* During the school-wide sleepover in 'The Dark Side of the Boob', Matthew spends the episode feeling isolated and unwanted if he doesn't fit in with the girl's 'gay best friend' stereotype. In season 5, however, we learn that Caleb is quite invested in his friendship with Matthew, and has wanted them to be closer for a long time. We never hear what the Shame Wizard had been taunting the other background students with, but is possible that Caleb was having similar doubts about how much he is accepted by his peers. Both boys start the show as more or less gag stereotypes, if they'd been willing to open up to each other earlier they wouldn't have felt so alone.

* Again again in "Rice Purity Test", the reason for Connie's anxiety over motherhood becomes clear- her entire job is about getting teen girls to hate their moms. It makes perfect sense that she doesn't want to become one herself.

** But it's still incredibly popular with kids going through puberty as well. This just goes to show that Big Mouth, like most legendary cartoons, was created to be a show that can resonate with two audience demographics, kids and adults.


Added DiffLines:

* The writers deserve praise for making lovebugs and hateworms the same entity. They could have gone the easy route and made them two different species that fight all the time but making them the same is a brilliant metaphor for how love and hate are both identical feelings that come from the same place.

* Crossing with GeniusBonus, the Rice Purity Test anthropomorphized as a cowgirl with a square dance song is a reference to its origins from Rice University, a private college in Houston, Texas.

* Again in "Rice Purity Test", since Jay considers giving a handjob to a close friend after taking dog dewormers on top of a water tower to be committing incest, joining the mile-high club, and using horse tranquilizers/meth/crack/heroin/pcp, it's likely his score of 3 is because he's being ''incredibly'' liberal with his definitions.

* "Rice Purity Test" implies that Jay committed bestiality. Assuming the beast in question doesn't have to be alive, it's probably referring to that incident with the Thanksgiving turkey.

* At first, I always thought it was a bit of a misaimed message that the show talked about puberty when it was very clearly an adult-only show. But after thinking about it, I realized it's not for kids to learn about puberty; its so parents and adults can understand what children are going through so that they can better help them through those issues. In other words, it's a guidebook for future parents or carers.

* When Matthew comes out to his dad, he looks like he's getting irritated by where the conversation is going, but then it's revealed that he already knew Matthew was gay and never had a problem with it. He was just annoyed that they changed the subject from a topic that he found interesting to something he thought was a mundane non-issue.

* Hormone Monsters often makes suggestions about sex and intimacy that makes no sense, like Maurice telling Matthew to kiss a boy by mashing his teeth against his. However this makes an interesting amount of sense when you consider them to represent the kids subconscious: they make suggestions that make no sense because the kids also aren't really clear about how sex and sex acts work.

* It may seem odd for Andrew to suddenly have a masturbation method in "Four Stories about Hand Stuff" when he hasn't before, but it could have developed as a coping mechanism, since almost every other masturbation or ejaculation he's had in the show has led to something bad happening to him (the dance with Missy, the bathroom with Leah, etc.).

* In the ending of season 4, both Tito and Depression Kitty shrunk down to the size of normal mosquitos and cats respectively after Jessi manages to help Nick out and figure out her own problems, but they did not disappear. Why? It's a metaphor that while you cannot completely remove anxiety and depression, you can manage them in healthy ways.

* Why is the show so deliberately ugly? Two reasons: one, puberty makes you ''feel'' ugly, so it wouldn't make sense for pubescent children to look anything other than gangly and awkward. Two, it dissuades any assumptions that it's [[PaedoHunt an excuse to draw naked pubescent children]], because who would find ''these'' kids attractive?
* The Shame Wizard's shame inducement has NO effect on Coach Steve, because he is so childlike and unabashed, meaning he simply doesn't have ''any'' shame.
