Near the end of the episode, the song "Mama He's Crazy", by The Judds, plays in the background. Frances Randell (Kevin's mother) is played by Naomi Judd.
Dick (John Lithgow) asks Leon (Ian Lithgow) about his relationship with his father. In real life, the two actors are, indeed, father and son.
The song at the end of the episode, played while the Solomons are sitting on the roof, is Wilson Pickett's 1966 hit "634-5789 (Soulsville, U.S.A.)", a soul song written by Eddie Floyd and Steve Cropper.
David DeLuise plays one of Dick's recurring students, "Bug". The subtitles on Netflix show Dick referring to him as "Bobby". However, the end credits for the episode credit him as "Bug".
Pitman is missing from Dick's classroom in this episode. The other usual students, Caryn, Bug, and Leon, are present and in their usual seats. Pitman returns a couple of episodes later, at the beginning of Season 2 ("See DIck Continue to Run").
