Trivia

 * In the closing scene, where John is back on the set of his regualar show Roseanne, the stagehand that welcomes John back to the show is played by Muppeteer Jerry Nelson.
 * In the same scene, Andy and Randy show up to reveal that they work for Roseanne now. John is mortified, and the shrilling strings played to accentuate this, are a nod to Bernard Herrmann's classic Psycho score.
