    • Trivia
      Steve Martin was the first choice to play George Newton. John Candy, Danny DeVito, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Jeff Goldblum, Rick Moranis, and Robin Williams were later considered for the part.
    • Goofs
      When Ted and Rice are playing Super Mario Brothers 3, they are both mashing away on controllers; however, when it shows the close-up of the screen, we see that they're only playing a one-player game at the time.
    • Quotes

      Alice Newton: I don't think words for parts of the body make very good names.

      Emily Newton: He's got one of those, I looked.

      Alice Newton: I'm sure he does but I don't think Daddy would want to stand on the porch at night yelling that out.

      Emily Newton: But that's what you call Uncle Richard.

    • Crazy credits
      As the end credits finish, a short scene plays of Beethoven standing on a rock, silhouetted against a sunset. He barks as the screen fades to black.
