Behind the scenes

  • This is Jabberjaw's first appearance in the Laff-A-Lympics TV series, he would later go on to become a recurring guest star in the series.

Errors

  • As the Teen Angels pass Snagglepuss, Dee Dee is mistakenly miscolored Caucasian when she should be African American. In the next shot, her skin color is corrected.
  • On the points chart before the fox hunt, Scooby is miscolored gray.
  • Just after competing in the Big Ben contest, Dinky appears cheering in the Rottens crowd when he should be at the base of Big Ben.
  • Both Rottens and Yogis tied for second with 65 points, but then why at the award ceremony did the Rottens have the bronze medal?
