At the end of the PSI Corp commercial a "subliminal" message flashes over the screen which says "The Psi Corps is your friend. Trust the Corps." The message is a mere flicker -- just long enough to be legal. In France the laws are stricter, and the segment had to be cut.
(edit)
Continuity: Captain John Sheridan's middle name is given as David (his father's name, the name he eventually gives his son, and also the middle name of Commander Jeff Sinclair). In later episodes, he is always referred to as "John J. Sheridan".
(edit)
The reporter's name - Torqueman -- is a reference to another sort of inquistor -- Torquemada, the famous Inquisitor General of the Spanish Inquisition.
