Behind the scenes
- The estimated year on the town's sign is MMMMMIX, B.C.
- Broadrock is a parody of Broadway.
- Philo Quartz, the boy scientist from The Flintstone Kids TV series, is now a police officer.
- While not named in the movie, the end credits give Mr. Brickens first name as Charles, making him a full parody of Charles Dickens.
- This is the final time that Don Messick voices Bamm-Bamm, before his death in 1997.
- This is also the final time that B.J. Ward voices Betty.
Errors
- Jesus didn't exist in prehistoric times, yet here we are.
- A Christmas Carol is British in origin, so it being redone as an American play makes little to no sense.
