The table read for this episode took place on a Thursday (July 2, 2015) rather than a Friday. This was due to Independence Day (July 4) falling on a Saturday which meant the federal side of the holiday was observed on Friday, July 3, so Bento Box's offices were closed.[1]
The title is a reference to the movie Bye Bye Birdie.
The amusement parks being visited on Boo Boo's solo tour are; Danger Creek, Wooly Rapids, The Zippy Zone, Sun 'n' Slide Funpark, California Island and Wonder Wharf.
Boo Boo leaving Boyz4Now to start a solo career was most likely inspired by the departure of Zayn Malik from British boyband One Direction in March 2015, a few months before the table read for this episode. Malik has since launched his own solo career.

Jimmy Pesto impersonates Al Pacino portraying Tony Montana in the 1983 movie, Scarface when he invites the crowd of people into his restaurant after unveiling the fake plaque.
The fake plaque Jimmy puts up on his restaurant reads: "MOBSTER KILLED HERE: On This Spot In Prohibition Times, A Mobster Got Whacked While Eating. This Became The Basis For The Hit Film Dick Tracy." The film, from 1990, was actually based on a comic strip of the same name from the 1930s.
