Trivia

• Cartman and Kenny only appear briefly and have no dialog.
• The scientist manning the digital communicator bears resemblance to Steven Spielberg.
• Shelly Marsh has a new boyfriend in this episode. This is her second boyfriend, the first being Skyler Morse in "Cat Orgy".
• All the bizarre fetishes Randy explores in the 'simulator' as well as when he is on the computer all exist, including Brazilian fart porn. The latter's audio was directly used in the episode.

References to Popular Culture

• When Sharon Marsh is telling Shelly to get off the computer, you can see a poster which says "Sadie Dakota" which is an obvious spoof of "Hannah Montana".
• The plot of the episode, the motif of going to California to look for something, and the black and white scene at the camp parody The Grapes of Wrath.
• A billboard for the musical "Hairspray" is seen in the jump cut to New York.
• The Internet's holding chamber is reminiscent of the alien craft in Independence Day.
• The scientist trying to talk to the Internet digitally is a reference to Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
• The notes played on the keyboard to communicate with the Internet are derived from Close Encounters of the Third Kind.
• The final scene is a parody of On Deadly Ground.
• The beginning is very similar to the Great Depression.
• When Randy sneaks in the building to use the computer he logs on to YooHoo! which is a parody of the Yahoo! Internet browser.
• Several characters seen in the episode have laptops with water melon slices branded on the front as logos. This is a reference to Apple Inc. and Mac computers.

Goofs

• When Randy says they are all alone, it starts to back out in layers. When it goes to last layer, you can see in far right corner a large building that looks like the Wall-Mart or Jim's Drugs, both stores were both destroyed in the episode, "Something Wall-Mart This Way Comes".
• Just after this, it says "Monday: 8 Days Without Internet", which means the first day without Internet was Sunday. This comes in contrast with Shelly saying the first day that she had to catch up with her boyfriend before school starts, so it couldn't be Sunday, unless it was Monday and next Monday was actually "The 8th day without Internet".
• When Gerald is talking to Randy, Randy does not have eyebrows. When Randy turns around, his eyebrows are back. This happens again when Randy is at the computer, but this time it is Sharon. Her nose also changes momentarily.
