  • Asked for nits, nothing is written down, and the producer Craig had been asked for help on the shared document; the music complaint has already been made and will not be beaten further.
  • The earlier nit: the way the movie is scored is one host's biggest beef, way too much music, blues into an eighties song into Foo Fighters with the years not adding up, Scorsese putting in every CD he loves with nobody able to tell him no, from the same guy who thought The Wire should have been all hip-hop instead of the Tom Waits open; the others defend it as the arc of pop music and a conscious statement about excess.
  • A little nitpick: Bernthal's mugshot lists him over six feet, but he is listed at 5'11' and a host who stood next to him doubts it, with a joke about NBA.com roster heights versus combine measurements in shoes or flats.
