Factual error: "IParty with Victorious" is shown after the episode "iOMG". The thing is, anything that happened in "iOMG" never happened in the episode "IParty with Victorious". "IParty with Victorious" should have been shown first, not "iOMG".

Other mistake: At the beginning, when everyone is watching Shelby fighting on TV, the timer is going too slow. According to the timer, the fight ends at 2:53, which is only 7 seconds of fighting, yet the fight was way longer than that.
Trivia: In "iGo To Japan", when Carly, Sam and Freddie are trying to get into the awards show, there is a guard holding a signboard with various pictures and messages on it. One of the pictures is of executive producer Dan Schneider. (00:01:15)
Question: I need someone from across the pond to help settle an argument between me and my wife. In the episode "i Rock the Vote", Wade Collins repeatedly uses the term "hob knocker." My kids asked, "What's a 'hob knocker'?" I said that it was something they made up that sounds somewhat British, probably insulting, and possibly vulgar. My wife insists that she has heard it somewhere else. So, for the record, what, if anything, does "hob knocker" mean?

Answer: In direction translation it means 'Mischievous Spirit'. 'Hob' as in HobGoblin means clown or prankster, and 'Knocker' was an old age term for Poltergeists in mines. Miners would often complain of hearing knocking sounds down mines when there was no-one else down there, hence 'Knocker'. It's not a regular English expression though.
