Trivia[]
- This is the second Thanksgiving special after "Big Deal".
- The majority of the short is basically non-canon as there's no way the four animated shows could exist in the same universe.
- This is the first short to be a crossover, not counting the Broken Karaoke short Doof Sings Deck the Halls.
- In the introduction to Stuck at Home, Tilly mentions the Greens are still stuck at home, implying this was recorded during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- Then again, the special could be considered non-canon.
- Cricket uses his imagination to present the final short, like how he "retreated into [his] imagination" in "Dolled Up".
- A running gag is Gramma slamming on the projector with her sword. Due to slamming it so many times, the projector is broken and Cricket has to imagine the final short.
- In the introduction to Queen of Nice when Tilly flips her head back, she is wearing her earrings which she received after getting her ears pierced in "Tilly Style".
- Ironically, it was Cricket's fault for breaking the projector since he was the last one to slam on it with Gramma's sword.
- This is the second time Cricket got grounded, the first time being "Space Chicken", but this time he accepts his punishment.
- It's revealed Bill found out Cricket prank called Raven-Symone.
- Coincidentally, Raven herself is the voice of Maria Media.
- The Random Rings segments were changed in that the caller feedback was removed.
- The credits play only text.
