* ReportsOfMyDeathWereGreatlyExaggerated: One episode airing in 1998 had the news program about to go to air when Raji learns that Creator/BuddyHackett has died. They make a quick mention at the start of the show, then the guests start to reminisce about him. They end up turning the entire episode into a tribute to Hackett. The last two minutes show the following night's episode where Pearce has to apologetically inform viewers that Hackett was still alive. Hackett himself then appears to comment on the mistake.
