Shana gets a chance at a new career as a fashion designer. She hesitates since it means she won't have time for the upcoming tour. But Jem and the rest of the Holograms realize that it's Shana's big chance to make it as a top designer, and suggests to have a talent search for a new drummer.

Other notes:
Shana plays both guitar and drums, but until this episodes she hadn't played guitar in ages according to herself. Kimber plays drums aswell, but Aja or Jerrica don't.

The Starlight Girls help Jem and the Holograms with promotion.

The Misfits went looking at clubs for a fourth member only to top Jem and the Holograms and their talent search. Stormer liked the idea of a fourth Misfit, because it means a new instrument, a fuller sound, more complex music, Roxy didn't.

Jetta was part of the band Tinkerbillies before she joined the Misfits. "Tinkerbilly" is derogatory slang for a pseudo-rock'n'roller someone pretending to be something he's not.

The first song Jetta played with the Misfits was before she was actually a member, "I Like Your Style".

When the Misfits first meet Jetta, she doesn't have a work permit which means she can't legally work in the USA. But Harvey Gabor's lawyers took care of that.

Craig came back to the USA from Europe just in time for the Talent Search, to visit his sister Stormer.

In the music video "Believe in Yourself" by Jem and the Holograms, we get to see Raya playing drums as a little child, she had the same haircolor even then.

When Raya discovers Jem's real identity she actually recognizes who Jerrica is, which probably means Jerrica is kinda famous too.

The song "I've Got My Eye On You" by Jem and the Holograms is re-used. Previously appeared in the episode "Kimber's Rebellion".

As a response to the talent search held by Jem and the Holograms, the Misfits have found themselves a new member. On top of that, Eric tries to bribe one of the finalists in the Jem and the Holograms talent search, and the other finalist is related to one of the Misfits. Now both of them have reasons to help Eric and the Misfits find out Jem's real identity.

Craig doesn't care about money.

Aja hoped very much that Craig would win the Talent Search.

The song "Show Me The Way" by Jem and the Holograms is re-used. Previously appeared in the episode "Starbright Part 2: Colliding Stars".

Raya is about to be in the middle of her first interview as the new member of the Holograms. But Raya's worries are nothing compared to Kimber's, when the other members of the Holograms start receiving hurtful notes about themselves torn out of Kimber's lost diary.

"I Love A Scandal" The Misfits
"Dear Diary" Jem and the Holograms

Other notes:
Venice Beach is in Los Angeles, which is another thing that shows that Jem and the Holograms live in LA.

Kimber keeps a diary. Here she sometimes writes down thoughts that turn into songs.

Jetta suggests that Roxy reads what Kimber says about her in Kimber's diary, but Roxy says she wouldn't waste her time. In a later episode "Roxy Rumbles" we find out the reason for this, Roxy can't read. On the other hand, later in this episode she has been able to pick out certain pages of Kimber's diary with "dirt".

According to Kimber's diary, Roxy isn't dumb, but ignorant. Pizzazz is a rich spoiled brat. Shana can be ridiculously insecure about her talent. Kimber thinks Aja is cold and sometimes wonders if she has any feelings at all. Sometimes Kimber wishes Jem was her sister instead of Jerrica.

Sean thinks Kimber is a child in spirit but her work is quite mature. Sean has nothing but the highest regards for Kimber, he respects her as a person and an artist. He doesn't think Pizzazz is a real woman and wouldn't sing a song that she wrote.

There's an issue of the magazine Cool Trash that says "Jemstar chilled! Exclusive! Kimber loves Sean! 'I could care less' he says!".

We get to hear Sean's band play a little music, but no singing.

Kimber gets her own new identity when she asks Synergy to change her into someone hard and mean, someone who can never be hurt.

Synergy reveals that Emmett Benton told her many things about Kimber, he hoped she'd be strong, she was a born charmer, from the beginning she enchanted everyone even butterflies, she was sensitive and suffered when she saw pain, but the knocks and scrapes of childhood did not stop her, she was creative, she was drawn to music and writing, she was often frustrated but kept at it. When she was eleven she had her first big test, she had written a song for the school talent show, but some unruly boys made fun of her as she began her sensitive ballad, she had been proud of her song, but now she was humiliated, backstage her father gave her a peptalk, she went back out there and the audience loved her, at that moment her father knew she could survive in the music business, he was very proud. What he said according to Kimber was "be true to yourself, believe in your song, and give the whole audience a chance".

Kimber can write a song in only one day, as also seen in "Father's Day".

