Behind the scenes

  • Daphne hums the tune to The New Scooby-Doo Movies theme song while she sews Fred's new ascot.
  • Velma says "Jinkies" once.
  • Shaggy says "Zoinks" once.
  • Danger-prone Daphne moments: She finds a narrow gap outside Rung's secret cave, which lets loose a horde of bats.
  • Scooby has every single pizza joint in town tattooed to his tongue. Isn't that a violation of animal rights?
  • Shaggy refers back to the last time they heard Mr. E warn them in "Beware the Beast from Below".
  • The jump the Mystery Machine did while being chased in town by the Ghost Rig is an homage to the Mach 5 in the anime Speed Racer.

Errors

  • Why does Mayor Jones out of the blue make Scooby Chief Officer of Honorary Office of Pizza Affairs? By the way, it's never brought up again after this episode.
