==​Cultural References==
*Lifty and Shifty robbing houses during Christmas is an obvious reference "How The Grinch Stole Christmas!". Coincidentally, Lifty, Shifty, and The Grinch are all green in color.
*The episode as a whole could be a reference to Home Alone, since it consists in two thieves who steal on christmas eve, successfully stealing the things of all the houses, but one of their victims ends up defeating them and making them fall in mortal booby traps.
*The scene where Shifty tries to replace the candlestick on the bear trap with a bag of sand is a reference to a similar scene in the Indiana Jones movie "Raiders of the Lost Ark". Unlike Indiana Jones, however, Shifty manages to make the switch without triggering a trap-until his greed leads to a significantly bloodier result.
**Also, if you listen closely, the music right when he grabs the candlestick holder sounds like the theme from Indiana Jones.
*The candle holder that Flippy uses to bait Shifty into a trap bears some similarity to a Menorah, a key item for people who celebrate Hanukkah.
*Flippy wearing the dead Shifty's skin to trick Lifty is a reference to the 1991 horror movie "The Silence of the Lambs".
*Pop and Cub's deaths are similar to Zogg's death from 1000 Ways to Die. Both scenarios involve dying from carbon monoxide poisoning due to fire being set in a tight space.
*Lifty's injury is similar to Green Goblin's death in the 2002 Spider-Man movie, whereas both their chests got impaled and sticked through the wall.
*The scene where Lifty and Shifty sneaks into Flippy's house and steals everything without waking him up might be a reference to the beginning scene of the movie "Over the Hedge".
**Coincidentally, both the movie and this episode came out in 2006.
==Superlatives==
*Pop and Cub's deaths are similar to the possible deaths of multiple characters in Kringle Feast.
*Lifty's death is similar to both his and Shifty's death in The Wrong Side of the Tracks. More surprisingly, the "shredding" sound effects are the exact same in both episodes.
==Production Notes==
*When this episode aired along with Wishy Washy and Who's to Flame? on YouTube, the alternate title for the conglomeration of segments was "Four on the Floor".
*This is the last episode where Aubrey Ankrum voices Pop and Fliqpy.
