History Trivia / PBAndJOtter

* UnspecifiedRoleCredit: While the otter triplets have their voice actors properly credited, the supporting voices only list their actors' names.

* ChildrenVoicingChildren: 5 of the characters (Peanut, Butter, Jelly, Pinch, and Scootch) are voiced by actual kids. Averted with the rest of the children characters, however, who are voiced by grown men!

* NamesTheSame: One of the kids shares the same name as Flik, the main character of ''WesternAnimation/ABugsLife''. Perhaps intentional, as the show was released the same year as that movie.

* ChildrenVoicingChildren: 5 of the characters (Peanut, Butter, Jelly, Pinch, and Scootch) are voiced by actual kids.

* TalkingToHimself: Both Pinch and her brother Scootch are voiced by Cody Pennes.
** Eddie Korbich does voices for ''four'' on the series: Siblings Ootsie and Bootsie Snooty, their dad Edouard Snooty and Flick Duck.
** Corinne Orr voices Georgina Snooty, Wanda Raccoon, and Shirley Duck.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The series was never released officially on home video. Once the series was removed from Playhouse Disney, this trope was pretty much the only option for those who had enjoyed the series but missed episodes, or who later discovered the series. Then Disney Junior, the network that replaced Playhouse Disney, began airing daily repeats (mornings on weekdays, 11:30 P.M. on weekends) of the program on September 4, 2012. However, those getting non-U.S. feeds of the channel [[NoExportForYou may not have been as lucky]]. Many episodes ''were'' available to watch on Website/YouTube for a time until Disney stepped in to remove almost all of them. It wasn't until October 19, 2022 that the complete series [[https://comicbook.com/tv-shows/news/disney-plus-streaming-pbj-otter-disney-channel/ came]] to Creator/DisneyPlus.

* CrossdressingVoices: Scootch is voiced by a girl, Cody Pennes.

%%* SocietyMarchesOn: Once the library closes in Lake Hoohaw, you're done if you need to return a book on the date it's due and can't make it there. The best you can do is to go there the next day and pay a late fee (or worse, work to pay off the fee). In real life, libraries now recognize that some people cannot make it during their hours of operation and have book drops for people who can only make it to the library after it closes. Many libraries no longer charge late fees, instead offering alternatives (such as membership programs, which let patrons check out whatever they want for as long as they want).

* ColbertBump: ''WesternAnimation/StrawberryShortcake'' fans know of this show's existence through the work of a berry creative troll who claimed that "Nothing Lasts Forever", a song from this series, was a song used in a unaired episode of the 2003 ''Strawberry Shortcake'' series.

* OutOfOrder:
** Save original broadcasts, holiday or seasonal-themed episodes were aired out of order. This practice continued on Disney Junior.gf
** In early November 2013, Disney Junior aired episodes of ''[[WesternAnimation/JakeAndTheNeverlandPirates Jake and the Neverland Pirates]]'' in the ''Otter'' timeslot with no explanation and little advance notice. When airings of ''Otter'' resumed, rather than airing the skipped episodes, they picked up exactly in the point of the continuation as if the previous airings hadn't been pre-empted. Fortunately, no major specials such as "Hope Castle" were skipped.
