Show generally

Question: Why was Toad's color palette sometimes way different, primarily in the first couple of episodes? Why didn't they bother changing this with the final results? It's relatively inconsistent on what palette is used in each episode, despite the fact the more recognizable of the two (white mushroom with red spots along with a variety of coloring in clothes) is shown much more often than the other (red mushroom with white spots along with the majority of his clothes being red and white).

Season 10 generally

Question: Why does Clark keep burning his "S" symbol on the sides of buildings after saving someone? I get him doing it under the influence of red kryptonite, but at this point it just seems like vandalism that Superman would never do. Clark even saw Chloe having to scrub his mark off the wall of Watchtower, which wasn't an easy task. And if it's meant to be a symbol of hope against crime for the people of Metropolis, why burn it into the side of the refinery in Smallville after putting out the fire?

Question: At the end of the film, there is a series of clips and news articles covering the aftermath of the shootout. Does anyone know if the clips in the film are genuine news clips from the aftermath of the event or if they are filmed for the purpose of this movie? One shot shows 3 LAPD officers getting a medal presented to them, one shows footage of people taking gifts to the LAPD etc.

Question: In the 90's TV version, there's an extra scene where Tyler gives Andy a knife and says "A good soldier is always prepared" at the beginning. Later, they trade the knife back and forth. I could swear at the end of the TV version, when Tyler hands Andy the knife and he cuts Chucky's hand off, Tyler screamed "A good soldier is always prepared!" But that isn't on the "Deleted TV Scenes" on the new Shout Factory Blu-Ray. Anyone else remember that extra bit of dialogue, or am I misremembering?

Question: Why did the CDC group shoot the principle dead when he tries to tell them what's going on? Why can't they just tell John and Cassie what's going on before forcing them back into the school?

Don't Come Back Alive - S1-E4

Question: Mr. Partridge's new job does not start until next month, and they will not receive the insurance pay-out until Mrs. Partridge has been missing for seven years. But Mrs. Partridge says the landlord will evict them on Monday if the rent is not paid. So how does Mr. Partridge stay in the house? And how can they afford to get a secret apartment and new glasses for Mrs. Partridge?

J.J.'s Condition - S5-E19

Question: As JJ and his new love interest are discussing needing more money, after the idea of JJ getting a second job fails, JJ comes up with an idea saying to her, "No problem - you can get a part-time job" (which she refused to do). After JJ suggests her getting the part-time job, the audience started whooing and screaming loudly. What was it about the idea of her working that made the audience react that way?

Chapter 16: The Rescue - S2-E8

Question: What are those "prongs" appearing and disappearing on R2D2's shoulders? AFAIK they never appeared before in any life-action rendition of Star Wars material. I thought I remembered them from a Toy-R2 (Jabba's Sail Barge version where they aligned the accessory) but couldn't verify that. (00:37:10 - 00:37:50)

Question: How were the two Spanish galleons placed inside the cave?

Question: How did Ethan Hunt know he was going to switch places with Hugh at the end of the film requiring him to take two masks with him to swap different faces?

Bonjour Jean-Luc - S6-E24

Question: Why is this the Season Finale episode instead of a Season premiere episode? When we watch the first episode, Crazy Love, Jean-Luc is already a part of the main storyline. This episode would've been great because it not only gently introduced Jean-Luc and the upcoming new salon, as well as telling the backstory. Did they ever explain what their reason for this was?

Episode #1.2 - S1-E2

Question: How does Edith know that Mary and the Duke were in the men's quarters? I never saw her there. Only Bates sees them. Was she hiding? Bates wouldn't have told her.

Question: Weir makes a point of telling the reader the notes for the name "Adrian." Since he got the names from the movie Rocky, and since the theme song of that movie is "Eye of the Tiger", if I was Weir I would have made Adrian's name the first few notes (or the first few notes of the chorus) of that song. But I have no idea what "an A-below-middle-C major fifth, followed by an E-flat octave, and then a G-minor seventh" sounds like. Can anyone tell if these notes are from that song?

Question: Is Pedro actually Jake's biological son? I'm sure in the movie it mentions he wasn't and Agnes had him before meeting Jake.

Question: When Clouseau and Ponton are in line at the airport. Is that Terrell Owens behind them? He only appears in a few shots. If it is, any idea why he's there? Is there a deleted scene with him?

Question: Regarding the Tokyo Rose broadcasts: is there one that ends with a brief snippet of "I'll Remember April?"
