* ArtEvolution: Though in general the series has gotten progressively more advanced looking as it has gone on, this episode marks one of the more noticeable changes due to it being the first one animated on Maya instead of [=PowerAnimator=]. The colors are generally softer than they were before (particularly noticeable with the color brown), there are fewer shadow effects, and most fire and explosions are made to look more realistic than they were before.

* StylisticSuck: The parody of ''Series/TheDrewCarryShow'' that we see during the Night of a Million Shits event is really shoddy. It doesn't have any jokes, story, or even what could be called actual dialogue. It's just Drew and Mimi saying whatever they can cram an S-bomb into.
