* AluminumChristmasTrees: Episode four features an interesting one involving a patent infringement suit being filed in a minor Texas community with a reputation as a favorable jurisdiction for patent plaintiffs. As patent law in the US is a federal issue, it must be tried by one of the federal district courts in a state. Given that these are generally located in major cities, it may come as as surprise to some to learn that Callisto is a NoCommunitiesWereHarmed version of Marshall, Texas. Officially based in the minor city of Tyler, the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas divides its proceedings between 5 courts, each located to (in theory) serve a set of surrounding counties. One of these happens to be Marshall, a rural community of about 23,000 that has decided roughly one in four patent suits in the United States over the past few decades, due in large part to the exact sort of convinient trial rules and statistically high favoring of the plaintiff depicted in the episode.

** This extends to [[spoiler:the prosecution of Leo Craddick for Kaminsky's murder, which is treated by the defence team as a blatant example of police racism even though he had previously yelled at the victim that he would make him pay for imprisoning his father, a man roughly fitting his description was seen fleeing the scene and his palm print was on Kaminsky's car. The audience may know that Leo didn't do it, but from the perspective of someone who doesn't know that like the ADA it seems like a pretty strong case. Mitigated somewhat near the end of the episode when the ADA is willing to drop the charges after finding evidence implicating a pair of DirtyCops and tells Bull that she's upset because she was genuinely sure that he was guilty.]]

Actor trivia shoehorn with bad grammar.

* HilariousInHindsight: The Episode "E.J" VictimOfTheWeek is Adam Bunson. who is played by Josh Dela Cruz and is killed by an apparently sentient car. Come 2022, and Josh is starring in [[Film/BluesBigCityAdventure Blue's Big City Adventure]], whose beginning also involves a sentient car that causes chaos by accident, with even the expressions they make while the car looks about to make a mistake are similar. It doesn't help that Adam's friend Ginny treats the engine as if he were a real person and has to pass on an Aesop that even sentient-looking objects can't replace the people she's loved (including Adam) when the movie's plot involves Josh bringing inanimate objects to life by treating them as if they were human.
