- Kevin Smith has acknowledged that his crush on actress Stacie Mistysyn prompted his naming of Clerks. (1994) character, Caitlin Bree, in honor of Mistysyn's Caitlin Ryan character (from Degrassi Junior High (CA); School's Out (1992) (TV) and Degrassi: The Next Generation (CA)), and subsequently tried to cast her in Mallrats. However, in spite of all this adulation, it appears that he titled "Jersey Girl" before knowing of Mistysyn's Jersey Guy (2003) released only months earlier. Smith would later guest star on 5 episodes of Degrassi: The Next Generation (CA) as a fictional representation of himself flirting with and attempting to seduce Caitlin Ryan.
- Movie Goof (continuity error): Gertie's gravestone indicated she died (in childbirth) on June 1, yet she was extremely pregnant in the scene where she was preparing to attend the Video Music Awards, which are held in late summer/early fall. Ollie and Gertie should have been preparing for the MTV Movie Awards, or else Gertie delivered about 6 months overdue.
- Kevin Smith's commitment to Jersey Girl has been so demanding that he couldn't finish two Marvel comic books that he began. The first being "Daredevil: The Target", which didn't get past issue one. The second, being "Spider-Man and the Black Cat", which he promoted on an episode of the Jay Leno show but only got to issue three, leaving the readers in suspense as to the Black Cat's fate at the edge of issue three's cliffhanger ending.
- DIRTRADE(Kevin Smith): [Comics]: Ollie and Gertie refer to the street sweeper as the Batmobile.
