Trivia
- Clifford mentions a list of family films that Rick Moranis is known for, to which Dr. Phil van Neuter adds Little Shop of Horrors. Clifford says he doesn't know his movies: Little Shop of Horrors isn't a family film. However, Clifford included Parenthood in his own list, a film rated PG-13 by the MPAA for its sexually explicit content; Little Shop of Horrors is also rated PG-13.
- The Shrink-o-Matic Machine was a reference to Moranis' film Honey, I Shrunk the Kids.
