Subdigitals=Executive Producers?

[Tsunamix]

So a little while ago, I had been thinking about MoonScoop's executives until something occurred to me. I went and looked at a picture of the Subdigitals and looked back at pictures of the executive producers and it dawned on me: The Subdigitals are named/modeled after MoonScoop's executives.

I mean take a look at these pics and tell me you don't see a resemblance:

Subdigitals (Ben, Nico, Chris from left to right):



Christophe and Benoit di Sabatino:



Nicolas Atlan:


Heck, even the names are similar, and by similar I mean just shortened.

Christophe di Sabatino

Benoit di Sabatino (In fact, the English dub of Crash Course calls him Benoit)

Nicolas Atlan

What's even stranger about this is that somehow, I'm the only one who has noticed this. Even old veterans like TB3 were surprised by this fact when I pointed it out to them.

So I guess what I'm saying is this: Am I honestly the only one who has seen this connection and bothered to comment on it?

Hey that's pretty neat. Didn't catch that myself.

On another note, can't tell if formatting issues problem on your end or mine :/

EDIT: Nvm, problem not with new site look.

I never noticed it, but that’s really cool! I wonder if they were also the voices for the characters (at least in the French version)…?

Impressive. You may be the first CL fan on the planet to notice this, congratulations.

This is actually way cooler than my first blush on it and makes me wonder if there isn't any other Easter Egg stuff in the show.

Yeah I would have never noticed that and you're right, I've never heard anyone else mention that before either. That's pretty neat!

Sounds like somebody was trying to suck up to their boss.

I wonder if it worked?

Or the other explanation of it just being easier to model them after people you already know instead of trying to make them up entirely.

Just like I just came up with the name Tooks Seperable because I saw those names right now.
