Trivia

• Jewleeard is a parody of Juilliard School for the Arts in New York.
• This episode is the second to show the Visitors interacting publicly with the other characters, the first being "Cartman Gets an Anal Probe".
• The airplane the boys fly to New York on is a McDonnell Douglas DC-9 (Series 10).
• This is the first appearance of Chef's parents, Thomas and Nellie McElroy, since their debut in "The Succubus", and their last speaking role.
• Several Jakovasaurs, Marklar, and Gelgameks can be seen in the audience of the Biggest Douche in the Universe Award.
• In DVD commentary, series creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone stated that they initially believed Rob Schneider would appreciate their parody, but John Edward may have been upset with it. Stone revealed it was actually the opposite; John Edward claimed to have loved the episode, while Rob Schneider felt the depiction trivialized his career.
• In the Rob Schneider is Kenny trailer, Schneider replaces Kevin Stoley in the classroom.
• Trey Parker and John Edward were born on the very same day - October 19, 1969.

References to Popular Culture

• John Edward is a purported psychic medium, famous for having a talk show in syndication and a book called Crossing Over with John Edward.
• The Rob Schneider trailers satirize the 2002 movie The Hot Chick, which came out on December 13, 2002, two weeks after this episode aired.
• The primary plotline of Kenny possessing Cartman is an allusion to the film Star Trek III: The Search For Spock, directed by Leonard Nimoy, as what happens to Cartman parallels what happened to McCoy when he held Spock's soul in his body.
• One of the aliens at the ceremony resembles a sleestak from Land of the Lost.

Continuity

• Rob Schneider's death is portrayed as a commercial, of which the same death had already happened to Kenny in "Weight Gain 4000".
• Debunking the idea of psychics would continue in "Cartman's Incredible Gift", a Season Eight episode.

Goofs

• In the scene were Stan first uses cold reading on a woman, and explains how he knew her birthday, his gloves are missing in when the camera zooms in on him.
• The flight time from New York to Edinburgh is stated to be 12 hours. In real life, it's about 7 hours. The writers likely calculated it from Denver instead of New York.
• In the scene where Stan opened the door and encountered John Edward after explaining to Kyle about John Edward being a fraud in The Jewleeard School, behind Stan is his living room and the entrance from his house.
• The aliens tell John Edward that he is the first nominee from the Milky Way Galaxy, but Ursula the giant douche is from the Horsehead Nebula, which is located within the Milky Way galaxy.
  • Though it's possible Ursula was nominated some time after Edward was, since the amount of time between the nomination and the ceremony is unknown, as well as the order they are called in.
• The announcer also mentions the galaxy and the planet for the other nominees, except in the case of the Horsehead Nebula. To remain consistent, it should be "Milky Way Galaxy, Horsehead Nebula, Station J-12".
• Chef's last name is spelled "McGilroy" on the name tag on the ham. It should be McElroy.

Hidden Visitor(s)

There are two visitors in this episode:

• In between Chef and Liane at John Edward's show (check the woman's pants sitting behind them).
• With the other aliens who came for John Edward. He could be a member.
