== Notes ==
* This is Frank Tashlin's first cartoon with Warner Bros. as a director. He had briefly been an animator with the studio in 1933 but left after a dispute with Leon Schlesinger over rights to a comic strip Tashlin had created. He would stay with the studio until 1938, departing to become a writer for Disney, but would return once more in 1942.
* This cartoon is Carl Stalling's first role as a musical director. He came to Warner Bros. from the Ub Iwerks studio and would stay for over twenty years.
* This cartoon is noted for its dramatic camera angles and filmic techniques typically seen in live-action movies, something Tashlin specialized in. Later, when he moved to directing live-action pictures, many would note that he brought cartoon elements to his pictures.
* This is the official last cartoon to use the old "That's all Folks!" script style introduced since "The Fire Alarm" (1935), although it does get used twice in "Milk and Money" (1936) and "Porky's Duck Hunt" (1937) for their special ending titles.
* Some animation from this cartoon was reused in "Chicken Jitters" and "Wise Quacks" (1939).
* When Porky Pig rushes to the barn, a cart with the name "Millar" written on it is shown in the background, a reference to gag writer Melvin Millar.
