- Replacing Robert Wagner is floated, but the casting pays off when Rob Lowe is put in as Number Two, a Robert Wagner 2.0.
- A point is started about the gentleman who played Random Task. — Chris Ryan
- That actor is called a complicated figure, to be covered later.
- An actress named on air as Ali Larder is proposed as the lead fembot; the fembots needed one future star, and Helen Mirren is jokingly suggested.
- It is odd the role did not go to Pamela Anderson; Cindy Margolis was the lower-tier version at the time, and someone reportedly auditioned for a part, perhaps Elizabeth Hurley's.
- Heather Graham as the lead fembot would have cost the sequel Felicity Shagwell.
- The Irish henchman (the Lucky Charms guy) should be replaced by a young host then working at Newbury Comics; Bono is joked about, and edgy British method actors such as Gary Oldman or Tim Roth are proposed.
