Behind the scenes

  • The title is a pun on "Another foggy evening." 'Nuff said.
  • The audience in the Colosseum contains caricatures of the following staff: Tina Raleigh, Don Arioli, Rose Long, Chuck Jones, Michel Breton, Ben Jones, Herman Sharaf, Warren O'Neill, Greg Whittaker, Tod Polson and Lawrence Marvit in the back row; Steve Fossati, Bob Givens, Linda Jones Clough, Greg Duffell, Tom Decker and Jill Petrilak in the middle row; Steve Fossati, Bob Givens, Linda Jones Clough, Greg Duffell, Tom Decker and Jill Petrilak in the middle row; Charlie Puzzo, Ted Bemiller, Mike Polvani and Stan Freberg in the front row.[1]
    • In the actual cartoon, O'Neill and Decker are only partially present, and Whittaker, Petrilak, Polson and Marvit are cut off by the camera.
  • The two men giving the thumbs up at the Colosseum are caricatures of film critics Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel.
  • The name "R. Crusoe, Esq" can be seen on box next to the fisher. This is a reference to the 1719 novel Robinson Crusoe.
  • Although he made a small cameo appearance, it is the only theatrical cartoon in which Marvin appears without either Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and Porky Pig.
