About Last Night.../Trivia

Production
According to Trey Parker, this was the only version of the episode produced, as a McCain version proved "too daunting a task." The episode was completed the morning of the day it aired, with Comedy Central seeing only excerpts of the show beforehand. Los Angeles Times. Accessed November 7, 2008

In an IGN interview, Matt Stone revealed that they at one point considered adding a scene spoofing The Dark Knight where ten-President George W. Bush take the blame of the Hope Diamond being stolen as a way to 'fuck with people' due to the public's general dislike of Bush at the time.

Goofs

 * In the episode, Obama says that the hope diamond is the 4th most valuable diamond in the world, but in actuality, it's the 3rd. At the time of production, however, it may've been the fourth most valuable.


 * Before entering the Oval Office, Obama is wearing a suit in tie. However, when he enters it, there is no tie. The same happened when exiting with Michelle (Tie) and went to the limo (No Tie).


 * As the Obama supporters come to gather near the Marshes house when Randy leaves, a woman in the background looks suspiciously like Mrs. Tenorman, who was killed at the hand of Cartman himself.

Trivia

 * Song at the end is Debussy "Clair De Lune", also played at the end of Oceans 12.
