In the series' finale, George is promoted to Detective Two, and Matt complains that George has only been on Earth for 6 years and doesn't deserve the promotion yet. But now throughout this film, they comment that they've been here for 5 years.
The US video release contains several very brief scenes not shown on its first release on Fox Television in the U.S. For example, there's a brief addition to the scene where Ahpossno boards his craft. After you see the trolly in LA go by following Ahpossno's departure from the mother ship, you see the delivery man buying the flowers, and showing hate for Newcomers. A scene shows Penny welcoming the Franciscos home after their hospitalizaion.
