Trivia

 * For nearly 13 years before the revival, this is the final appearances of Chuckie, Phil, Lil, Kimi, Chas, and Betty.
 * Chuckie and Didi suffered the most from no television. Didi went onto a knitting sycophant, and Chuckie became absolutely smarter. Other side effects from the TV deprivation were:
 * Dil is hyperactive from more sleep than he usually gets.
 * Stu and Phil are overall nervous wrecks.
 * Kimi's temper shortens from desperation.
 * Lil acquires a gum addiction.
 * Dil asks Didi, "You also had cars with no seat belts. Was that a good idea, too?" However, Didi couldn't have been born anytime before 1966 (Then she would be in her 50's).
 * When Chuckie mentions Newton's Second Law of Motion, he gets it wrong as acceleration is force divided by the mass, not force times mass.
 * The beginning of the episode is a parody of the 1960's comedy .
 * Ending Tagline: "On second thought, no TV ever." - Didi
 * This is the fifth and the last time Chuckie's hair is smoothed down. The first time was in "It's Cupid, Stupid", the second was in "Lucky 13", the third in "A DeVille House Divided", and the fourth in "Petition This!".
 * Before the Finsters' TV time is taken away, Chuckie and Kimi appear to be watching "Three Jacks and a Beanstalk".
 * Kira was mentioned by Kimi, but she did not appear in this episode.
 * Seeing how the pool was unfinished, this episode takes place after the events of "Curse of Reptar".
