1. This installment may have taken the shortest time to complete (3 or 4 days). 

2. It's true that Burt Ward is the only Wayne Manor resident who was never involved in a Disney movie. Adam West was in Chicken Little, Alan Napier was in The Sword in the Stone, and Madge Blake was a live reference model in Sleeping Beauty. But Burt had no association with the Walt Disney Company whatsoever. Unless you count his wife Tracy selling its merchandise for her father's business before she met him. 

3. Ross is played by Foxy, Jeremy Clyde's actual dog. He's also named after Patty Lane's brother Ross from "The Patty Duke Show". 

4. The crocodile that Brer Bear mentions, Three-Beans Barker, gets his name from one of my favorite villains in my other stories, Two-Bits Benedict.

5. In the original "Bunk'd" episode, Lou says that when she played fetch the stick with her puppy/wolf, the dog came back with a rabbit. We had to replace that with a duck in this version because if Ross came back with a rabbit, it would be tough for Brer Rabbit. 

6. The Brers' description of Ross's behavior is reflective of my own dogs' behavior lately. Wally has been attacking Milty very viciously and Milty has been having stomach problems so he's been extremely incontinent. 

 7. Burt has the least amount of screen time in this installment and he only says one 'holy' saying unlike the others. 

8. This is the second time Burt's wife is mentioned since Twisted Peppermint

9. It's revealed in this installment that Brer Fox has a crush on Lesley Gore. My dad actually wanted Jeremy to say "that's disturbing" when it's mentioned, but I refused to let it happen. 

10. My dad did the sound effect for Ross's bark. He tried to do the wolf howl, but it sounded awful, so I replaced that with Chuck's howl in the original "Bunk'd" episode. 

11. This installment has a similar title to Chili Dogs to acknowledge the fact that they go together sequentially. Jeremy also makes a connection to Chili Dogs when he mentions the death of Patty's previous dog Hal. 

12. Originally titled Chili Cheese Dogs

13. It's true that Burt used to spar with Bruce Lee. They actually lived in the same apartment building. Burt actually claimed at his Hollywood Star ceremony that Bruce is one of two people he misses "terribly". The second one was Adam West, of course. 

14. Brer Bear references the true story of when Ringo Starr predicted that Chad & Jeremy's A Summer Song would be a hit in America rather than a hit. And yeah, Chad probably would have been grateful if Ringo said it out of pity, because when Jeremy tells the story and gets to how Chad felt during the judging, he emphasizes the word miserable. 

15. The theme song for this installment is Patty Duke's version of the Beatles' Yesterday

16. For the background in the scene where the gang finds Ross in the woods, I used the forest in Sleeping Beauty

17. The irony of a Princess and the Frog coupon is how that movie is the one replacing Song of the South on Splash Mountain. 

18. Chad saying "jolly good" and Brer Bear replying "real jolly good" references a moment in Chad & Jeremy's "Laredo" episode where Dudley Leicester says "how jolly" and Joe Riley replies "real jolly".
