*Lisa says she wants to see a giant squid attack a sperm whale, even though she is an ecologist in later episodes.
*Marge does not appear in this episode.
*This short marks the first appearance of Springfield Aquarium.
*Bart's encounter with the shark appears to be a prototype for the shark chase scene in the 1989 animated Disney movie The Little Mermaid. Ironically, Bart's voice Nancy Cartwright would have a voice role in this movie as well. http://www.filmreference.com/film/35/Nancy-Cartwright.html
*Bart later showboated in an aquarium in the episode "Brake My Wife, Please", where this time he had no lucky clothes, which resulted in him being attacked by its inhabitants as he was escaping.
*In this short, Bart has lucky red trunks. When The Simpsons became its own television show, he has a lucky red hat.
*This is one of the rare times where Lisa said a swear word that being "Hell".
*The first two acts from this short later appeared before the intro at the beginning of "Lisa Gets the Blues" to celebrate 30 years of this short.
