Behind the scenes

 * The episode title is a play on the phrase, "Live and let die."
 * The Professor built Dynamo in "Uh Oh Dynamo."
 * Chuck McCann isn't credited for voicing Junior. It's possible it may not have been him or it was archived.

Errors

 * Junior's voice sounds deeper than it usually is, so it's possible it was meant for Bossman, but Junior was animated to mouth his lips by mistake.
