Behind the scenes

• The title is another pun of 'tea for two'.
• This cartoon marked the final theatrical appearance of the Goofy Gophers during the Golden Age of American Animation.
• Daffy's grunting when lifting a rock onto the trash can lid is recycled from Hare Remover, when Elmer tries to feed the dog the transformation potion, and Chili Weather, when Sylvester struggles to lift a bottle cap off his head.
  • It was also used for the Pink Panther and his big-nosed foil in DePatie-Freleng's The Pink Panther shorts, along with Charlie Brown's grunting in You're the Greatest, Charlie Brown and Linus in Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown.
• This is the last and final one of three DePatie-Freleng era shorts to not feature Speedy Gonzales with Daffy Duck, the other two being Suppressed Duck and Corn on the Cop.
• This is the only cartoon where Daffy antagonizes the Goofy Gophers.
• Unlike previous appearances of the Goofy Gophers, where Stan Freberg voices Tosh, here Blanc voices both Mac and Tosh. In addition, the Goofy Gophers do not have tan bellies, as well as having slightly deeper voices than in their previous appearances.
• Daffy's scream (albeit the last half) is both Sylvester and Wile E. Coyote's reused from Tugboat Granny (1956) and To Beep or Not to Beep (1963), respectively.
• The rifle gag from A Star Is Bored (1956) is reused in this short. The main difference is that a solid blue bow takes the place of the a polka-dot bow from the earlier cartoon.
