Cultural References

• The title of this episode is an obvious parody of the film Mr. Smith Goes to Washington, which was also parodied in "Mr. Lisa Goes to Washington".
• Some of the photoshopped images of Krusty feature him as: Neil Armstrong, the soldiers at Iwo Jima, the Tank Man, and Jim Leavelle, the Texas homicide detective who was escorting Lee Harvey Oswald when Oswald was shot and killed.
• Mayor Quimby's quip about his regretting building his lover an opera house after hearing her voice for the first time was a reference to Citizen Kane in Rosebud, specifically his making a similar mistake.

Goofs

• When Krusty says he's on Pepto and Xanex, Marge's pearls and Lisa's dress turn to a light orange.
• Planes can't fly so low.
• Marge says the family haven't had a decent night's sleep in weeks, however flights aren't allowed to operate between certain times (night).
