Line 2:
* [[Dawson Casting]]: Largely averted for the main cast. One notable exception was Julie Condra, who guest-starred as a high school freshman at age 20. This made the story arc where Condra's obviously older, sexually mature character comes on to innocent young Kevin Arnold rather jarring.
* [[Fake American]]: Olivia d'Abo. You know, Karen Arnold. Wait... you did remember that Kevin and Wayne have an older sister, didn't you?
* [[Keep Circulating the Tapes]]: The large amount of hit songs featured in the show—and the corresponding legal ''and'' financial snags involved with licensing the rights to all of that music—make a proper, uncut DVD release of the show nigh impossible. However, the show's complete run can be streamed online via [https://web.archive.org/web/20120208082238/http://www2.netflix.com/Movie/The-Wonder-Years/70172454 Netflix] and [http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dinstant-video&field-keywords=Wonder+Years&x=0&y=0 Amazon] (albeit with some of the musical content, including the theme song, changed from the original network versions).
* [[Mean Character, Nice Actor]]: The actor who played Wayne, Jason Hervey, was said to be a rather nice guy and was hurt that people thought of him as the epitome of abusive older brothers.
* [[Missing Episode]]: The first of the shows two clip shows is not available for viewing on Netflix.
* [[Real Life Relative]]: Danica McKellar's sister Crystal plays Kevin's vengeful ex-girlfriend Becky.
** Also, Fred Savage's own little brother Ben Savage played the "cupid" character on the Valentine's Day episode.
** In the Mexican Spanish dub, adult Kevin and Winnie's voice actors were married.
