Day of Infamy - S7-E10

Visible crew/equipment: After the shots of Olivia and John singing in the truck, when Mary Ellen wishes her parents were home, in the tracking shot as the camera moves past the vehicle, we can see reflections of equipment and the camera operator wearing a hat.

The Journey - S2-E1

Trivia: While Maggie MacKenzie and John-Boy are at the Mermaid Restaurant, when they both dance together Maggie envisions her long deceased husband, Michael MacKenzie, dancing with her instead of John-Boy. It is Earl Hamner Jr. who portrays Michael MacKenzie in this uncredited onscreen cameo during the scene (note teeth and facial features are identical).
