Behind the scenes

 * With every episode's title card, one of the gang announces the guest star, which is Fred this time.
 * Shaggy says "Zoinks" three times.
 * Daphne says "Jeepers" twice.
 * Macklemore has photos from "What a Night for a Knight" and "Hassle in the Castle." The first of which is of the gang looking up after inspecting a book, and the second is of the gang unmasking Bluestone the Great.

Errors

 * The gang refers to Macklemore being an actor, despite the fact he only had one true acting credit before this episode, which coincidentally was also a caricature of himself.
 * When the whole gang reacts to Macklemore being pulled into the ground, Velma's lenses are missing.
 * The umpires from the present and past look the same.
 * The original cracks on the baseball collectible store are gone when the camera pans out for the full explosion. The baseball image also changes from white to light blue.
 * Macklemore wanted to say the "meddling kids" line since he was a kid, which only makes sense from a real-world perspective, as within the cartoon world, Macklemore is older than Mystery Inc.
