* TheOtherDarrin: An amusing subversion: it eventually turns out that the Mr. Radford who started the series was a compulsive impersonator named Fred Suggs, who had the real Radford (played by Creator/JohnAstin) tied up in the basement all along. Radford doesn't press charges because the guy was such a good salesman, and he later turns up as a teller for the Bank of Eerie. Only Marshall notices. [[FridgeHorror Does that mean some poor bank teller is tied up in a basement somewhere?]]
* OutOfOrder: "The Broken Record" (the one where an introverted nerd with an abusive father becomes a rebellious punk) was aired as the last episode, but was clearly written and filmed earlier in the season (it was pulled by NBC due to content), which means that Dash-X is completely absent even though Jason Marsden was still listed in the opening credits. Streaming versions of the show have "The Broken Record" as the eighth episode, and accordingly revert to a version of the credits from before Marsden was part of the regular cast.
