Trivia[]
- While this isn’t Boo-Boo’s final appearance in the series, the episode’s opening sketch “Secret Shutterbug” is the last time we ever get to hear him talk on the show.
- Despite being one-off characters, Gunther and Uta make one last appearance in "Last Train to Gloomsville" where they are seen wolfing a huge plate of sausages when Ruby asks them if they've seen Poe.
- The scene where Frank and Len scream in the mirror while brushing their teeth is possibly a reference to the 1990 film Home Alone.
- This episode is a loosely-based spoof of "Hansel and Gretel".
