===== Trivia =====
==== [META] ====
  * This is the first Oscar special on the HEI Network to not use Vimeo, instead using Mux. There were no major streaming issues that, like what happened with the 8th, 9th, and 11th specials, resulted in HEI having to use a backup YouTube livestream.
  * The Witches & Wizards segment was produced by [[vicberger]].
  * Thunder Studios Broadcasting helped produced the special, providing a mobile production truck that could be clearly seen when Joey confronted New.
  * [[larue]] only appears in old [[xposed]] footage with a voice over. This is because the actor couldn't show up due to challenges involving health.[(cite:twitter1>[[https://x.com/real_mcm/status/1896766834889896092|"Thank you thank you … Heinetwork , On Cinema Family in spite of health challenges u found away to get me in the Oscar Special ! but Special thanks to the fans & Followers 💯You make this so much fun 🤩 🎥🍿", Tweet from @real_mcm, 3/3/25]])]
==== Goofs ====
  * The start of the special was delayed by a minute as the intro's audio was not properly playing. The countdown was rewound in real-time back to a minute.
    * A hot mic, presumably of director [[eric]], counting down to the start of the special could also be heard.
  * While Toni was interviewing G. Amato, an accidental camera cut to Tim and Gregg was shown with both of them out-of-character and laughing at G.'s non-answers.
  * The reflection of a teleprompter could be seen during a couple of scenes.
