==Trivia==
*This episode was subsequently named "President's Day Nightmare" by its producers, Williams Street.
*The curtains behind the photos of the cartoon creator and villains seen in the intro were background graphics used by both the US and European versions of TNT at the time, and also was used by Turner Home Entertainment for their "Feature Presentation" bumpers (including certain Cartoon Network releases). 
*The first What A Cartoon short, The Powerpuff Girls in "Meat Fuzzy Lumkins" made its premiere during this episode.
*The Council of Doom, who act as judges, is a group of villains from the original Space Ghost series which originally consisted of Moltar, Zorak, Brak, Black Widow, Metallus and Creature King.
*Craig McCracken mentioned on Twitter that Mike Lazzo said the Powerpuff Girls were going to win, and wanted him to do the swimsuit thing, however he pleased. So Craig rented an ol’ timey suit, bought all the swim gear he could think of, and they shot it in the Hanna-Barbera mix stage. https://twitter.com/CrackMcCraigen/status/1629891576196661248
