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.
