Trivia
- Kenny does not appear in this episode and Cartman only appears in one scene.
- The airplane remotely destroyed by Ike Broflovski is a Bombardier Learjet 45.
- Airplanes seen at the Washington D.C. Airport include the Boeing 757 and Boeing 777.
- Notes on the production of this episode:
- 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.[1]
- In an IGN interview, Matt Stone revealed that they at one point considered adding a scene spoofing The Dark Knight where the then-President George Bush takes 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.[2]
- Trey Parker was set on producing this episode as a response to a joke on Family Guy in which Stewie was dressed in a Nazi uniform that sported a McCain-Palin button.
References to Popular Culture
- This episode's name is a reference to About Last Night..., a 1986 romantic comedy.
- "Celebration" by Kool & the Gang is featured as the residents debauche in the street (occasionally the lyrics "good times" are replaced with "Obama" by the residents).
- The song "Who Let the Dogs Out?" is also played.
- Randy also sings a parody of Barry Manilow's "Mandy" (replacing "Oh, Mandy" with "Obama").
- The heist-like feel of this episode seems to be inspired by the Ocean's series of films.
- Indeed, the song at the end is Debussy's "Clair de Lune", which is also played at the end of Ocean's Twelve.
