* ThoseWackyNazis: The announcer for "Up Late with [=McBain=]", for no apparent reason, is Obergruppenführer Wolfcastle, a man in an SS officer uniform. Since he looks elderly and has the same last name as [=McBain=]'s actor [[TheAhnold Rainier Wolfcastle,]] this was possibly a reference to the then-recent controversies surrounding [[Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger Arnold Schwarzenegger's]] father who was a member of the NSDAP during WWII. However, while Rainer seems fine with having a cast member of his show appear in an SS uniform; Arnold in RealLife does not condone his father's association with the Nazi party.
