Thank God It's Friday

The name of the disco where the movie is set was The Zoo. The nightclub used for the Zoo was Osko's at 333 South La Cienega Boulevard, in Los Angeles, California. The club was demolished during the 1980s and a Loehmann's dress store was built in its place. Osko's Disco had 4 dance floors, and was famous for being like a labyrinth.

Shortly after the start of the film, Alec R Costandinos' "Romeo and Juliet", which is released by Casablanca, is heard on the soundtrack, but a different record (on the maroon-and-yellow Gordy label) is shown playing in the DJ booth.

The Torch Lady in the Columbia Pictures logo briefly changes her robes to a disco outfit and dances to a disco beat.
