Fun Facts
Trivia
- The animation style is much more loosely stylized than it was in the teaser at the beginning of senior prom. Also the background has changed from a reflective red background with horizontal lines to a dull flat red with lighter shades in circles towards the top of the screen.
Remarks
- The Poopsmith and the Hornblower are now the only two of the King's servants not to have a voice.
- The Bishop is now clad in purple, the traditional color of Lent the Christian liturgical season during which this short was released.
- The perfume ball disintergrates with the same sound effect as Sickly Sam does in the Old-Timey cartoons.
Goofs
- When the King of Town answers the door, the chef isn't standing on a tongue.
Inside References
- This is a reference to senior prom, where the King of Town gets his own cartoon show that is quickly preempted by Strong Bad's email program.
- This is another mention of pizza.
Real World References
- This cartoon is similar to the South Park episode "Butters' Very Own Episode," which was also a cartoon featuring a character disliked by the majority of the other regulars presented as if it was its own seperate TV show, complete with unique opening credits and theme song.
- Beezos are henchmen of Wart in the NES game Super Mario Bros. 2.
- The animation resembles that of Olive, the Other Reindeer.
