Joan Caulfield, Annette Funicello, Celeste Holm, James MacArthur, Dewey Martin, Sheree North and Susan Oliver all receive 'Special Guest Stars In Alphabetical Order' credits.
This was the first episode of the series where Amos Burke did not speak an example of "Burke's Law".
Funicello's and MacArthur's casting as an engaged couple was probably not random; they were both known veterans of Disney movies and TV.
This episode was scheduled to be shown on November 22nd, 1963. The date of the assassination of President Kennedy. Due to the suspension of normal television broadcasting as a result of the assassination, the episode was seen a week later in its normal 7:30pm EST time on November 29th.
