Notes

add »
This could have possibly been a pilot episode for a spin-off show about a diner, because there are many characters in the diner and much of the show takes place in the diner.

Also, this episode was filmed the day before it aired, so that the characters in the diner could talk about fresh current events. Presumably the idea for the spinoff was to do this every week. (edit)
