    • Trivia
      The show won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Writing in a Variety or Music Program after it had been canceled.
    • Goofs
      The timestamps on Ben's video diary segments never increment, even though the individual segments usually last more than a minute. This is probably due to the fact that they were added in post-production, and weren't a result of a real camcorder's time/date stamp.
    • Crazy credits
      In the closing credits, John F. O'Donohue was listed as a guest star although he appeared in every episode.

    Pure Genius
    Ben Stiller is the funniest man in all of TV/Movies. This show was so clever and so witty that it puts all other sketch-comedy shows to shame. His "Amish COPS" and "Advantage: Agassi" were particularly hysterical skits. Like many other fans, I am disappointed that it was cancelled so quickly. I would give ANYTHING to have Stiller's show back. It was easily the best show of all time.
