The Series

  • Harsher in Hindsight: The episode with James Freud. Freud had recently recovered from alcoholism and had written a book about it; when he appeared, the panel made a number of jokes about it, including asking him if he was still drinking. Freud committed suicide due to alcoholism in 2010.
  • Ho Yay: Wil and Dave.
    Wil: I've never been to a gym, Dave.
    Dave: Well, how do you keep your... slim shape?
    Wil: (laughs) Dave, have you been looking at my arse?
    Dave: Wil Anderson does have an arse. Not that I look at it - whatever! Let's move on! But if I did, that would be okay as well! I don't know! (to Wil) D'ya wanna get married?
    • The official website used to contain behind the scenes photos with captions provided by the writers of the show. Nearly every one that featured Wil and Dave together would have a little bit of homoerotic subtext.
    • They also 'kissed' at Adam Richard's insistence during Dave's interview segment as Winona Ryder in 2002. Wil put his hand over Dave's mouth, but Dave seemed to be getting right into the groping...

The 2001 Film

  • Unintentional Period Piece: It's very obvious the movie is set in the early 2000's; Ruby and her friends use pagers to communicate rather than mobile phones (which are also scarce amongst the rest of the cast), some of the teen characters' clothing and hairstyles follow late 90's and early 2000's fashion trends, Ruby has an iBook G3 laptop which was launched in 1999 and discontinued in May 2001, and Ruby uses dial-up to connect to the internet, among others.
