After Leonard's frozen pizza review, a message appears very briefly on the screen and reads as follows:
"First off, would someone please explain to me why, in the age of digital streaming, I have to pay late fees for the movies I rent. I'm a responsible person, I pay my taxes. Seriously, I'm not trying to be a dick about this. I really want to know. It seems to me that the only competitive advantage these rental stores have over the internet is face-to-face customer service. So why are your working so hard to make me not want to talk to you, just because I kept Dan In Real Life a couple extra days. There were a lot of discussion features, and I didn't ask my daughter for a blu-ray player not to see them all. Oh, and by the way? What happened to the days when these rental jockeys would actually WATCH the movies they have, so they could give you recommendations instead of just standing there like "Duh doy, yeah. I guess there's probably nudity in Dan In Real Life." Well, guess what, Chelsea. THERE ISN'T. That Juliette Binoche though. Va-va-Va-va-VOOM. That's one frozen pizza that gets MY oven going at 350 degrees. Anyway, hit me up on the comment side, unless you're a hater. Or catch me on twitter at @leonard_GCC. And remember: see something, say something. Watch the throne.

One of the Germans says to Jeff, "I wish there was a word to describe the pleasure I feel at viewing misfortune." The word "Schadenfreude," which comes from German, means "misfortune-joy," or, "joy at seeing another's misfortune." Psychology considers Schadenfreude, like other malicious emotions, to be a normal part of the human psyche, but, of course, it can become maladaptive or pathological if a person can only derive joy in this fashion.
The writer Chris Kula says in the commentary that the idea for suddenly becoming an Anime style cartoon was Dan Harmon's. All the other writers loved it but thought he was kidding, but he was totally onboard with finding a way to make it happen.
After Annie suggests she impersonate Christian Bale to replace the missing DVD commentary track, Troy tells her "Don't think too much." Nigel Havers yells "Try not to think so much!" at a young Christian Bale in Empire of the Sun (1987).
