* BehindTheBlack: Despite what Angry Kid can be capable of on-screen, he is shown to appear and disappear in different places off-screen with little explained as to how he did it.\\
In "Headlights" for example, he is able to vanish outside of his dad's car while driving through headlights, before getting stuck on a truck's bumper outside and appearing back in the car again. Later on in "Speed", he is able to interrupt a police radio frequency by appearing inside the police car ''itself'' just after fleeing from the car's point of view on his bike with Li'l Sis in tow, and before the bike comes back in view with AK and Li'l Sis having swapped places.

In a nutshell, ''Angry Kid'' is a British StopMotion series of shorts created by Creator/AardmanAnimations, involving a redheaded BrattyHalfPint who usually harasses his father, sister and, well, practically every character in the show. These shorts originally aired on the Creator/Channel4 block ''4Later'' before being put on the now defunct video website Atom.com. Unlike most Aardman productions, these series of shorts use an animation technique known as pixilation, in which the live actor (who portrayed the body of Angry Kid) had to wear masks and use small movements; this was dropped in Series 3 however as the masks were replaced with CGI.
