* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: It began as a public access show titled ''Flights of Fantasy'', and was focused on the collectible arts, as creator and host George Wood is a massive comic book fan and collector. They originally introduced segments focused on video games as time-filler, since they shared the same "geek" audience the show was aimed at. But as the series progressed, the games grew more prominent and elaborate until they were the primary focus, even getting briefly renamed to ''The Video Game Show''. Indeed, when clips from it were officially re-released online as ''Gaming in The Clinton Years'', only the video game segments were featured, and fans have had to rely on bootleg tapes for the rest of the show as it first aired.

** George has an unashamed bias for Nintendo products. During the fourth generation he exclusively covered games for the SNES and never touched the Genesis (and it's telling that the only other console he looked at this generation was, of all things, the Virtual Boy), and in the fifth generation it's pretty obvious that he has a much more critical eye for [=PlayStation=] games than for the Nintendo 64. Expect any non-Nintendo game to get unfavorably compared to a Nintendo product for any reason he can come up with.
