Although the episode would suggest George P. Wilbur did nothing after Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988), he actually reprised his role of Michael Myers in Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (1995), the sixth film in the series. He and Tyler Mane are the only people to play Myers twice. As of 2021, the original actor Nick Castle has played Myers three times.
Peter mentions that Good Night and Good Luck is his favorite period piece. Alex Borstein (Lois Griffin) is one of the main stars of Good Night and Good Luck.
The title is based on the movie "Tucker: A Man and His Dream". A movie based on Preston Tucker and his attempt to market a car.
The illustration of the film poster as seen in the background when Peter and Tom walk past the Hollywood Walk of Fame is that of Casino Royale (2006).
This episode was dedicated to storyboard artist Ricky Garduno, who died in 2011.
