Trivia[]
- This is the only time Moneyball showed up, the only time that MAD shows a cartoon that says "In Loving Memory", and the first time when the second movie parody is styled like an ad parody.
- This is the second time the Greatest Thing Ever! appeared.
- This is the third time Dragon Ball, Green Lantern, and Care Bears get spoofed, and also the third time MAD does two movie parodies instead of just one.
- This is the sixth time the Smurfs appeared on MAD.
- Moneyball Z was originally going to air along with The Superhero Millionaire Matchmaker, but it was changed into Green Care Bear. This stinks, right?
