* TheOtherDarrin: On October 2022, it was revealed from the credits of broadcasted reruns that a new English dub will be made for the series with a majority recast done at VOA Studios in Miami, with Ituriel and Markiplier being the only ones to reprise their roles. The pilot has also been re-recorded as well. This effect was a result from Warner Bros. merger with Discovery as well as the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic which hindered the English production for the series and made it switch to Spanish production instead. This explains why the signage and lip-sync in the series frequently changes between both languages throughout the episodes. The dub was released on HBO Max Latin America on November 26, 2022 and premiered (along with the Spanish and Portuguese dubs) on Creator/{{Max}} in the US on May 23, 2023.

* ReclusiveArtist: A. Sayer (Todd Sayre), former voice of Dr. Flug in the English dub, was credited as "A. Sayer" in the original pilot (as well as the crossover) and "Todd "Eco Vox" Asayer" not only due to union restrictions, but because Sayer himself is a very private person.



* TheVoiceless: On the English dub, for cameos of characters from Cartoon Network properties that have speaking roles, they are either muted or their dialogue has been replaced. This is due to the show being non-union would make the possibility of the actors' reprising their roles to be very unlikely.

* UncreditedRole: On the dubbing credits for the TV series, Markiplier is not credited as 5.0.5. nor as Black Hot, despite reprising his role for the latter. While the former may be due to how his initial recordings for the character we're untouched in dubbing, the latter may be due to union reasons since the show is non-union.
** Actors were also uncredited for voicing incidentals as well, most likely due to it being unnecessary.

* WriteWhoYouKnow: According to Alan Ituriel, Black Hat is based on his father and 5.0.5 is based on himself as a child (which has invited some WildMassGuessing). On a happier note, Dr. Flug is explicitly based on Alan's best friend, to the extent of calling him to ask for his opinion when a fan asked Alan whether Flug likes pancakes. Meanwhile, Demencia, though based off [[DracoInLeatherPants villain-worshiping fangirls]] in general, was also inspired by the girl who introduced him to {{anime}}.
