The kitchen door leading to the outside of the Taylor house is on the driveway side of the house. Yet in this episode, once Andy, Barney and Opie go out this door, it opens to the back yard. In season 6, the layout of the kitchen was corrected by moving the door from the side of the house to the back of the house.
This episode features a rare look at the Taylor's back yard.
Mr. McBeevee has twelve extra hands.
The episode titles of the first episodes of every season contain Opie's name, except for Season 1, Episode 1 and this season, Season 3, Episode 1.
Mr. McBevee drives a 1960 Ford F-100, a model manufactured from 1960 - 1968.
