Production

Development

Phil leaving the firm (and eventually being killed off) is full of inside jokes about his portrayer Colbert having to leave Harvey Birdman to star in his own show, The Colbert Report. The bus that kills Phil also advertises The Colbert Report. Reducto is also killed by a clown car for the same reason.

Filming

Music

The score was composed by Michael Kohler.

Release

Dates are in order of release:

  • United States: October 15, 2006 on Adult Swim (Cartoon Network)

Behind the scenes

  • Harvey packs his suitcase with his dress from "Evolutionary War."
  • The front of the Sebben & Sebben building says "An AOL-Time Warner Co." despite them having already departed ways.
  • Phil and Aunt Phyllis got married in "Return of Birdgirl."
  • Poots & bladders, Scribble, and Clueless are parodies of chutes and Ladders, Scrabble, and Clue.
  • Phil's gravestone marks 1964 as his birth, which would make him 42. Although since this would also make him 3 years old in Birdman.
  • The gravestone also doesn't include the year of his death, perhaps because he came back in "The Death of Harvey."

Errors

  • Ol' Dirty Carny is spelled Old Dirty Carny.
  • DeLisle is credited for voicing Debbie even though she doesn't appear and her voice doesn't come through the intercom.
