Notes/trivia
- Eating Crow was originally intended to air on March 19, 2016, but Cartoon Network replaced it with Teen Titans Go! at the last minute; Boomerang also replaced what would've been their encore showing with a rerun of Gremlin on a Plane. Instead, it was briefly released on Cartoon Network's website, as well as on Xfinity.
- "Eating crow" is an American colloquial idiom, meaning humiliation by admitting wrongness or having been proven wrong after taking a strong position. Crow is presumably foul-tasting in the same way that being proven wrong might be emotionally hard to swallow.
Miscellaneous
- Disguises: Shaggy and Scooby as scarecrows; Dorothy and her friends from The Wizard of Oz; and crows.
- Daphneism: Wants a close pet/animal friendship like Shaggy has with Scooby.
Cultural references
- A farmer and wife at the farmer's market resemble those in the American Gothic painting.
- Shaggy and Scooby fool the scarecrow into going down a fake yellow brick road like in the MGM film, The Wizard of Oz.
Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches
- None known.
Inconsistencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities
- Colonel Jerkey is now spelled "Colonel Jerky" (which may be correct, but not consistent).
- "Farmers' market" is misspelled as "Farmer's market."
- Jonathan's name is also spelled "Johnathan" on the the surveyor's map, when it was already spelled the former's own produce stand banner and later in the end credits.
