      • During the original run of the show, interview segments with Matt often featured the tag: "Matt Thinks It's All Real." This tag is left intact for Mo' Joe Schmo Show but during the new interview segments with Matt shown before going to commercials, the tag reads "Mo' JOE SCHMO MATT KNOWS." Edit
      • Information revealed by Matt in the Mo' Joe Schmo Show version of this episode: The castmates arriving at the show at the limo was only for show, he at least spent most of the trip to the mansion in a normal car. Kip was not actually naked during the Pampering Competition. Says Matt of this: "That's Hollywood." Matt didn't think that Kip's thong was actually all that uncomfortable and, per the rules, he slept in it. Matt thought that Hutch was irritating, but he also "cracked him up." There was too much salad at the dinners for Matt's taste. Matt says that looking back, he's really impressed with Dr. Pat's (Kristen Wiig's) acting. Matt still doesn't understand why Ashleigh, the supposed bitch, gave out the bracelets. Matt later learned that the name of the President of SpikeTV is Albie Hecht, seemingly confirming that the name of Brian's doll is a reference. The editors reversed a Kip of shot when he was eating. Edit
      • SpikeTV added commentary from Matt Kennedy Gould to the series, and aired this new footage during the repeat of the first hour of this episode on November 11, and the second hour on November 18. These repeats were billed as as Mo' Joe Schmo Show. Commentary segments were shown at the top of the show and before going to commercial breaks in place of the original "coming up next" segments. Additionally, there were popup notes throughout the episode with Matt's comments. Edit

      • Matt: Show and tell was a wonderful idea. I couldn't think of a better way to, you know, learn something more about a person. Edit
      • Matt: I can honestly say it's just frusturating with Hutch sometimes because he crosses lines. Edit
