** The Vegas episode combines Boreanaz's role of Angel (who also spent time in Vegas) with a role Angel himself played as vampire stuck in the fifties, rat-pack style. Booth spikes his hair up, dons greaser clothes and suspenders, faking a Bronx accent outta GuysAndDolls.

* ShoutOut: Temperance Brennan's novels WhatCouldHaveBeen
** Cam was supposed to be killed off way back in season two and if season three hadn't been cut short, Zack would
have Kathy Reichs as been a main character, victim of the Gormogon.
** Supposedly, the Gormogon would have been [[spoiler:Sweets]]. In fact, the whole Gormogon arc was a string of [[WhatCouldHaveBeen What could have beens]] derailed by the Writer's Strike.
** This receives a MythologyGag in the Season 4 finale and [[AllJustADream alternate universe]] episode "The End in the Beginning":
-->'''[[spoiler:Sweets]]:''' Um, I mean the name of the band is Gormogon. Some people think I'm Gormogon, but I'm not.
** Season three was supposed to have
an inversion of real life.episode dealing with Booth's childhood. It was never made due to, again, the writer's strike.
** In season five, there was supposed to be a NoirEpisode. This was called off due to ''{{Fringe}}'' beating them to it.
