Trivia / Planet Dolan

• Actor Existence Limbo: Shima's actress went missing in mid-2016 and as a result, the character was absent for several episodes until one, for which she recorded her dialogue months prior and ended with the announcement that nobody could get in touch with her. It was believed to be computer trouble at first before it became unanimously agreed that Shima simply decided to step away from it all, notably due to suffering from anxiety.
  • With Doopie having left Planet Dolan, it's not real clear who'll voice her character "Pecan" or if they'll keep using that character.
• Author's Saving Throw: Two of them.
  • On the SUPER PLANET DOLAN channel, Dolan acknowledged fans's concerns in regards to Shima, and while he has given the same response (they don't know what happened to her but know from the last talk they had with her, she's fine) and it seemed that after this video, the channels stopped using Shima's character as a way to not get fans's hopes up that she was back.
  • The other saving throw is Nixxom dropping the dark and gravely voice when he does countdowns and going for a more normal and calm voice.
• Real Song Theme Tune: ''Sugar Plum Dark Mix'', a remixed version of Tchaikovsky's Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy, serves as the outro theme for most videos.
• Reality Subtext/Real Life Writes the Plot:
  • From what can be inferred by the recent Reddit Stories videos, Hellbent and Pandora are no longer together. Apparently, this was confirmed in a podcast.
  • Though it was long after the fact, they stopped using Shima's char after she stepped away from Planet Dolan.
  • After Tolop passed away, they stopped using her character.
• Retool: Since around 2016 onward, a lot of their videos are more Reddit-focused, drifting away from their usual countdown videos.
• Romance on the Set: Two confirmed couples among the crew include Danger Dolan and Golden Gooby, and Hellbent and Pandora.
• Rule 34 – Creator Reactions: Shima's actress doesn't like the NSFW fanart of her character too much, though isn't too bothered about it. The only thing she does mind is posting links on the comments section, as there's kids also watching the videos.
