Remarks
Nintega Dario's fan art used in the episode.
- This is the third LarryBoy-centric episode to be based on telling the truth. The first two were Larry-Boy! and the Fib from Outer Space! and The Missing Jetpack, respectively.
- A few of the newly-introduced characters recycle character models from previously established characters:
- Scallini is a re-colored version of Scallion #1.
- Adele Pepper reuses Mirabelle's character model without any noticeable changes.
- The episode uses the typical theme song for the series, which is set in Mr. Nezzer's theater. However, this episode takes place outside the theater.
- On the theater poster for "The Sound of Mushroom", Laura Carrot is seen in her original design, most particularly her Princess Poppyseed outfit from Princess and the Popstar and Lenny and the Lost Birthday.
- As Alfred calls Callie in the LarryMobile, his image displayed shows his monocle on his left eye, when in the episode it's resting on his right eye.
- In Callie's bedroom, some of the posters are just covers of previous LarryBoy episodes without the text.
- Also, one of the posters of LarryBoy displayed in her room is fan art by Nicolas Granola (nicknamed Nintega Dario online). Whether or not this was a mistake by the crew of the episode has yet to be confirmed. (see image)
- The same recording of Callie screaming, "My camera!" is used twice.
Goofs
- Like many episodes released previously, there are shots where characters' noses are misplaced, floating beneath their eyes.
- On a billboard in Callie Flower's bedroom, certain stick-it notes with text are shown in reverse.
- There are a few mistakes made in the credits:
- They state that Mayor Blueberry makes an appearance in the episode, however, her character does not appear, although she is mentioned by LarryBoy.
- They also mistakenly credit Miss Minchin as Miss Achmetha.
Inside References
- Models from previous LarryBoy episodes make appearances (with some small changes), including:
- The Bumblyburg Science Museum from The League of Incredible Vegetables
- The Channel 1 News trailer from LarryBoy and the Bad Apple
- The LarryCave from LarryBoy and the Bad Apple
- The display case featuring the broken Art Bigotti plate and the Rumor Weed's glasses is seen briefly as well.
- Laura and Callie walking out of the theater at the beginning is a nod to the first two LarryBoy episodes.
- The movie posters outside the theater feature one of the Romans from MacLarry and the Stinky Cheese Battle, as well as Princess Poppyseed from Princess and the Popstar and one of the cheerleader peas from a few previous episodes.
- The hats in Caps for Chaps are reused from different VeggieTales episodes.
- The newspaper LarryBoy reads is the same one Mr. Lunt was reading in the previous episode.
- A portrait of Ephraim Apply from LarryBoy and the Bad Apple and one of Jacques' inventions from Blunders in Boo-Boo Ville can be seen in the Bumblyburg Science Museum.
Real-World References
- As Laura and Callie exit a movie theater, behind them are posters for films titled "Peas" and "The Sound of Mushroom", parodies of the films Grease and The Sound of Music, respectively.
- Callie Flower talks into a device named Eugenia, a parody of the virtual assistant Alexa, found in many products by Amazon.
