin worked on The Simpsons from 1990-1995 as a layout artist.
  • Peter complains that his show has never won an Emmy. While Family Guy itself has come up empty, its crew has received five for their individual work.
  • It is revealed by Marge that Lois doesn't wear a bra in this episode.
  • The Wilhelm Scream can be heard when Peter and Homer fall into a chemical vat at the power plant.
  • During the end credits, special thanks are given to James L. Brooks, Matt Groening, Al Jean and David Silverman.
