* WhatCouldHaveBeen: A ''very'' early pitch for Patton Oswalt's character still had him as a LoonyFan, but of ''Discord''. Specifically, one of [[RootingForTheEmpire pre-reformation Discord]] trying to invoke WeWantOurJerkBack.

* ActorAllusion:
** Oswalt's role as a nit-picky fan is similar to his infamous "Star Wars Filibuster" he performed on ''Series/ParksAndRecreation''.
** He's also famous for his hatred of the ''Star Wars'' prequels, and Quibble's initial explanation of why he thinks the "original trilogy" is so much better could easily apply to that series.

* WordOfGod: Oswalt's involvement came out of [[http://www.equestriadaily.com/2016/07/how-patton-oswalt-came-to-guest-star-on.html Jim Miller tossing him a direct message on Twitter out of the blue]] after Oswalt mentioned watching the show with his daughter and was impressed with the show (in September 2014). From there, they worked out the agreements and developed the plot for the episode to fit his character into. Oswalt's dialog was recorded separately from the rest of the principle cast in a UsefulNotes/LosAngeles studio sometime in May 2015.

* RealitySubtext: The In-universe BrokenBase over the ''JustForFun/DaringDo'' series is drenched in it, with fans disagreeing over whether the first three books or the ones afterward (i.e., [=MLP:FiM=] pre or post Twilicorn) are better.
