Trivia / Mimpi Metropolitan

• The Danza: Dian Sidik as Bambang's cousin Dian.
• Dawson Casting:
  • The 19/20-years-old main trio are played by mid-20s actors. In Bambang's case (whose actor is the oldest at 28), people in-universe also think that Bambang doesn't look like his age.
  • Juna is 19 years old according to his ID and 21 years old according to dialogue, but is played by 24-years-old Harris Vriza.
  • Dian is said to be Bambang's younger cousin, but his actor is much older than Bambang's (39 years old).
• Descended Creator: The series' assistant director Kiki Adrian has a recurring role as Ada Azab Dalam Cerita assistant director (and later, main director) Akbar.
• Dyeing for Your Art: Madkucil shaves his iconic curly hair for the role of straight-haired Bambang.
• Irony: Medanese Alan is played by Javanese Rifat Sungkar while Javanese Bambang and Prima are played by Medanese Madkucil and Sakurta Ginting.
• Keep Circulating the Tapes: Most episodes has "Uncut Version", a compilation of Hilarious Outtakes and general funny behind-the-scene stuff, which were uploaded to the series's social media accounts. Now, that those accounts are closed, the only way to watch it is by looking for reposts.
• Missing Trailer Scene: An early teaser has scenes showing Prima working as motorcycle taxi driver and Bambang parking a motorcycle. Neither scenes appear in the series (although they do those jobs at some points).
• Promoted to Opening Titles: Or to ending credis in this case, since the show only credits the main cast. Juan Hadipoespito (Alexi) is promoted in episode 38 after being a recurring character since the first episode.
• Significant Double Casting: Denisio Perez plays both Mami Bibir's late husband David and his lookalike Richard in episode 41 and 42, causing drama when Mami Bibir meets Richard.
• Special Guest: Agatha Chelsea, Yayan Ruhian and Maudy Koesnaedi have guest starred as themselves.
• What Could Have Been:
  • This video and an early photo show that Alan's wig are originally pink rather than black.
  • According to production assistant Baharudin Robbani, Bambang and Prima's names were swapped early in the production. In that version, Bambang was nicknamed Bams, likely because he would be the celebrity-wannabe there.
