Trivia:

The original air date for this episode is disputed. The very same sources that place "The Green Hornet: The Hornet and the Firefly (#1.26)" (1967) to December 30, 1966 instead of March 24, 1967 (with December 30 skipped) also switch this with the previous week's "The Green Hornet: Bad Bet on a 459-Silent (#1.19)" (1967).
