Michael Clarke Duncan makes a brief cameo as Tiny. Carlton is arguing with Will to which he turns and says to Duncan "Ain't that right, Tiny?" He replies with "Shut up."
Will and Mr. Bradley debate who would win in a foot race, Superman or the Flash. In Justice League, Superman and Flash have a foot race.
When Carlton is eating the big bowl of M&M's, he gets upset that now there are blue ones. The blue M&M replaced the tan M&M in late 1995. However, this episode was recorded in mid-1995. The reason "Fresh Prince" got them before the public did was to coordinate the airing of this episode with the roll out of the new color. In another connection, legendary blues guitarist B.B. King makes a guest appearance in this episode as 'Pappy.' At one point, Pappy and Carlton discuss the M&M color change. B.B. King also appeared in the first TV commercial to advertise the new blue M&M's.
