- TriviaIn an early "Super Dave" sketch, Super Dave (Bob Einstein) attempted to overcome being crushed by a wrecking ball dropped on his head, by repeating the word "Balloonball". The result, at the end of the sketch, was Super Dave's helmeted head, with two sneakers poking out underneath. The sketch was so popular that for a period the Showtime network used a cartoon icon of Super Dave's head on two feet in ads for the show.
- Citas
Morley Wolfe: If I may, sir, this is a very touchy question: God created man, and God created woman... what about the homosexual?
Malcolm Cooper: Hey, man, don't look at me. I dress like this 'cause I have to!
- Versiones alternativasThere are two versions of "Bizarre." One version contains nudity (mostly topless women) and swearing. By all indications, this version only appeared on Showtime in the U.S. This version was probably produced especially for Showtime, as it appears that, even in Europe, the below "censored" version was shown. The other version "bleeps" out the swear words and when a nude scene comes up, it shows a different camera angle (such as viewing the girl from the back so you can't see her breasts). However, rare skits that involved a woman being naked below the waist, just ended quite abruptly. This is the more common version and was the version aired in U.S. syndication. This version has been seen as recently as 1999 in Canada.

Opinión destacada
This show ran for a few years on HBO and later went into syndication. Hosted by the great comedian John Byner (who was very prominent in the late '70s & early '80s - notably as "Detective Donoghue" on "Soap" - but rather forgotten today), it was most notable for two things: it was the first sketch comedy show to regularly feature nudity (busty topless women often figured as punch lines in racy blackouts - this was cable, after all); and, it was where gifted comic writer Bob Einstein (brother of Albert Brooks) created his popular character "Super Dave Osbourne," the daredevil with extremely bad luck. Indeed, Super Dave became a minor cult phenomena in the '80s, the character's existence extending even after "Bizarre" bit the dust (much as Cassandra Peterson's "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark" continued to flourish after "Movie Macabre" was cancelled). It was a very funny show which will probably never see the light of day again, but, if it pops up in syndication (with the nudity sliced out, of course), check it out - it's funny without bare breasts!
