Anecdotes
The "Psycho Shower Scene" illusion has been already performed in The Magic of ABC (1977) and again in The Magic of David Copperfield VII: Familiares (1985).

Gaffes
After the presentation by Orson Welles, the TV special begins with a shot that shows several objects left on a carpet. Among these, there are a book and several playing cards, on some of which the faces of the stars of the TV special are drawn, and the shot shows them one by one while a voiceover says their names. However, in every subsequent shot in which the carpet is visible, not only it is different from the original but also the objects left on it are different. The initial shot does not interfere in any way with the illusion performed in front of the live audience, but it could not have been filmed during the live show itself: it could have been added only during the post-production of the TV special.