The song "She Makes An Impression" by Jem and the Holograms is re-used. Previously appeared in the episode "The Music Awards Part 1".

At a restaurant with Rio, Jem starts acting like a jerk. The Holograms find Jem throwing their albums out of a record store because they are selling them at a discount.

Jerrica sings a song by herself, "Imagine Me", not as Jem and not with the other Holograms.

There is a magazine called "Gala", which has the headline "Jem announces a gala benefit concert".

We get to hear a new lead singing voice, which is the same for both Kimber and Stormer though.

For the first time ever, Stormer makes songs that are meaningful and sensitive.

Stormer has never in her life experienced sincere friendship before she became friends with Kimber. Kimber and Stormer promise each other to be friends forever.

Eric owns Camp Dance Music.

Kimber owns half of Starlight Music.

Kimber knows nothing about business.

The Misfits think Rio knows Jem's real identity, but that the Holograms don't.

Once again we get to hear Samantha Newark's singing.

Jerrica is the Holograms' manager.

It's funny that the Misfits didn't use Master of disguise Clash as one of the actors. She wasn't even in the episode.

In the episode "One Jem Too Many", it's the other way around, only Jem is inpersonated by another.

All the songs in this episode was used in another episode also, although the song "Nightmare" first appeared in this episode. The song "Who Is She Anyway" by the Misfits is re-used.

Other notes:
One of the few holiday episodes.

There's an attic in Starlight Mansion.

Emmett Benton seems to have been a good baseball player, in a box marked "dad" on the attic, there's a baseballtrophy.

Did they really have any material left, like photos from Starlight House? In the music video of "Something Is Missing", Kimber and Emmett are shown at a house with a pool in the backyard. The animators might have taken for granted that Kimber grew up in Starlight Mansion.

According to old clips, Emmett played a lot with kites with Jerrica and Kimber.

Kimber took her father's death very hard. He was very dear to her, as can be seen also in the episode "Scandal".

Kimber started playing guitar when she was a little girl.

In the music video "Something Is Missing", The Holograms are performing without Raya, Jem is the only one with a mike, and Kimber plays guitar.

Mulberry is the name of the town where Clash and Video grew up, and where their parents still live. Except, no word about Clash's mother. That's because nothing was ever established about Clash's mother, according to Christy Marx it was because Clash was a pretty minor character.

Clash had told her father that she was part of the Misfits.

Clash's father calls her Clash and not by her real name. He lives in a big house. He adores her. She is his only daughter.

Video's mother calls her Vivian. Video's parents live almost next to Clash's father, only one house inbetween.

Looking at the old tapes in Video's parent's house, they say Video was two years old when Clash came home from the hospital, but according to the Jem bible they were born at the exact same time.

Video got her first camera from her parents on her 10th birthday. She had the same hairstyle even then. That was the day Clash got her first musical instrument, the cymbals (bigger ones than she's got in Starbright).

Video sees her father as an inspiration for her career, as he always made home movies.

Video's father has taken alot of abuse from his brother Buzz.

For once, the Misfits appear first in a place, before Jem and the Holograms, and without knowing they were going to arrive, and for a reason of their own.

Kimber used to love to be at Christy's stables when Emmett was alive. Kimber's favorite horse was called Lucky, it's white with a horse shoe symbol on it's forehead.

Pizzazz's father reveals to Jerrica and the Holograms that he has raised Pizzazz on his own and spoiled her, and that she has been uncontrollable since her mother walked out on them. It was years ago and ever since that Pizzazz has seemed to resent the world.

Old clips show that Pizzazz had the same lime colored hair even has a child.

The song "Something Is Missing In My Life" by Jem and the Holograms is re-used. Previously appeared in the episode "Adventure In China".

Jem and the Holograms want to try a new sound, and are adviced to travel to Tibet to search for a place called Shangri-La, which is said to be the keepers of all the music, art and poetry the world has ever known. The Misfits know Jem and the Holograms wouldn't be going somewhere like that without a good reason, and that's reason enough for the Misfits to find out what they're up to.

The Taps Tucker Band was one of the great Jazz quartets in the 40's. Lin-Z first heard the Taps Tucker band on a record of her grandfather's when she was only 5 years old but she still remember how "Night Train" blew her away.

For having such talent for music, Kimber doesn't seem to be very aware of old bands like the Taps Tucker band from the 40's. According to Aja, if it didn't happen last week, Kimber is not interested. But Kimber does think the music of Taps Tucker band is great when she hears it.

Taps Tucker still has his old trumpet from the time he played in the Taps Tucker band, because as he says, he can't play any other, it gave the band that special sound.
