  • George asks during the dinner with the Rosses, "Did anybody see Firestorm?" Firestorm, an imaginary film featuring Harrison Ford, was also referenced in The Engagement.
  • Carol Leifer, writer of this episode, told an interviewer, "It's really an honor—after I wrote that episode about the marble rye bread, I remember going to a deli out here in L.A., and they had a sign that said, "We have marble rye, as featured on Seinfeld."

Famous quotes containing the word trivia:

    The most refined skills of color printing, the intricate techniques of wide-angle photography, provide us pictures of trivia bigger and more real than life. We forget that we see trivia and notice only that the reproduction is so good. Man fulfils his dream and by photographic magic produces a precise image of the Grand Canyon. The result is not that he adores nature or beauty the more. Instead he adores his camera—and himself.
    Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)

    Pop artists deal with the lowly trivia of possessions and equipment that the present generation is lugging along with it on its safari into the future.
    —J.G. (James Graham)
