Sidetable was the only character that had nothing to pretend in this episode because all she said was, "Blue's Clues, I'm so excited", and was not yet fully developed.
This episode was the basis for the pilot episode of the canceled Latin American version of the show, Pistas de Azul.
Starting in this episode, Steve's voice is lower-pitched and calmer, though there are many instances where his voice is back to higher-pitched, as was the case in all other episodes after this one in mid-late Season 1 and in some episodes from Season 2 to Season 4. However, the next episode, A Snowy Day was the first aired episode that his voice was like that.
Michael Rubin (under the name "Seth O'Hickory") is uncredited in this episode.
Netflix mistook this episode as the first.
