  • While talking to Carla in the car, Richie complains that "b-u-t" are the three most insiduous "words" in the English language. He probably meant to say "letters," because he goes on to refer to "but" as the "one word that separates people from their dreams." edit »
  • The modeling industry may have high standards, but it's still a little hard to buy David (Bruce Willis) as the "average, run of the mill guy" the man running the ad campaign seems to want. edit »
  • Music: "(Love Is Like a) Heatwave" by Martha & the Vandellas; David sings "Blue Velvet" by Bobby Vinton; "Girls, Girls, Girls" by Elvis Presley; "Sex Machine, Pt. 1" by James Brown; "I Only Have Eyes for You" by the Flamingoes; "The Shoop Shoop Song (It's In His Kiss)"; Richie sings "Chapel of Love" by the Dixie Cups; "Take Time to Know Her" by Percy Sledge edit »
  • In a sketch at the beginning of the episode, the opening theme begins without any vocals. Maddie and David discover that no one told Al Jarreau that the show had moved to Sunday nights (they pretend that he shows up to sing the song live with a band before each show). Maddie and David each try singing the song, before Herbert saves the day. edit »
