Trivia
- This episode is available on the Season 2 DVD set as well as the bonus episode menu of the Jimmy Timmy Power Hour DVD.
- Similar to the episode "The Secret Origin of Denzel Crocker", this episode might be an example of a predestination paradox. Vicky was a nice five-year-old girl, but when Timmy cruelly babysat her, she quickly became mean, which is perhaps an indication why she eventually became a mean babysitter herself.
- Even though it's against Da Rules to wish to maim someone, it is shown here that one can indirectly wish for someone to get hurt, when Timmy wishes the trampoline, everyone is bouncing on to take pictures of Timmy in his underwear was gone and sends them plummeting to the ground, where they are injured in the landing.
- Little Vicky's character model was reused again for Nicky in the Breakin' Da Rules! PC game (despite that Nicky is actually supposed to resemble Tootie while her father resembles Vicky).
- Little Vicky's voice is also very similar to Tootie's voice.
- In the Dutch version, Marlies Somers (Vicky's Dutch voice actress) voices Little Vicky with the same voice that she used for Bubbles in the Dutch dub of The Powerpuff Girls. Coincidentally, Bubbles was voiced by Tara Strong in the US.
- Little Vicky's voice is also very similar to Tootie's voice.
- This is a third time there is a transformation to Timmy.
- Another Nickelodeon show, Kamp Koral, shares the same title.
- This states officially that kids with fairies cannot use magic to kill anybody, as Timmy thought Vicky was going to kill him with the robot's sharp mashing teeth until Wanda pointed out that she cannot do that, as that is against Da Rules.
- This episode and The Zappys! have the same title card music.
- Moral: Sometimes even our enemies should be treated nicely, no matter how evil they are. Revenge isn't always the answer to our problems.
Allusions

Etch-a-Sketch parody
- The Wizard of Oz - The music playing when Cosmo sees Vicky ride her bike towards the house is a reference to the Wicked Witch's theme.
- Etch-a-Sketch - Timmy's "Sketch-a-Dial" is a parody of the popular children's toy.
- Tom and Jerry/The Simpsons - When Cosmo yells "cartoons", he becomes a cat trying to squash a mouse. Cosmo also resembles Scratchy from the Simpsons' cartoon "The Itchy & Scratchy Show", which is itself a parody of Tom and Jerry.
- Mickey Mouse - And the mouse resembles the old Mickey Mouse from the 1930s.
Continuity & Easter Eggs
- The montage of Timmy's "good times" with Vicky includes a moment from the episode "Dream Goat!".
- The introduction Cosmo and Wanda give Vicky is a reference to the one they give Timmy in the pilot episode and on the videotape that they show Timmy on Abra-Catastrophe!
Running Gags
- A running gag in this episode is that people use tape recorders as either threats or proof. Often a gruff voice is used in the tape recording for some reason.
- Cosmo doing a samba dance.
Goofs
- It did not show how Timmy and his godparents changed Vicky back to a teenager, although she is back to normal by her next appearance regardless and her memory of what happened to her in this episode is erased.
- Timmy made that Vicky becomes a child making him her babysitter, that is impossible because Vicky is the reason Timmy has Cosmo and Wanda, so they should disappear, and Timmy should be brainwashed.
- However, as a result of the wish and Timmy becoming her mean babysitter, the fairies were given to her. Also, it wouldn't make sense if anybody finds out she became a 5-year-old suddenly.
- If Timmy lost his fairies, then his memories should have immediately been wiped. It could be possible that memory wiping would not apply if the god child's fairies were reassigned.
- Since Timmy's parents violated a legal document, they should have faced charges and gone to prison. Also, since the kids took pictures/videos of Timmy in his underwear, the kids, or Vicky should have faced charges and gone to prison for child pornography or for child abuse.
- When the Fairy World worker first shows the phrase that would take away your fairies, it read "I'm happy, and I don't need my fairy godparents anymore." But all other times later in the episode, the "fairy" part is omitted from the phrase.
- In the end, when Vicky gets ice cream, she says "Oh, Vanilla!" then proceeds to eat the chocolate flavored ice cream.
