Trivia: The title of this episode is an initialism for "Big Dick on Campus." Although numerous episodes of this series had titles that were double entendres, the network censors apparently felt this one was a little too risqué.

Dick Soup for the Soul - S6-E16
Audio problem: When Tommy is talking about how he recruited Sally to help him get into the fraternity, but has gone mad with power, at one point it switches to a wide shot and you can see his mouth isn't moving. (00:19:28)

Trivia: When Sally is giving everyone instructions to look for the missing Dick, her speech mirrors that of Tommy Lee Jones from The Fugitive (searching every outhouse, hen house, doghouse, etc). She even mimics his Texas accent.

Audio problem: In the epilogue when Harry is singing for the garage band, before he takes the guitar and smashes it, you can see the guitar player is strumming, but only the bass guitar and drum parts are audible. (00:21:20)

Proud Dick - S2-E13
Other mistake: When Dick and Sally are playing with the cat toy in the kitchen, they make a lot of joyous noise while doing so. When the shot changes, we see Mary coming up the stairs to a completely silent home, and she can't seem to locate anyone until Harry pulls her into the closet. The kitchen is only a few feet away from the stairway, so not only should Dick and Sally's voices have still been very audible, but at the very least, Sally should have been in Mary's direct line of sight. (00:15:53 - 00:16:20)

Revealing mistake: When Harry lands in the yard, you can tell he lands on a crash mat, as the grass beneath him shuffles. (00:01:15)

Trivia: According to French Stewart during a 3rd Rock from the Sun reunion Q and A at the 2021 Vulture Festival, he and Joseph Gordon-Levitt could never get through the scene where Harry spits baby food at the baby without the two actors breaking character and laughing hysterically.

Other mistake: When Dennis Rodman sees Harry, Tommy, and Sally at the hardware store, he addresses all three by name and asks what they are doing on Earth. If he didn't previously know they were on Earth, then he couldn't have known they were going by those names, as they chose those names after arriving at Earth. Harry even mentioned in a later episode that the names Tommy, Dick, and Harry were chosen by chance when they saw the phrase "Every Tom, Dick, and Harry" written down.

Scaredy Dick - S3-E5
Continuity mistake: Before the offscreen trick-or-treater starts throwing eggs into Mary's house, you can see she already has egg stains on her jacket from previous takes. (00:17:40)

Dick: Welcome to Rusty's. How may I serve you?
Customer: Um, how do you make your burgers?
Dick: Excellent question. First, a clamp comes down onto the cow's head, forcing it onto a conveyor belt, where a prod is inserted into the cow's rectum, electrocuting it.
Customer: Give me two.
Dick: Thank you, and remember, at Rusty's, E. Coli is not on the menu.
Dougie: Stop saying that! (00:10:57)

The Columbian: I hear you're looking to, uh, liquidate.
Dick: Uh huh.
The Columbian: That's good, 'cause I'm looking to acquire.
Sally: Listen here lady, we're not giving these away. We're looking for top dollar.
The Columbian: Oh, I got top dollar. I got better than top dollar.
Dick: Well then by default, wouldn't that become top dollar?

Jeff: It's an ancient Ukranian quilting thimble. There's some writing on the outside. I didn't have time to get it translated.
Mary: Well, you've been so busy with the book.
Dick: Oh uh, speaking of time, don't you have a meeting?
Jeff: Right. I gotta go. Bye.
Mary: I'm gonna have to find someone who can translate Ukranian.
Dick: Oh, that's not Ukranian, it's Turkish. Look, there's a diacritical mark over the "O." [Reads in Turkish.]
Mary: Well, what does it mean?
Dick: "May these always point me toward the spoils of war." This isn't a thimble, it's Turkish nipple armor.
