** In the scene where Seb pays the VPN with Fred's credit card, the sequence where Seb types the credit card's PIN was initially intended to be an OverlyLongGag. Fred explained in a live comment that this type of humor is very hard to get right, which is the reason the scene has been shortened.

The planned actress for the BigBad, French former politician [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nathalie_Kosciusko-Morizet Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet]] cast as herself, has been approached by Fred and expressed interest but won't be able to participate at the moment due to no longer living in Europe.

* One ''Papy Grenier'' episode was planned to be about ''Franchise/TombRaider''. However, Fred couldn't find a satisfactory script. After the bad reception of the ''Zelda'' episode, he knew he had to play a major role in the game's reenactment scenes. Problem: either he plays Lara Croft himself, which would be too awkward and distracting... or he plays a pervy cameraman who follows her around, but it would be difficult to write something around it. There eventually was a ''Tomb Raider''-themed video (released in June 2021), but it was a ''Joueur du Grenier'' test instead of a ''Papy Grenier''; The mid-review story features Fred as a male counterpart of Lara called "Laurent Croft" while the skits parodying the games have been made with an actress in the role.

to:

* Fred revealed he declined a proposition to make a ''Hogwart's Legacy'' live featuring James and Oliver Phelps (Fred and George's Weasley's actors in the ''Harry Potter'' movie), justifying he isn't fan of celebrity cameos for the sake of it, and the video would have been awkward since he didn't know what they could have chat about.

to:

* The original premise of the mid-review sketch of the ''Robocop'' episode was a ''Film/LeGendarmeDeSaintTropez'' pastiche where the gendarmerie brigade's new hire was Robocop. The idea was dropped because 1) Fred thought the main appeal of the ''Gendarme'' comedies was Creator/LouisDeFunes' acting, and their idea wouldn't work because Louis de Funès' counterpart was a stoic robot 2) parodying a comedy would be redundant.

Added DiffLines:

** In the same vein, Velma being a jaded alcoholic was much more prominent in the initial draft. Most of the scenes have been cut because this characterization was too monolithic, and turning kid-friendly protagonists into trashy characters was too cliché.
** Fred intended to borrow a Mystery Machine duplicate based on of the original cartoon's design, but Fred couldn't come to an agreement with its owner. In the released version, the van is a duplicate based on the live-action films' design.

** Before choosing to make a high-definition animated dog, alternate versions Scooby-Doo were considered, including a very cheap 3D asset, a Scooby-Doo which was present in-story and interacted with but was offscreen all the time, a Scoody-Doo played by ''a human actor'', and a Scooby-Doo who wasn't here (the Mid-Review Sketch being about the Scooby-Gang looking for him).

Fred tells in the behind-the-scenes comments that having a human actor behaving as a dog would be potentially insulting, and making something deliberately cheap while basing jokes on lampshading it's deliberately cheap is overused in ''Joueur du Grenier''.



** The initial draft had Fred and Daphne being very bitter toward each other due to having broken up a short while ago, which has been heavily toned down in the final version of the script (mostly limited to the actors' body language). Fred cut it because he felt it ruined the episode's ambiance, which was deliberately intended to be light-hearted.

* Texas Granger was supposed to be recruited by the party after they visit the wizardry school. The role has been reduced because Fred released she wouldn't be useful and was redundant with Professor Humblebundledore (as a character from the ''Harry Potter'' arc).

** The initial version of the Mid-Review Sketch was a reality TV following Dracula's children and their difficult relation with their father (Alucard being a vegan hipster and Dracula's daughter being a quiet teen glued to her phone) with a abrupt ending where two members of the Belmont family messily kill them.
