Allusions

• Harry Potter - The story of Cosmo and his Uncle Harry and Aunt Potter are parodies of Harry Potter's story. Also, The Fairy Academy is a parody of Hogwarts. Furthermore, Dumblesnore is a parody of the well-known headmaster of Hogwarts, Dumbledore.
• Adobe Photoshop - Jorgen mentioned photoshopping his body.
• Donald Trump - Timmy's hairstyle in the beginning looks like Donald Trump's hairstyle. Timmy even describes it as "too 'Trump'".

Goofs

• The origin of many fairies that appeared in this episode has been completely changed from their origin in other episodes:
  • The way Cosmo met Wanda has been completely changed from the episodes, School's Out!: The Musical and Cosmonopoly.
  • Cosmo said that he lived with his uncle and aunt, but in This Is Your Wish, he lived with his parents.
  • This episode shows that Cosmo and Jorgen learned together at the Fairy Academy, but in This Is Your Wish, it said that Jorgen taught Cosmo at the academy.
  • It is said in Fairy Fairy Quite Contrary that Juandissimo was Wanda's boyfriend, but in this episode, she hated him.
  • The Fairy Academy looks completely different in this episode. In this episode, The Academy looks like a school.
• Cupid attended The Fairy Academy, but had never actually become a fairy godparent. He probably just failed in his final work.
• Why did it take the Fairy Council 10,000 years to see if Cosmo ever submitted his diploma?
  • Even so, why didn't Professor Dumblesnore notice it firsthand?
• Wanda, the person who stole Cosmo's paper, has light skin and skinny hands, which is visible on Cosmo's memory chip. Despite that, one of their suspects was brown skinned and muscular Juandissimo. However, it can be excused if they simply assumed that Juandissimo disguised himself.
