Cultural references

The scene at the beginning of the episode, in which the people of Springfield mob the Kwik-E-Mart, is based on the events of the 1992 Los Angeles riots. Todd is wearing a Butthole Surfers shirt, however the censors only allowed "Buttho Surfers". Jay Sherman from "The Critic", who had previously appeared in "A Star Is Burns", can also be seen in the mental hospital repeatedly saying, "It stinks".

Reception

Marge's line, "Dear God, this is Marge Simpson. If you stop this hurricane and save our family, we will be forever grateful and recommend you to all our friends," was cited by journalist Mark Pinsky as an example of how "Simpson family members are both defined and circumscribed by religion." [Victoria Combe, "Praise and glory to the God-fearing Homer Simpson: Chaotic cartoon family criticized as dysfunctional is defined by religion, journalist says in book," "Standard", St. Catharines, Ontario: August 31, 2001, pg. A.1.FRO.] Journalist Ben Rayner speculated that some fans, whom he called "nerds," would want an explanation of "how Barney fit through that tiny door to the 'master bedroom' in the rebuilt Flanders family home." [Ben Rayner, "Offering up the goods on Springfield's finest; The Simpsons have breached the boundaries of animation. Today a director details how they do it, writes Ben Rayner," "Toronto Star", October 30, 2005, pg. C.06.]
