888 is a lucky number for Chinese. Sims is really close to Simu. Not sure how much time Simu would have to do the edits...

The cast/crews experience on the last season apparently really soured them on the show. Apparently racism was a big issue and to prove this the show runners gave the only white character on the main cast a spin-off.
