** The cast had a live table read of the episode "How to Have an Orgasm" during the 2019-20 coronavirus outbreak as a fundraiser. Not all stars were able to participate, so as a result Jenny Slate filled in for Kristen Wiig as Jessi's vagina, Brandon Jay Armstrong filled in for Jordan Peele as the ghost of Duke Ellington, and Kroll played Jay's pitbull Featuring Ludacris, among others.
** On June 24, 2020, The co-creators and Creator/JennySlate announced via social media that the role of Missy would be recast with a person of color [[DistancedFromCurrentEvents in light]] of [[UsefulNotes/BlackLivesMatterMovement the George Floyd protests.]] On August 28th, it was announced that Ayo Edebiri will be Missy's replacement. Slate voices Missy for the first 8 episodes of Season 4 due to having already recorded her lines at that point before announcing her decision, with Edebiri replacing her at the end of the penultimate episode "Horrority House" as well as replacing Slate's spot in the opening credits in the season finale.
** In Season 5, Chloe Fineman replaced Kat Dennings as the voice of Leah.
* PosthumousCredit: Charles Bradley, whose cover of "[[Music/BlackSabbath Changes]]" is the theme song, died one week before the series premiere.

* WriteWhatYouKnow: The show is largely based on Nick Kroll and Andrew Goldberg's memories of their own respective puberties. Like the character he's named for, Goldberg also once ejaculated in his pants while dancing with a girl when he was a teenager. Likewise, according to Kroll and Goldberg, Jessi's FirstPeriodPanic is partially based off of one of Kroll and Goldberg's childhood friend's first period, who, like Jessi, also got her first period during a class trip to the Statue of Liberty.

* DawsonCasting: None of the actors playing teenagers are under the age of 30[[note]]or, in the case of Missy's new voice actress, under the age of 25, and Natalie, who was voiced by a 19-year-old in her debut.[[/note]]. This, plus the show being animated, justifies a certain level of detachment which allows the show to go as far as it does with it's subject matter that it couldn't possibly do in live-action with child actors. Lampshaded in the season 1 finale.
