MISTAKES/GOOFS

TRIVIA

• Welch voted down several breast jokes that the male writers submitted, including a Franken & Davis movie trailer for The Planet of the Enormous Hooters. Costume designer Franne Lee actually made size fifty-something tops for Jane, Laraine, and Gilda, all of which were put on hold for the Dolly Parton show, thirteen years later.
• The "Claudine Longet Invitational" provoked a legal threat from her estranged husband Andy Williams. One month later, Don Pardo delivered a convoluted apology.
• This is episode is probably best-remembered for Lorne Michaels making a statement requesting The Beatles to reunite on the show for $3000. Three weeks later Michaels offers them $3200. John Lennon (I) and Paul McCartney were at a nearby hotel at the time and actually did consider taking the offer, but decided against it.
• A technical strike accounts for the stilted camera and lighting work in this episode.
