Trivia[]
- This was the last episode to use traditional cel animation before the switch to digital ink and paint.
- This episode once won the '.Com Pick' chosen by viewers online for Cartoon Cartoon Fridays on January 12th, 2001.
- Similarly to "In Your Dreams", Johnny and Carl are the only characters featured in the episode outside of the story sequences. Bunny Bravo and Pops appear and speak, but only as their caveman ancestor counterparts.
Episode Connections[]

- After his tale, the lumberjack asks him "None of that story is true, is it?".
- Johnny is chased by the lumberjack queen's mother, similarly to how Carl was chased by a very angry Johnny.
