Notes on discrepancies

  • The season scoreboards shown at the ends of episodes 4, 7, 10 and 13 display different totals for the contestants than they should do, based on both the points which are observed to be awarded, and the official episode scoreboards displayed at the ends of each episode.
  • Kevin is observed to be awarded 182 points, but the final season scoreboard shows him with 183 points, and the total of his official episode scores is 184 points.
  • Marie-Lyne is observed to be awarded 201 points, but the final season scoreboard shows her with 196 points, and the total of her official episode scores is 197 points.
  • Mona is observed to be awarded 208 points, and this tallies with the total of her official episode scores, but the final season scoreboard shows her with 215 points.
  • Phil is observed to be awarded 179 points, but the final season scoreboard shows him with 182 points, and the total of his official episode scores is 180 points.
  • Tammy is observed to be awarded 186 points, and this tallies with the total of her official episode scores, but the final season scoreboard shows her with 193 points.
  • Fortunately, none of this changes who was named the winner of the season.
