For the shot of the Spatula City billboard, the production bought a billboard on a remote stretch of highway. For months afterward, drivers taking the exit would ask nearby businesses about Spatula City. The ad was finally removed after the businesses complained.

Since George's uncle valued the station at $75,000, George essentially sells off 100% of the station in the form of stock. If R.J. got intermediaries to quietly buy a controlling interest, he could shut the station down and save some money. As a cutthroat businessman, he should've realized that immediately... "should've" being the operative word. But his ego here obviously won out over his business acumen, so out of pride he refused to buy into the success of the station/town as he viewed both, in his own words, as "a festering bowl of dog snot".

The Comedy Central version deletes quite a little out of such a short film - mainly bits related to animal cruelty, such as much of the "Raul's Wild Kingdom" scene (involving teaching poodles how to fly) and the punchline of car commercial (the owner threatens to club a baby seal if buyers don't come). Among other bits deleted: a scene regarding gun nuts; part of the scene where Emo Phillips loses a finger in a saw; most of the first "Uncle Nutzy's Clubhouse" scene (probably because the final punchline involves a guy eating dog treats by accident); the part of the "Conan the Librarian" sequence where a guy says he has an overdue library book, and Conan bloodlessly cuts him in half with his sword; a sequence with an elderly lady who knees R.J. Fletcher in the crotch.
