Trivia
- The episode title is a reference to the Elton John song "Funeral for a Friend".
- Originally, showrunner Eric Wallace was supposed to direct this episode, but ended up directing the next episode, "Into the Still Force", instead.[1]
- While not officially part of the "Death Revisited" graphic novel, Eric Wallace considers this episode to be a conclusion to that storyline.[2]
- Among the items on Frost's bucket list was a white water rafting trip. Barry had mentioned doing this with Frost in "Success Is Assured".
- This episode is similar to the Superman & Lois Season 2 episode "Bizarros in a Bizarro World", with both episodes having segments focusing on one or several characters.
Goofs
- Despite being labeled as a meta in the synopsis, Mark Desmond isn't a meta-human but given augmented strength through an exo-suit.
- When Caitlin starts gathering Frost's possessions, one shot clearly uses a body double, possibly due to Danielle Panabaker's pregnancy.
