Trivia

• When Jimmy and Timmy are in the monster truck, the dixie horn can be heard as they are driving by.
• This special was originally supposed to serve as the series finale for both The Fairly OddParents and The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius. But The FOP ended up receiving five more seasons, with the sixth season premiering just over a year and a half after this special first aired.
  • Jimmy Neutron also eventually got a follow-up in the form of Planet Sheen, a short-lived spinoff series focusing on Jimmy's friend, Sheen Estevez.
  • The idea of a series centered on both universes was floated around inside Nickelodeon. However, the idea failed to gain traction due to the mixed reception of "The Jerkinators" as well as the bankruptcy of Jimmy Neutron's studio, DNA Productions.
• Due to DNA Productions being in the process of shutting down, they were very limited in how much they could animate. This is why most of the special takes place in the FOP universe/art style and scenes in the JN universe are short and limited in scope.
• A number of Jimmy Neutron characters appear in the FOP art style in the "Retrodimmsdaleaville" sequence: Hugh and Judy Neutron, Butch Pakovski, Ms. Fowl, Mayor Quador, Sam Melvick, Ebenezer Wheezer, Principal Willoughby, Corky Shimatzu, Mr. Estevez, and a handful of other minor characters.
  • Despite having a brief speaking role, Judy Neutron's voice actor, Megan Cavanagh, is uncredited.
• When Shirley was playing a game similar to “Go-Fish” using the Retroville and Dimmsdale as cards, he was seen pairing the Jimmy Neutron with their Fairly Odd Parents counterparts -
  • Ms. Winifred Fowl and Mr. Denzel Crocker: Both are school teachers of the main characters.
  • Butch Pakovski and Francis: Both are violent school bullies.
  • Mayor Quador and The Mayor of Dimmsdale: The mayors of the cities.
  • Hugh Neutron and Mr. Turner: Both are bumbling, dim witted fathers of the main characters.
  • Judy Neutron and Mrs. Turner: Both are mothers of the main characters.
• Like Abra-Catastrophe!, Channel Chasers, School's Out!: The Musical, Fairy Idol, When Nerds Collide!, and Jimmy Timmy Power Hour, an alternative version split into 3 parts also exists with redesigned title cards. This was primarily designed for international broadcasters such as the BBC, who sometimes aired the show inside another show (such as Dick & Dom in da Bungalow). However, on occasion the BBC has aired the full length special as a separate program.
• There's an online game based on this episode named Shirley's Revenge.
• This is the only Jimmy Timmy Power Hour crossover where Goddard and Jorgen Von Strangle are not present, although the former is in the intro with Cosmo and Wanda on his back just like the last two Jimmy Timmy Power Hour episodes.
• This was the last official Nicktoons crossover in TV animation until Beast of Friends in 2017.
• This is the only episode in the Jimmy Timmy Power Hour trilogy to include only one main villain.

Allusions

• Prince - Shirley, after being made fun of for his name, refers to himself as "The villain who's name isn't Shirley". The musician Prince was referred to as "The Artist Formerly Known as Prince" after changing his stage name to an unpronounceable symbol for a period in the 1990's (Due to a contract dispute with his record label).

Continuity & Easter Eggs

• Captain Betty makes a cameo on the billboard that Jimmy and Timmy hit.
• This is an episode that mentions the theme song. Another is Timmy's Secret Wish!.
• This is the second time Jimmy has become stupid. the first was "Normal Boy".

Goofs

• There are multiple clones of some characters in the domino chain.
• In Dimmsdale, Shirley took Cosmo and Wanda's wands and turned them into humans. However, Cosmo can still somehow conjure "The Idiots" jacket onto himself even though Shirley took his magic.
• While Shirley was in Retroville at one point, the fire on his head was missing.
• When A.J. and Chester entered Jimmy's world, they kept their balance. This contradicts both When Nerds Collide! and Nicktoons Unite!, where, in the former, Jimmy, Carl, Sheen, Libby, and Professor Calamitous fly through the portal in Dimmsdale, and in the latter, SpongeBob falls over when he enters Jimmy's Lab. The theory is that when characters (with the exception of Goddard) enter a universal portal for the first time, they do not keep their balance. Since Jorgen and Timmy were not shown after they entered a portal for the first time, it is possible that characters from The Fairly OddParents! universe are not affected by the unbalance.
• Sharpay Folfax is listed twice in the credits, under both "Mrs. Folfax" and "Libby's Mom".

Running Gags

• After A.J. is thawed out, he assumes he is in the future until Libby tells him he never left the present.
