Trivia

• This is the second of three episodes where Sarah Chalke appears as Becky Conner during this season. However, she also previously appeared in this season in "Halloween: the Final Chapter" but playing a different character.
• In a bit of potential foreshadowing, Roseanne jokingly suggest that next year, Dan's life insurance policy gets cashed in to fund a cruise, and Dan warns that this may not be a good idea. This comes to fruition in "The Wedding", when Dan suffers a heart attack. Dan's warning further foreshadows the revelation within Season 9's "Into That Good Night, Part 2" in which we learn Dan actually dies from his heart attack.
• Bob Fuller (Bellhop) makes his third appearance. He had previously played different characters in the Season 8 episodes "The Thrilla Near the Vanilla Extract" (playing a grocery clerk), "We're Going to Disney World (playing a Airline Steward) and would continue to do so in many more episode. He will also appear in the Season 8 episode "Morning Becomes Obnoxious" (playing a Makeup artist), and the following Season 9 episodes "Home Is Where the Afghan Is" (playing a Caterer) and "The Truth Be Told" (playing a Clothing Salesman). He also served as a production assistant from the following Season 7 episode "Follow the Son" to the Season 9 finale "Into That Good Night, Part 2".
• Despite being credited, Lecy Goranson (Becky Conner) does not appear.
