* The 10-pointer is titled "Water Bombs" even though Jeff explicitly states that he’s dropping **paint** balloons, not water balloons

Episode 114: Sydney’s talent is bur**n**ing the ABCs rather than bur**p**ing them

Episode 115:

* Keegan’s talent is listed as “gastronome”, but it is never directly stated by Jeff as such, only acknowledging him liking food that doesn’t smell like it should.
* It states for the KO Round "in Sudden Death... Madison... misses. Spiro doesn't", yet he started sudden death by a mismatch of his own.

Episode 120: The site mentions, "Danny and Zee are tied with 70" when only Zee had 70 while Danny had 60.

Episode 122: Megan is misspelled “Meg**h**an” throughout Level 1, but was spelled correctly in the rest of the recap

Episode 132 (Nick Stars S1-2):

* Just like 131, the contestants’ shows are listed instead of their descriptions.

#### **Season 3**

Episode 307: Claims that the O’Days and the Villas got out in Level 2 with the Silvias taking on the O’Briens in the KO Round. In reality, the O’Days were the team in the KO Round, with the Silvias getting out in L2.
