ADD NOTES-
Apparently, Tucker is as good in sewing class as he is with computers.
-
Desiree is the second ghost whose human life is revealed, the first was Poindexter in the previous episode, "Splitting Images".
-
The name of this episode must come from Desiree granting wishes and giving people "what they want." Apparently, she also grants wishes when someone says "I want" and not just "I wish."
-
Look Hard: At the very end of the episode, when Sam is bringing Danny & Tucker soup, you can see that Danny is wearing bunny slippers.
-
Butch Hartman probably got the idea for the character of Desiree from his other television show, The Fairly Oddparents, since Cosmo and Wanda AND Desiree all grant wishes when they hear "I wish." The name may also come from the word "desire," which is one letter away from Desiree, and she grants the desire of someone's heart.
-
The control box next to the Fenton Portal keeps on disappearing and appearing throughout the episode.
-
The following wishes were made: 1) Unnamed girl- Cotton candy 2) Dash- To turn into a monster that could crush the other football team single handedly. 3) Paulina- To be as popular as Sayonara Pussycat. 4) Tucker- Ghost powers. 5) Surfer- For his car to fly. 6) Man in suit- For a million dollars.(Ungranted) 7) Danny- For Desiree to disappear inside the thermos.
-
Desiree grants wishes using ghosts: She gives Tucker Ghost Powers, turns Dash into a monster, and in "Memory Blank," she grants wishes the same way besides when she erased Danny's powers.
-
Apparently, Desiree has to be the eaisest ghost to beat since all you have to do is wish that she'd be sucked into the thermos, the same for "Memory Blank," but oddly, in this episode and "Memory Blank," they have a hard time fighting Desiree.
-
This episode marks the first time that Tucker is seen without glasses.
-

Listen Closely: On the P.A. system, a guy announces the name of the movie theater that Danny and Tucker were at, "Googleplex Cinemas." Although in ""13"," Sam and Tucker went to a movie theater called "Amity Park Movie Plex," which looks very similar to Googleplex Cinemas.
-
Look Hard: The girls who were fawning over Sayonara Pussycat can be seen watching "Dead Teacher IV," which is ironic since they both seemed very eager to see "Sayonara Pussycat."
-
Desiree is the second ghost that has no legs. The first ghost was Technus in "Attack of the Killer Garage Sale."

Look Hard: There is a poster above the water fountain that Mr. Lancer was at that says, "Read, Don't be an Idiot!"
-
Apparently, Paulina is not fully satisfied with her popularity.

Danny & Tucker: Fighting Scene The scene in the science classroom where Tucker shoots ecto-blasts at Danny followed by Danny dodging each of them in slow motion seems to be taken from The Matrix.

Tucker: (To Danny) Yeah, what's the dizzle, Fizzle? Tucker's language by using words like, "dizzle" and "fizzle" is a form of slang invented by Frankie Smith in his 1982 single, "The Duble-Dutch Bus." In the song, he placed "izs" in the middle of word (thus making the word, "phantom," "phanizstom") and used the word, "izzle" to replace the last letters of a word (thus making "Fenton," "Fizzle" and "deal," "dizzle"). This style of slang has been popularized by hip-hoppers and rappers, most notably Snoop Dogg, E-40, and Missy Elliot.
