    • In the first episode, Sam is said to be from Kansas, but he has the letter N on his shirt. Sam was originally going to be from New York, but word never got to the artist, so that is why the N is there. Edit
    • In "Down The Drain," when Twister was shooting footage of Otto in the empty pool, Twister was standing right in the middle of it as Otto passes him. But in the next shot, Twister is next to Reggie and Squid, who are on the outside of the pool looking at Otto. Edit
