- The seventh episode of "Sexy Voice and Robo" was not aired because the setting of the episode's story was similar to a kidnapping that happened around that time. The kidnapping caused the death of a police officer, and thus the episode was cancelled as not to be an unpleasant reminder of the event. The episode was replaced by a re-run of episode two, causing a dramatic decrease in the series' viewership. In actuality, only ten episodes were aired.
