* AnachronismStew or ArtisticLicenseHistory: In 'Let the Nightingale Sing' Florence is shown as having a teddy bear as a little girl, she doesn't batter an eyelid at Doc's ethnicity and doesn't remark about the idea of a female doctor. (Florence Nightingale was born in 1820, teddy bears were invented in 1902.)

* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: Critics have praised the program for its central character being a young African-American girl who, though feminine, wants to grow up to be a doctor--just like her mother. Actual female doctors of color, too, have embraced the character, with 131 offering pictures of themselves to create a "We Are Doc [=McStuffins=]" collage to celebrate Doc as a positive role model for young girls. What makes it even better is that the show ''doesn't'' drop this Aesop on a regular basis--Doc's ability to become a doctor is never questioned, suggesting that it's entirely possible for children of any race to achieve their dreams.
** Similarly, the show inverts the "traditional" family view: Doc's mother works a high-paying and demanding job, and her father is a stay-at-home dad who does activities traditionally associated with femininity, such as cooking and gardening. But they're clearly a happy, well-balanced couple that's doing a great job raising their kids, which quietly attacks old-fashioned ideas of men working and [[StayInTheKitchen women being homemakers]].
