Horror Fiction in Seven Spooky Steps - S3-E5

Trivia: This episode features a pay-off for a joke that was established in the first two seasons. In season one, the character Professor Slater mentions the name "Beetlejuice" while trying to recall Britta's name. In season two, Britta refers to Jeff's underwear as "stripey Beetlejuice numbers" during a conversation. And in this episode, Annie says that Britta has the "Beetlejuice" soundtrack on her computer. As Annie says the name, the character Beetlejuice is visible briefly walking by a window in the background, his name having been said three times. (In the film "Beetlejuice", he is summoned once his name is spoken three times).

Biology 101 - S3-E1

Trivia: Not really a mistake, but something amusing to watch for. During the big opening musical number, watch Britta's face closely when Chang runs in. Right as he runs by her, her eyes squint in pain for a very brief instant and she reflexively mouths the word "Ow!" It's hard to see what's going on because it goes by quick, but it looks like the actor portraying Chang either accidentally kicked her in the shin or stepped on her foot as he ran in, and she reacted.

Season 3 generally

Trivia: Reportedly, the Subway restaurant company was supportive of the show using the sandwich shop in Season 3, despite the company being depicted as corrupt and megalomaniacal, even "buying out" a person's life in one episode to serve as a constant spokesperson.

Basic Lupine Urology - S3-E17

Trivia: In this episode, a parody of "Law and Order", the botanist who exams the yam, a parody of a medical examiner, is played by Leslie Hendrix. Hendrix played Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers, the medical examiner in several of the Law and Order series.

Biology 101 - S3-E1

Trivia: This episode aired Sept 22, 2011 where Abed learns season 3 of the (real life) TV show "Cougar Town" is moving to mid-season, which he fears means an upcoming cancellation. Abed and Troy say "6 seasons and a movie" in regards to the show (a line previously used in reference to "The Cape", another favourite show of his). While no movie was made, "Cougar Town" did move to mid-season in 2012 and lasted for 6 seasons.

Interpretive Dance - S1-E14

Continuity mistake: You can see the play director telling a pianist with grey hair to "play something modern." About twenty seconds later when Britta throws her tea hat off towards the pianist, however, it's an entirely different piano player now, that has brown/black hair. (00:17:10)

Comparative Religion - S1-E12

Jeff Winger: To me, religion is like Paul Rudd. I see the appeal, and I would never take it away from anyone. But I would also never stand in line for it.

Answer: The implication is that Jeff will still be teaching at Greendale after Annie and Abed leave. As for who became vice dean? It's never shown, since it's not really important to the series.
