- At one point, Tamika shouts, "Phil, stop this crazy thing!" which is a reference to The Jetsons.
- When the kids sans Kam vacate the scene the second time, Kam breaks the fourth wall by realizing that everyone leaves while he is talking and that he keeps talking when everyone is gone, then looks at the camera and exclaims, "What? Now you can cut away!" This is abruptly interrupted by the scene changing to Sunny's house.
- In the scene where the kids visit Sunny's house to talk things out with him and Bullfrog, if one looks closely, his doormat has music notes to presumably the theme song.
