* CompleteMonster: Season 2: [[TheHeavy Batu]] serves as the "acting" Great Khan for [[spoiler:[[BigBad Violet]]]], where he would send the latter's army to attack numerous locations in his search for the Spirit Banner of UsefulNotes/GenghisKhan, leading to countless bloodshed and deaths throughout the world. Batu would also break Simon Hardwick out of prison to force Hardwick to aid him in his search for the Banner, branding Hardwick when the latter tried making a move behind Batu's back, and later killing off Hardwick's group of white-hat hackers so they wouldn't get in his way. [[BadBoss Batu]] shows the rest of his men this kind of cruelty, [[FedToTheBeast feeding them to crocodiles]] should they fail him. Batu's also believes that the Spirit Banner contained a virus that would kill off anyone that doesn't have Genghis Khan's DNA, a virus which Batu intends to unleash onto the world to wipe out everyone he deems lacking in superior genes.

* AndYouThoughtItWouldFail: Reviews for the show weren't good and the consensus seemed to be it would be a forgettable summer series. Instead, the show ended up getting nearly 6 million viewers for its premiere and would add more with DVR and online playbacks. This resulted in CBS ordering a second season before the first was even finished.
