Go To

1!!Furry Confusion?
2* Franklin wants a pet dog. ... so, is that like slavery or...?
3** FurryConfusion...or maybe cats and dogs aren't anthropomorphic like turtles, bears, or geese in the Franklin universe.
4*** ''Franklin's Magic Christmas'' has anthro border collies, but there could still be other non-anthro dogs.
5!!Huh?
6* How Franklin's mother apparently gives birth to his little sister like a mammal would, going into labor and everything.
7** If I had to guess, it was probably to save time on the show if they had her giving birth like a mammal, if the "birth" wasn't more like laying a egg only to have it hatch right after, as eggs can take a while to hatch (usually).
8!!Bear, aren't you going too far?
9* Why exactly does Bear take lying and distrust so seriously? There have been times when he’s threatened to end his friendship with Franklin often over minor slights such as telling little white lies.
10** Maybe he is one of those kids who has been told that lying is always bad. Sometimes I do think Bear is a bad friend because you should not end friendship over such petty things.
11*** Well remember he is only about 5-years-old. Kids that age end friendships over petty stuff all the time.
12** Kind of relating that Franklin is only 5-years old; Why on earth in "Franklin Takes a Trip" do his parents think that their 5-year old son enjoys ''a pioneer village''? It's clearly intendet to be for more grown ups. Not to mention Franklin obviously wanted to go on a funpark.
13!!Bear’s blue vest-thing
14* What’s the deal with Bear suddenly wearing that vest from season 3 onwards?
15** The same can be said about Franklin's red cap. In season 1, he always mostly hasn't been wearing the red cap but has been wearing it season 2 onwards. It was probably their preference.
16
17!!Franklin’s Punishment
18* Why didn't Mr. & Mrs. Turtle punish Franklin for lying? They just went with Franklin's option.
19
20!!Cheating
21* Why did Rabbit cheat in Hide & Go Seek in “Franklin’s Nickname” by making a diversion to let everyone safe? He should’ve known cheating was wrong because of “Franklin’s Test”. Was it to teach Franklin a lesson about not hurting Bear’s feelings? Update, before Test but why didn’t Franklin even bring up Rabbit’s cheating in Test.
22
23!!Franklin’s Shoes
24* Every episode opens with the narrator saying “Franklin could count by 2s and tie his shoes.” but he doesn’t wear any shoes. No one in the Franklinverse does.
