Trivia
Marks the first time 'Eye on Springfield' has been seen since Simpsons' fourth season, showcasing the same title sequence as before. This is notable as Season 14 was produced with digital animation, whereas the degrade in quality seen in the title sequence was due to the fact that up to Season 13, the show was still being produced in traditional cel animation, so it was obvious stock footage was used.

Goofs
During the competition right after the woman smashes the piano, she says "Support the arts!" There is no lip sync, though; her mouth simply opens.

Quotes
Marge Simpson: [Stuck in the basement due to agoraphobia] What to do now? Too crazy to go outside; not crazy enough to have imaginary friends.

Connections
Edited from The Simpsons: Flaming Moe's (1991)
