== Censorship ==
* The Nickelodeon version of this cartoon cuts the part where, as Bessie is "birthing" bottles of milk, one of them turns out to be a bottle of chocolate milk with "I Wish I Was in Dixie" plays in the background and Bessie and Porky bashfully look away (the joke being that Bessie "birthed" a black child and, back when this cartoon was made, a white woman birthing a black child was considered socially taboo).https://web.archive.org/web/20240229055409/https://www.intanibase.com/gac/looneytunes/censored-p.aspx
== Notes ==
* This is the final short where Chuck Jones was an assistant director; eventually he would become an official director after Frank Tashlin's departure later in 1938.
** It is also the final short to use the alternate version of the 1937–38 opening theme of "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down" since "Porky's Double Trouble".
* In the computer-colorized version, the final two shots are from the redrawn colorized version.
* Part of this cartoon would later be used in Bugs vs. Daffy: Battle of the Music Video Stars.
* The poster in the barn depicting "Bull Bontana" is a reference to Lewis "Bull" Montana, a wrestler, boxer, and actor whose career spanned the silent era of film into the 1930s.
* This film was copyrighted on 27 December 1937.https://books.google.com/books?id=41ljAAAAIAAJ&q=daffy+duck#v=snippet&q=%22Porky's%20Poppa%22&f=false
