* The existence of the Karaoke Cafe; it's shown to be a genuine neutral zone, a place that all the toys, monsters and other assorted creepy-crawlies can just come to in order to hang out and enjoy themselves no matter how they may or may not get on outside. It helps emphasize that, as weird as they and however much they may quarrel, the assorted house-dwellers are a community, and the fact he opened up his own territory under the bed for this purpose really says a lot about Mr. Bumpy's hidden heart of gold. And the Karaoke Cafe shows up in several episodes, so it's actually canon to the show's internal universe, it's not just an excuse for the musical numbers that play in most episodes.
