Notes/trivia
- Sonny and Cher ended their marriage in 1975. Sonny passed away on January 5, 1998 in a skiing accident.
Cultural references
- The "Avon lady" referenced by Cher is a door-to-door sales person that sells Avon personal care products.
- The "Jolly Green Giant" (well giantess) referenced by Sonny is the mascot of a frozen and canned vegetable brand owned by General Mills. The mascot made its first television appearance in 1958.
- Sonny & Cher also refer to Barbra Streisand while in bed, who was a famous musician and actress at the time.
- While Sonny, Cher, Shaggy & Scooby are running from the Shark God on barrels, Cher tells Sonny, "Well this is a fine mess you have got us into, Sonny!", alluding to Oliver Hardy's famous catchphrase in the Laurel & Hardy films. Incidentally, they would be referenced again in the following episode with Don Knotts, and finally have their own guest spots in the episode after.
Animation mistakes and/or technical glitches
- Sonny mentions he left behind the spare tire at home to make room for his waterskis, but there's a spare tire on the side of the car, right next to the popped one.
- On the brochure, the Hideaway Hotel is misspelt "Hideway Hotel".
- When coming back up for air, Fred says he couldn't hold his breath any longer and Velma agrees, but it comes from Daphne's mouth.
- A few seconds before Mr. Meekly says to Sonny and Cher, "Want all of your children in the same room", the bell on his desk disappears.
Inconsistencies/continuity errors and/or goofs/oddities
- They say that "pescado diabólico" means "fish of the Devil," but the Spanish phrase actually translates to "diabolical fish" in English. A more accurate Spanish phrase would be "el pescado del Diablo."
- Near the end of the episode, when Matilda/Matt Hildago calls the Shark Men out of the water, there are two in the water, and one walking away from Shaggy, Scooby, Sonny, and Cher. There are actually two Shark Men in total, not three.
