Trivia / Helluva Boss S1E1 "Murder Family"

• Blooper:
  • Loona’s thumb first appears on the front of the picture of the family Moxxie was working up the courage to shoot, but in the very next shot from behind the photo, her thumb is suddenly positioned to be behind it.
  • The only thing that can describe Vivian Nixon's extremely odd delivery of the line, "The expression is 'kick some ass', Blitzo." She emphasizes "ass" even though "kick" was the part of the expression Blitzo got wrong, and she says Blitzo's name after a very long pause and with a tone of confusion, as though she thinks the last word of the line is a non-sequitur rather than the name of the character she's addressing. As Nixon's casting seems to have happened last-minute — it was announced that post-pilot Millie would be played by Jenny Bingham, making it a near-total surprise to the audience when she was played by Nixon instead — it's possible she didn't have enough prep time to learn the context of her lines or the other characters' names.
  • An examination of the layout of the small school house in the beginning proves it to be . . . confusing at best.
    • Based on several establishing shots of what’s outside the windows facing the parking lot, as well as the interior structure & dimensions compared to the exterior, suggests that it is a one room building, but the door inside the schoolroom leads to a hallway.
    • The door to the seemingly one room school is a single door from the inside near the front of the room, but a pair of double doors from the outside, near where the back of the room would be.
    • Assuming that the hallway somehow makes sense, this means there are three large interior windows that look into the hallway, at three other identical exterior windows, that somehow have the same lighting.
    • The hallway disappears and is replaced with a solid wall when Mrs.Mayberry is heard revving up a chainsaw.
    • The mysterious hallway & possible interior window situation gets even more confusing in the next few shots, as we can see the hallway-wall from the open door, but a clear shot of the outside from the nearby windows, a view which, due to perspective, should technically include bars from the exterior windows as well, assuming the hallway exists.
    • There are windows on every wall, but the outside shot establishes that what should be the back wall of the classroom simply has a shutter-style window at the top, while the rest is solid, but inside shots show it to have windows just as big as the others.
    • A single shot near the beginning of the song shows one of the back wall windows to have trees almost right outside it, but the exterior establishing shot shows no such trees nearby.
