Behind the scenes

The title is a reference to the Shakespeare poem Much Ado About Nothing. You're welcome.
In real-life, saying "Macbeth" in a theater is considered bad luck, so the play is referred to as "Scottish Play."
Quick Draw ironically appears when Penelope recites Richard the Third; "A horse, a horse, a kingdom for a horse."
Snagglepuss is voiced by Tom Kenny in this episode, although he is usually voiced by Billy West.
