- "Famous Four" is the second season's MBC episode where it contains two parts.
- Where is Mr. Fusster and Mr. Bitty in this episode? What about John? They should be informed that there are aliens invading Singletown.
- The episode's title isn't based or parody of Famous 5: On The Case, Marathon's another animated series or Fantastic Four.
- MBC's new weapon, Emergency Blasters are introduced.
- There's something wrong with the animation: When Danny gets paranoid inside the clubhouse, he has an Emergency Blaster on his left hand. The next scene, that weapon turns into a regular Blaster.
- Chris didn't explain in his video on how the new MBC formed...or how he met Mr. Smith and Cathy.
- MBC Rule number one - "The MBC must stay secret".
- MBC Rule number three - "MBC members must always help each other".
- Cathy used the term "12,000 planets" (the first one is in "Keep Your Eye On The Nebulak"). Another one is marshmallows (first used in the episode "Wrong Number"). I find out that Marshmallow is the modern medicine herb called Althaea officinalis (It's also called Marshmallow).
- Danny says to his classmates that the MBC beat Glor Glenemore near the statue of Addison Single. If you watch "Forget-Me-Stone", they actually beat Glor in the school.
- Tina (from the episode "Snack Time") speaks clearly now. It sounds like the voice is male, but she's actually female.
- Principal Rollins plays her toy tanks attacking each other. Isn't she too old for those?
- The Galactic Commander calls Sam, "Samantha", while he calls Chris, "Chris".
- Since this show is aimed for kids, Cathy says the word "cram" instead of "kill".
- Danny dislikes normal life without MBC.
- Chris is able to get some emergency power supply under the MBC's supercomputer.
- It's not a good idea for a Galactic Commander to swallow the security key, or Danny's Mr. Fluffyboots.
- ...and Mr. Fluffyboots is already destroyed in the episode "Mindreader".
- For what I remember, when I watched that episode in the Philippines (Q channel 11) , the "to be continued..." sentence is in white arial font. Then again, when I watched that episode but this time on Disney XD, that sentence is in original MBC font.
