YMMV / The Brave

• Harsher in Hindsight: "Pilot" reveals that al-Nusra Front leader Burhan Baghdadi survived an airstrike via JDAM in Syria. This is true in real life since Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is said to be alive despite claims that he was killed in Iranian and Russian-led commmando raids/airstrikes in Syria.^note He later died in 2019 in Syria during an anti-ISIL operation.
  • The two-part episodes "Desperate Times" and "Desperate Measures," set in a paranoid security state Iran, take on an even darker tone after the massive protests and riots that erupted all across the country in late December 2017.
