Derek Iversen error in Shuffleboarding
  • In the closing credits for "Friend or Foe," "Rise and Shine," "Waiting," and "Fungus Among Us," his name was misspelled as Derek Iverson with an "o" instead of an "e."
  • In the opening credits of "Porous Pockets" and "Shuffleboarding," Derek Iversen was spelled as Derek iversen with a lowercase i.
  • This could be because of the font used, as the official SpongeBob font has a slightly larger lowercase 'i' in place of a capitalized one.
