Oh, and as to your bit about inaccurate closed captions, I can agree with you on that. In my area, the closed captions that they did for "Upgrade", for example, when they got to Hudson's considering the upgraded Pack even more fearsome than anything that the Archmage's sorcery ever produced, spelt it "Archmajor". And in "Future Tense", the closed captions read "Eerie Pyramid" instead of "Eyrie Pyramid" (although, in light of what the place was like in "Future Tense", it was a rather appropriate mistake).

There are other errors too. Judge Roebling, in "Sanctuary", I think was WAY mispelled in the close captions.

I've seen other mistakes in fandom that I can't explain, and so I'm betting they came from the close captions. More than once, I've seen the Shaman from "WALKABOUT" given a name. (I can't remember what the name was.) But I know WE never gave him a name. So I'm betting the close captions mistranscribed something that Dingo said. There's also a wrong name for Natsilane's tribe floating around. And those are just a couple off the top of my head. (I just wish those people had ASKED us for the scripts. I would have been happy to help.)
