Behind the scenes
- Dr. Cutler has been modified from the Captain Cutler character in the Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! episode "A Clue for Scooby Doo". The title of doctor was supposed to be one of many different titles Captain Cutler would use in a recurring joke, although this didn't play out as originally conceived.
Errors
- Dr. Cutler is credited as Captain Cutler, although given that the "doctor" part of his name was part of an unrealized joke, it may not have been a mistake after all.
Everlasting influence
Captain Cutler had a cameo in "The People vs. Fred Jones" and a much larger role in "The Curse of Half-Beard's Booty".
