Trivia
- Cubert was supposed to appear in A Big Piece of Garbage, but due to time constraints, he was removed entirely.
- Cubert's original purpose on the show was to sit on the sidelines in all episodes and point out flaws in logic throughout the series. The writers determined this would get obnoxious very quickly and reimagined his role.
- Cubert may be missing a toe (4ACV07).
