This episode contains an appearance of Mindy Kaling who was a costar of Steve Carell on The Office (2005). The two also appeared together in The 40-Year-Old Virgin (2005).
The opening song in the episode is a rendition of Radiohead's "Creep", which given the subject matter of the first two episodes is VERY relevant.
Mindy Kaling tells the reporter on the red carpet that she's so glad it isn't her who works with a sexual predator like Mitch. Kaling famously "worked with" Steve Carell (who plays Mitch) on The Office (2005).
This is the first episode in the series to feature the opening credits.
The arrangement of Radiohead's Creep was created by Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox. Production did not credit Bradlee or PMJ.
