New Kid on the Block/References

== A tribute to the film ==
* The scene where the letters are poured out in the courtroom is a tribute to the 1947 film Christmas comedy-drama .
== Citations ==
*The name of the episode is a play on the old expression "new kid on the block". It could be referring to the boy band New Kids On The Block, who had been popular a few years before this episode, or to the Barenaked Ladies song which was popular before that, or directly to the expression itself.
*The scene where Moe is about to cut Jimbo when he and Laura are making out is a reference to the rule in horror movies that when the couple makes love they get attacked or killed by the monster or the killer. 
== Trivia ==
*The theme song version from Season 3 is used again in this episode along with the couch gag from "Bart Gets an "F"".
*The "Northern Exposure" theme plays as Homer chases away a moose from the Simpsons' trash.
*The TV show Hunks is a parody of FOX's Studs.
*In the flashback when Jimbo puts Bart's head in the toilet, Bart's shirt is light green (rather than the usual orange). So it is likely that these are younger versions of Bart and Jimbo.
*This episode marks the debut of Captain Horatio McCallister (The Sea Captain), the owner of The Frying Dutchman.
*The shot of Homer drooling at the commercial for The Frying Dutchman is recycled from "Bart's Friend Falls in Love" (the scene where Homer is drooling over a food commercial) and is mirror flipped in this episode.
*One of the WB's ads for the show, titled "Homie: the Buffet Slayer" (a parody of the series Buffy the Vampire Slayer, complete with its theme music being used for the purposes of the ad.) featured scenes from this episode (specifically the scenes where Homer took the "all you can eat buffet" slogan for the Frying Dutchman literally).
*This episode reveals that Marge has a seafood allergy.
*One of two episodes in a row where Homer is "on display" and someone reacts with "He's hideous!" This also happened in "Marge Gets a Job" when Bart (unknowingly) shows him off as "Cue Ball, the Man With No Hair!" But this time he's aware he's "on display."
== Goofs ==
* When Dolph says, "That chick's messin' with our minds!", he sounds like Jimbo (who is voiced by Pamela Hayden). Dolph's usual voice actor is Tress MacNeille.
* According to Bart's phone call to Moe's Tavern, the Simpson family's original address was 1094 Evergreen Terrace, rather than 742. The family could've changed the number in their address later in the show to 742, or this could've been a continuity error.
* When Moe comes into the Simpsons' house and scares Jimbo, Bart is missing most of his torso.
*Judge Snyder’s skin is yellow rather than brown.
*At the beginning of the episode, the moose loses its tail for a frame.
*When Homer is relaxing in the kiddie pool, one of the blue dots turns purple for a frame.
