NOTES (2)
ADD NOTES
- This episode probably features a piglet puppet instead of the real thing because a live one would have made too much noise to be handled for taping.
  EDIT SHARE
- Beakman only gets one question and fact out in Beakmania before the challenge.
  EDIT SHARE
ALLUSIONS (2)
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Lester's style during the sound frequency segment (and the closing song) is based on The Blues Brothers, the famous 1980 film. Senta Moses (Phoebe) was a dancing extra in that movie.
  EDIT SHARE
- A. Whitney Brown (mentioned in Beak-mania intro) is a comedian probably best known for his recurring appearance on Saturday Night Live in the 1980s.
