* BreakingTheForuthWall:

* [[BrattyHalfPint Bratty Half Pints]]: The Blues.

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: At the end of "Full Metal Chuck", [[spoiler:Chuck launches himself out of a slingshot while tied to an anchor. He crashes into the side of a cliff, then is left dangling under it]]. The Blues lampshade it by laughing at him. If you listen closely, you will hear one of them shout ,"Bye!" to him after he launches himself.
** Also, [[spoiler:the minion pigs]] at the end of "Hypno Pigs" (See AttentionDeficitOohShiny above and PinballGag below).

The series premiered on March 17, 2013 and ended on May 13, 2016, with a total of 3 seasons and 104 episodes. It could be viewed in some of Rovio's apps as well as on [=ToonsTV=]. After [=ToonsTV=] was shut down in 2017, Rovio started uploading episodes from this series as well as ''Stella'' onto their [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYC2wjLop-S6Ld4raeoUVNA [=YouTube=] channel]]. Since 2016, Creator/{{Netflix}} starts to compile this series into 14-minute chapters, that have 3 episodes of ''Toons'', one of ''Stella'' and 2 of ''Piggy Tales''.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: The ''whole premise'' of "The Miracle of Life" episode, where the pigs kidnap Red and Chuck (who are both male) to force them to make an egg for them by kissing the cabbage together. What doesn't help is the romantic music, Chuck [[HoYay blushing]] as his reaction to all this, and Red's grunts as he's trying to get a egg-shaped-rock to trick the pigs, with the pigs themselves blushing when they hear it.

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Chuck really loves his friends and protecting the eggs, but that doesn't mean that he isn't arrogant from time to time.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: Miracle of Life. The pigs have a film which shows two birds making an egg by kissing a cabbage, so they birdnapp Red and Chuck (who are both male) to make one for them. What doesn't help is the romantic music, Chuck [[HoYay blushing]], and Red's grunts as he's trying to get a egg-shaped-rock to trick the pigs, with the pigs themselves blushing when they hear it.

* WhyWontYouDie: Why Won't You Move!?: In "Gardening with Terence", Matilda tries really hard to move Terence so his shadow doesn't keep the sunlight from her garden. Eventually, [[spoiler:she gives up and moves the garden on top of him, which [[GentleGiant he doen't seem to mind]].]]

* DestructiveSaviour: In "Mind the Pony", Chuck and Bomb chase the pigs, who have stolen the eggs yet again, throughout Pig City, and cause a ''lot'' of damage. By the end of the episode, [[spoiler:they along with Corporal Pig [[RealityEnsues are arrested, and find themselves having to fix many of the pigs' belongings]]]]. [[StatusQuoIsGod Of course]], it doesn't stick, and things are back to normal by the next episode.

** Taken UpToEleven in "Happy Hippy". Apparently, just the ''mere sight of a pig'' is enough to send Red into a foaming-at-the-mouth rage. And then there's the ending where Matilda sees [[TrashTheSet the destroyed landscape]]...

* TooDumbToLive: The minion pigs in particular. While they were stupid in the games, here they are practically ''[[UpToEleven brainless]]''. Fooling them is easier then launching a bird, they still never quit trying to steal the eggs (they will only notice them if they are on a nest) & they can only recognize their king when ''his crown is on his head''. Although [[GeniusDitz there's a few moments where they're actually being competent]].

* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Taken UpToEleven in "Egg's Day Out" when a runaway egg passes by many minion pigs; ''all of them'' fail to notice it even though it is '''right in front of them'''.

** There are a handful of [[OnlySaneMan Only Sane Pigs]] here and there, but more often than not they become [[TheChewToy The Chew Toys]] for the idiotic antics of the minion pigs.

* ArtShift: The first few episodes of Season 1 were done in [[ThreeDEffectsTwoDCartoon CG animation using Adobe After Effects, sometimes shifting into hand-drawn animation]]. Starting with "Gardening with Terence", the show switched to UsefulNotes/ToonBoom. Four episodes ("El Porkador!", "The Butterfly Effect", "Bird Flu", and "Piggies From the Deep") were done in UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash, but the rest of the series is done in [=ToonBoom=].

* ArtShift: The first few episodes of Season 1 were done in computer animation using Adobe After Effects, sometimes shifting into hand-drawn animation. Starting with "Gardening with Terence", the show switched to UsefulNotes/ToonBoom. Four episodes ("El Porkador!", "The Butterfly Effect", "Bird Flu", and "Piggies From the Deep") were done in UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash, but the rest of the series is done in [=ToonBoom=].

** Some of the other characters also received minor redesigns following the switch to hand-drawn animation. For instance, Matilda had thin eyebrows and four eyelashes on each eye in the ConspicuousCG episodes, while in later episodes, she has thicker eyebrows and three eyelashes per eye.

* ArtShift: The first few episodes of Season 1 were done in very ConspicuousCG using Adobe After Effects, sometimes shifting into traditional animation. Starting with "Gardening with Terence", the show switched to UsefulNotes/ToonBoom. Four episodes ("El Porkador!", "The Butterfly Effect", "Bird Flu", and "Piggies From the Deep") were done in UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash, but the rest of the series is done in [=ToonBoom=].

** Taken UpToEleven in "Happy Hippy". Apparently, just the ''mere sight of a pig'' is enough to send Red into a rage. And then there's the ending where Matilda sees [[TrashTheSet the destroyed landscape]]...

* ConspicuousCG: The show was mostly animated this way in the first 12 episodes and "Fired Up!", both from season 1 (this was the main animation style for ''Angry Birds'' animations outside of ''Toons'' around the time). It still shows up occasionally, mostly on backgrounds.

* PintsizedPowerhouse: Bubbles is the smallest bird, but he wiped out a horde of zombie pigs by himself in his premiere episode.

* EvilLivingFlames: In "Fired Up!", Chuck attempts to heat up the eggs from a distance [[LethallyStupid with the magnifying glass]]. It went as well as you'd expect. Soon, the ray produced by magnifying glass came to life and grew limbs, as it actively tries to hunt down the Flock to burn them down.

* ReusedCharacterDesign: The police pig that arrests King Pig (long story) in the end of "The Butler Did It!" is basically Corporal Pig with a different hat. Nonetheless, the cabbage vendor pig in "Porcula" is also him, but his model appears to have been reused from "Not Without My Helmet", in which Corporal Pig lost his helmet to the birds and had to cover his head with a white sheet.

* TooDumbToLive: The minion pigs in particular. While they were stupid in the games, the animation practically had them ''[[UpToEleven brainless]]''. Fooling them is easier then launching a bird, they still never quit trying to steal the eggs (they will only notice them if they are on a nest) & they can only recognize their king when ''his crown is on his head'', although [[GeniusDitz there's a few moments where they actually being competent]].

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: In "The Miracle of Life", the pigs force Red and Chuck, two ''male'' birds, to mate in order to produce eggs. Only female birds can produce eggs, although given that the pigs aren't so bright to begin with, this was likely intentional.
* ArtShift: The first few episodes of Season 1 were done in very ConspicuousCG using Adobe After Effects, sometimes shifting into traditional animation. Starting with "Gardening with Terence", the show fully switched to traditional animation. Four episodes ("El Porkador!", "The Butterfly Effect", "Bird Flu", and "Piggies From the Deep") were done in UsefulNotes/AdobeFlash, but the rest of the series is traditionally animated.
