** "Celebrity" ghosts like Lincoln and the Tugbottoms are probably of a high-enough status that they're not required to scare, whereas Scratch and Geoff are low-level grunts. The Council probably doesn't bother with enforcing qoutas with Harriet or Sonya because they're technically still sowing misery.

Added DiffLines:

** The app story was wildly unrealistic. A good app can be helpful, but economies of scale to offer lower prices and the infrastructure to offer rapid delivery would be much more important. The Bizmart bit was more believable. Davenport's was apparently a traditional department store, so they would have been competing head-to-head but without the advantages of a national chain. Smaller shops that offer more specialized products and personalized service are actually more likely to survive competition from a big box retailer.


Added DiffLines:

** The whole point was that total lack of fear caused Molly to expose herself to needless danger. While some fears can be irrational, it's only sensible to take precautions against things that can actually hurt you.


Added DiffLines:

* On a sillier note, how were Andrea's spare pajamas a perfect fit for the noticeably taller Libby? Pajamas are often deliberately made a bit loose and baggy so it's believable that she could fit into them, but they should have been obviously short on her.

* So, if Geoff was the one to scare Ruben, why doesn't he seem to recognize him in "Frightmare on Main Street"? It isn't like he has repressed memories about the incident, he instantly recognizes him in "Jinx vs. the Human World", so why does Ruben not even react to him?

** This is reinforced in "Jinx vs. The Human World" when it's revealed that Geoff was the ghost that frightened Ruben as a child by accidentally sneezing on him.

* How is it Andrea's app put almost every store in Brighton out of business but the new Bizmart store only affected Davenport's?

** Libby is not an Orthodox Jew. It's mostly in Orthodox Judaism that girls celebrate their bat mitzvah at 12, a year earlier than boys. In other denominations, girls and boys alike celebrate their mitzvah at 13.

* How was Brighton Middle established in 1935 when middle school is a relatively recent Western invention that wasn't around during that time period?

* How is it possible that Libby turned 12 in the episode "Mazel Tov, Libby!" (since Jewish girls have their Bat Mitzvah at that age) while she's in the same class as 13-year-old Molly? This would make her 11 for the first 10 episodes; how is it possible for someone to start 7th grade at age 11 going on 12?
