Season and episode's notes
- The "Historical Capsule" segment in Season 1, episode 9 incorrectly states that Florence Nightingale founded the Elizabeth Arden cosmetics company in 1930. In fact, the company was founded by Florence Nightingale Graham.[3]
- The background music in the "Pipe Organs" segment of Season 2, episode 2 is called "Variations for Organ on 'O Filii et Filiæ', Opus 49, No. 2" by French organist and composer Alexandre Guilmant.
- The "Techno Flash" segment was removed from the third season, and the "Historical Capsule" segment was removed from the fifth season.[4]
- In the U.S. version of the show, the "Condoms" segment in Season 28, episode 1 is replaced with the "Rubber Gloves" one, which is a duplicate of the same segment in Season 21, episode 1.
- The Science Channel in the U.S. lists the seasons[5] differently from the original Canadian version of the show:
