Trivia[]
- Table read date: November 4, 2016.
- The title is a reference to the 2001 Mexican drama film Y Tu Mamá También, which translates into English as "And Your Mother Too." Ga-ga is a variant of dodgeball that is played with one ball.
- This was first episode to air since January 14, 2018, owing to competition from NFL games, the Winter Olympic Games, and award ceremonies meaning no new episodes were aired since then.
- Darryl appears on the script cover but not in the actual episode.
- Linda's Punky Bookster storytelling persona is a parody of Punky Brewster.
- After Wayne breaks his glasses after losing the gaga ball game to Regular Sized Rudy, he can be seen in later scenes wearing them having had them fixed with tape.
- Teddy carries some of Linda's props to the library in the Wonder Wharf duffel bag he was shown using in "Like Gene for Chocolate."
- In the overhead shots of the gaga pits before Mr. Frond starts the tournament. Mr. Ambrose, Mr. Branca, Ms. LaBonz, Ms. Jacobson, Ms. Schnur, Ms. Twitchell, Ms. Merkin, and Ms. Schroeder can all be seen watching on the patio just outside the doors.
- The book the librarian is holding when talking to Linda and Frank is titled Sally Found a Sticker.
- This is the second episode where Linda is shown in pigtails, the first being was "Slumber Party."
- Frond's line "Mr. Branca, tear down those walls." is a reference to the statement made by former United States president Ronald Reagan commanding Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev to tear down the Berlin Wall. This is apt given that Mr. Branca in previous episodes had suggested that he led his possibly communist home country before a coup occurred.
- The final Burger of the Day in this episode is the "Corn this Way" Burger, referencing the Lady Gaga hit "Born This Way", reflecting the fact that gaga ball is a central theme of this episode.
- Gene makes a reference from the movie Sister Act.
- Frank states he couldn't attend the Frasier tour in Seattle because it ended early, which is a reference to the show mainly taking place in Seattle and many people questioning why the (original) show ended.[1]
- The pest control van in the intro is labelled as "Ant too proud to bug" which is a play on the song "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" sung by The Temptations.
- This is the first episode to use a Spanish title. The second one is "Y Tu Tina También."
