Warner Bros. was the original intended movie studio who made and were the original studio distributor who were to release this film under its original title "Prime Time". However, studio executives declared it unreleasable. Cannon Films later took over distribution and eventually released it under the new title of "American Raspberry".
The "Manny's Nymphs" segment was a spoof of the TV series Charlie's Angels (1976) which was still currently being broadcast when the movie debuted.
Final theatrical feature film directed by Bradley R. Swirnoff. He had previously directed another sketch comedy movie which was 'Tunnel Vision' (1976).
One of the sketch anthology films released during the 70s along with The Groove Tube (1974), Tunnel Vision (1976), The Kentucky Fried Movie (1977) and Coming Attractions (1978).
