* BudgetBustingElement: At the end of the song "Love Kernels," Rebecca breaks the fourth wall to say that the artsy music video, with its various scene changes and costumes to symbolize Rebecca's LoveMartyr status, ate up the show's production budget, so they now have to recast Darryl with a broom. WordOfGod confirmed this song actually ''did'' use a good chunk of the production budget.
-->'''Creator/RachelBloom''': But yes, that number was expensive -- we went out to the desert for a day in preproduction to film those sweeping desert scenes, we built another set on stage with all that lavish, beautiful furniture. The costumes alone, I mean especially that cactus costume, it's expensive.

* AcclaimedFlop: Almost ''everyone'' who watches it seems to love the show: critics wrote glowing reviews and Rachel Bloom won both a Golden Globe and a Critics' Choice Award. And yet, only one episode, "That Text Was Not Meant for Josh!", gotten over a million viewers (1.02 million). One episode, "My Mom, Greg's Mom and Josh's Sweet Dance Moves!", got exactly one million, and every other episode got less than a million. That means it was one of the lowest-rated shows on the ''CW'', a network already known for low-rated shows. When the CW renewed the show for its third season in 2017, it became the lowest-rated show to ever be renewed by a major American broadcast network. "Ever" as in "''the entire history of the television medium.''"
