- In Italy the episode "Welcome" didn't air, so the episode numbering starts with "Best Friends". Disney Channel France, instead, published it on its YouTube Channel and considered it as the first episode.
- Episodes 46-49 are considered special episodes and were fully posted on Disney Channel Italy's Community.
