Continuity
- This episode's events occur simultaneously to those of "Planes, Trains and Dude-Mobiles".
- Charlie and Belinda are still a supervillains as a result of the events in "Counter Productive".
- Belinda mentions that her village is named "Hedgehog Village". This was the name the Village received in "Unnamed Episode".
Production
Alan Denton and Greg Hahn wanted to have an episode with a female villain for a fun change of pace. They chose Belinda as she was already established as an antagonist in season one but did not have a true main role.[3][4]
When pitching "Planes, Trains and Dude-Mobiles", Alan and Greg knew they needed a second plot for Amy and Sticks, though no ideas were really established right away. They soon thought up of the idea to have two separate episodes run side-by-side, crossing over.[5][6]

Trivia
- Nine days before this episode aired on Boomerang, Bill Freiberger released the title card for this episode on Twitter as a teaser.[7]
- The title of this episode is a reference to the 1989 sci-fi comedy Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.
- This is the third episode in the second season that Sticks breaks the fourth wall when questioning the use of Amy's time-skip and the viewers watching the show.
- The song that plays during Dr. Eggman's last attack on the Sonic doll is based on the "Ride of the Valkyries".
- Dr. Eggman dodging the nails thrown at him by Sticks is a reference to the 1999 science fiction film, The Matrix.
- Belinda saying how she does not like the look of Lady Goat is ironic considering both of them share the same character model.
