Did You Know?
| Trivia | Unlike the first two seasons, the whole third season was written in advance, and scenes from different episodes were shot in a row, based on the location and actors' availability. Jon Cassar and Seth MacFarlane split the direction duties for the 10 episodes so they could work like that. See more » |
| Goofs | The universal translator is treated as a magic Babelfish, allowing anyone to understand the language of someone the Union has never met before, which means that no samples of their language would be in the translation computer files. This hand-wave is carried over from Star Trek. See more » |
