Trivia

 * According to this issue, five key components to the What-If Machine include: a bowl, a coil, a cog, a transistor and a motherboard.
 * Farnsworth seems to have been growing a second clone. This one already has glasses on despite looking to be foetal.
 * Scruffy has a monkey tail in one of the alternate What If? universes, but the last panel suggests he actually has one in the normal universe, too.
 * Leela has a relationship with the Leg Mutant in an alternate reality where she was never put up for adoption by her parents.
 * The gang end up in an alternate reality where everything is made of words, which results in them being able to see & read the caption balloons that normally only the reader would see, essentially breaking the fourth wall.
 * The last alternate reality the gang end up in seems to have been taken over by Morbo's species (due to the Statue of Liberty being replaced by a statue of Morbo stood on a pile of skulls), but no one ever comments on this and no other tell-tale signs of an invasion are shown.

Allusions

Continuity

 * In one alternate reality, Zoidberg is extremely lucky due to eating Fry's seven-leaf clover, much to Fry's annoyance.

Goofs

 * Kif has a speaking part in the cereal area despite cameoing in the Peanuts area.
 * In the game show reality, Calculon says he'll be asking a series of questions and is looking for the answers, but Zoidberg provides him with a list of questions, suggesting it was meant to be a reversed round and the writer made a mistake.
 * It might be a -style game, in which case the answers are in the form of questions.
