Trivia[]
- Alfe, Horace, and Roba are all voiced by Ben Jones, but Alfe and Roba sounded completely different here than they do in the Adult Swim pilot and the Cartoon Network series.
- This was because it's one of Ben Jones's earliest animations made, as he began development on it since he was a kid in 1983, but didn't complete it until 2006.
- Sidenote, Horace's voice is exactly the same as it was in the Adult Swim pilot "Neon Knome".
- Horace's rear is shown and modestly censored naked women is the only appearance of nudity in a episode, if you don't count Alfe's rear being shown in the Adult Swim pilot "Neon Knome".
- This was during Ben Jones' time working on the MTV show Wonder Showzen with PFFR. So, it could be likely that he would've pitched Alfe to MTV through MTV2, but MTV declined the offer.
- This isn't an pilot for The Problem Solverz because it was said on Paper Rad's information page on their website for it to be for a fake TV show called Alfe.
- This is the only episode of The Problem Solverz characters to use the f-word twice, or the s-word once.
- This was released on the Paper Rad DVD Trash Talking on Load Records in 2006.
- This episode shows Alfe and Roba dressing up as girls and playing with dolls when Roba is ashamed to be called a girl in Neon Knome.
- This makes reference to pop culture icons such as Seinfeld, the Teletubbies, The Muppets Babies, and Garfield,
- The teddy bear with a television on their stomach is a reference to the show Teletubbies
