The idea for this came about when Kirkconnell, James approached Cartoon Network with the concept for a show he performed earlier in Canada and Philadelphia. Kirkconnell would tell a traditional fairy tale or folk story, and an illustrator would draw the key plot points on paper. The network was not particularly interested, but the producers of Coast to Coast latched onto the idea, and had Kirkconnell rework the format for two previous Space Ghost episodes.
Only the "Banjo" segment of this episode would be repackaged in the following episode "Le Livre d'Histoire".
Despite being featured in the volume one DVD box set for the series, it was not included on HBO Max for unknown reasons.
