The working title for this episode was The Kids Stay in the Picture. My best guest for the title change was that Ron Howard, who was to make his third guest appearance in this episode by asking Homer and the kids to appear in a picture he's making, passed on this offer.
Muttley is a cartoon dog that appears in Hanna-Barbera cartoons. The sidekick of bad guy Dick Dastardly, Muttley first appeared in the late 1960's cartoon Wacky Races. Later, he and Dick got their own show (which features them trying to stop a messager pigeon and Muttley's fantasies). In the recent past, Dick Dastardly and Muttley were usually the main villains in 1980's and 1990's cartoons that featured Hanna-Barbera characters from the 1950's and 1960's.
