- The hosts say Charlie Sheen was considered for Brian Flanagan, which makes sense, and that Robin Williams also was, perhaps when the character was older.
- IMDb suggests every white actor of the late 80s was considered; only Charlie Sheen is believed.
- The hosts say Heather Graham was offered Jordan Mooney but declined because she was committed to License to Drive with Corey Haim.
- Asked whether the movie is better with Shue or a young Heather Graham, the answer is that it is great with Shue, and another agrees.
- The hosts say Molly Ringwald apparently turned down Jordan Mooney as well.
