R.L. Stine didn't create the show, he just came on early in development as head writer.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The show has had only three VHS releases in its lifetime and has never been released on DVD, nor on [=iTunes=], Creator/{{Hulu}}, Creator/{{Netflix}}, or Creator/PrimeVideo, likely because of the rights issues concerning the animated shorts that would play in each episode. Because of this, full episodes of the show are hard to come across outside of Website/YouTube uploads. Not even Wiki/TheOtherWiki lists them all. As for the merchandise, all of it is long out of print and hard to find. Finally averted when 26 episodes of the show were put on Creator/ParamountPlus in April 2021.

** The puppeteers of each of the six main characters were all ''Series/SesameStreet'' veterans. Notably, Brian Muehl and Pam Arciero, the puppeteers behind Bogge and Quagmire respectively, had ''both'' previously performed Oscar the Grouch's girlfriend, Grundgetta, with Arciero succeeding Muehl in the role after his departure from the show. Muehl was also one of the earlier performers of Elmo in the years before Kevin Clash took over the role. Noel [=MacNeal=] (Magellan) would go on to perform as the title character on ''Series/BearInTheBigBlueHouse'' alongside Jim Kroupa (Batly), having previously worked on this show and ''Series/TheGreatSpaceCoaster''. Eureeka herself, Cheryl Blaylock, had previously been a background puppeteer for ''Series/SesameStreet'' and would go on to play characters on ''Series/BetweenTheLions'', ''Series/{{Oobi}}'', and ''Series/BluesRoom''.

Playing Against Type is about an actor playing a type of role they are not usually accustomed to. RL Stine doing a children's show falls more under Creators Oddball.


* CreatorsOddball: When you think of [[Creator/RLStine one of the most celebrated authors of young adult horror]], this would probably be the last thing you would expect. (Although he actually ''started'' his career as a humor writer, he already had at least a few horror books under his belt by this point.)
