Trivia

 * No Ca$hword played this episode.
 * This episode, along with a random 1978 episode of Jim Perry's Card Sharks, was aired repeatedly during the final days leading up to the launch of the digital subchannel Buzzr.
 * One of the puzzles had "Quaker" as the answer. Coincidentally, one of the fee plugs was for Quaker Corn Bran cereal, shown at the end of this episode. It is unknown if the puzzle was intentionally in response to the fee plug.
