[edit] Fun Facts
[edit] Remarks
- The camera angle is different from Puppet Jam: Bad Jokes and Puppet Jam: Tropical Lazor Beams.
- This is the first time Homestar has acknowledged his rhotacism.
- Strangely enough, however, when Homestar says "It's true" during this scene, he pronounces it properly, instead of saying "it's twue."
- "Accordion" is misspelled as "accordian" on the title card.
