Trivia
The one white member of the Mau Maus, named 1/16th Blak in the movie, was played by M.C. Serch, a member of the 80s/90s rap act 3rd Bass. The Mau Maus sing a portion of 3rd Bass's song "The Gas Face" while hanging out in the studio: "Black cat is bad luck, bad guys wear black / Musta been a white guy who started all that."

Quotes
Honeycutt: Uh... well, you know. I do all sorts of things, man. Whatever you need me to do. You know, like, I even do Shakespeare and shit.

Dunwitty: You know, I grew up around black people my whole life. I mean, if the truth be told, I probably know niggas better than you. And don't go getting offended by my use of the quote-unquote N-word. I have a black wife and two biracial kids, so I feel I have a right. I don't give a God damn what that prick Spike Lee says. Tarantino was right. Nigger is just a word. If Ol' Dirty Bastard can use it every other word, why can't I?

Pierre Delacroix: The mission was accomplished. All of these people left the room thinking they would have real input. I was writing this pilot alone. Myself. Me. Moi.
