Mary Jo Pehl, of the Cinematic Titanic created by Mystery Science Theater 3000 (1988) creator Joel Hodgson, provided humorous commentary for this short during a RiffTrax Live in theaters, which reunited the entire MST3K. Before the short began she noted that the "dad from A Christmas Story (1983)" is in the cast: dad being Darren McGavin.
