This episode included a short film called "Don't Look Back in Anger", which featured John Belushi portraying himself as an old man. He goes to a cemetery where his former Saturday Night co-stars are buried, and says "They all thought that I'd be the first one to go." In reality, John Belushi actually was the first member of the Not Ready for Prime Time Players to die, almost exactly four years after that show aired.
John Belushi, in the skit "Don't Look Back in Anger " quips that Garrett Morris died of a heroin overdose. Almost four years later, Belushi himself died of precisely that.
"Loose Change," mentioned by Belushi in the opening monologue, was a mini series aired in 1978. The network aired the episodes out of order, revealing much of the conclusion during the second episode.
