Trivia

• This segment was the last to feature Christine Cavanaugh as the voice of Dexter. Her replacement for the rest of the series, Candi Milo, had already voiced Dexter in the previously-aired segments, "Poppa Wheely", "The Mock Side of the Moon", and "If Memory Serves". This most likely means that "Tele-Trauma" was produced before these other segments were, despite airing afterwards.
• There was a The Powerpuff Girls reference in this episode. One of the quotes Dexter got from the TV was "Townsville's in trouble!"
• There was a Seinfeld reference in this episode. When Phillips Luzinsky came up to Dexter, Dexter said "Newman".
