This is the first filmed episode featuring Robbie Rist as Cousin Oliver, Carol's 8-year-old nephew. His appearance in the show is widely considered by fans as the moment when the series "jumped the shark" (that is, irrecoverably went into declining quality).
During Peter's simultaneous dates, the music alternates between the William Tell theme from "The Cincinnati Kids" and the oft-heard "Romeo & Juliet" tune.
Mike's boss's first name is Ed, according to his niece, one of Peter's dates.
Not available on streaming services such as Amazon Prime or Paramount + due to music clearance issues.
Christopher Knight appears in a dual role.
