This is the first time that Freakazoid has appeared on Cartoon Network since March 29, 2003, when reruns of his original show left the channel.
This is the sixth crossover episode.
Thanks to Steven Spielberg, the long-awaited Freakazoid has returned by making a crossover with the Titans.
This might be an homage to the Animaniacs reboot, as the original Animaniacs has crossed-over with Freakazoid before.
Paul Rugg helped script this episode and reprised his role as Freakazoid.
To the joy of fans worldwide, Freakazoid is officially back.
David Warner, the voice of Lobe, has also lent his voice to other Cartoon Network shows, namely The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy, where he voiced Nergal, and The Amazing World of Gumball, where he voiced Rob/Dr. Wrecker.
Incidentally, he also voiced Batman villain Ra's al Ghul from Batman: the Animated Series.
This marks Ed Asner's final performance as Sergeant Mike Cosgrove and David Warner’s final performance as Lobe before their deaths on August 29, 2021 and July 24, 2022, respectively.
Continuity
The Freakazoid costume that Robin crashed into from "The Great Disaster" returns in this episode.
Both this and the previous episode, "Toddler Titans…Yay!" begin with the Titans sitting on the couch, bored.
Friends, referenced by Raven in the ending of Forest Pirates, is referenced again. The image that was used from Friends at the end of the episode is recycled in this episode.
References
Freakazoid and his primary nemesis, Lobe, both appeared.
The three tapes that the Brain tossed are about the shows Histeria, Waynehead and Detention respectively.
There is a Loonatics Unleashed reference at the beginning of this episode.
Interestingly, Cyborg's voice actor (Khary Payton) played General Deuce, a main antagonist, on Loonatics Unleashed.
When the Titans were trying to find the right superhero, Raven found Batman Beyond, while Starfire found Road Rovers.
Throughout the episode, a backdrop that said "relax-o-vision" appeared occasionally. This is a reference to the original Freakazoid: when a fight was too violent, a soothing image with the phrase "relax-o-vision" would appear onscreen to censor it.
The repeated use of "huggbees" is also a Freakazoid reference.
A cardboard stand of Bugs Bunny from Looney Tunes appears behind The Brain.
Errors
Robin abandoned his staff when he was escaping from the crocodiles, but in the next scene when the Titans and Freakazoid confronted the Lobe and the Brain, he was seen holding it.
