REFERENCES "The Devil Wears Prada" (title) "Calendar Girls" (movie, based on actual event, about older women posing nude for a charity calendar)
DYN ...the blackboard quote had something to do with the episode? ...Carl's name is C. Carl Carlson? ...apparently Mr. Burns doesn't recognize Carl this time?
GOOFS / FREEZE FRAME / WHATNOT The "older women posing nude for charity calendars" appears to stem from a calendar released in 2000 by members of the Rylstone (England) Women's Institute to benefit lukemia research (after one of the women's husbands died of non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma); this was made into the movie "Calendar Girls". A "reunion calendar" (apparently including six of the original 12 women) was released for 2010.
There is a banner in Paris saying "BIENVENUE FISSION WEEK", which contains both English and French words.
"EuroDisney" is now called Disneyland Paris.
