* When Karen and Frosty are locked in the greenhouse, Frosty melts and we cut away to have a look at Santa Claus during that time. But it takes a while to realize how truly traumatizing it would be for Karen to watch a freaking ''sentient'' snowman melt before her very eyes.

[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWbqYzqrHbs Someone made an animation purporting to be a deleted scene showing Frosty melting in the most horrific way possible, and most commenters have accepted it as canon.]]

* Many remember the scene where Professor Hinkle is told by Santa that he has to write an apology "a hundred zillion times" to receive any goods, but the dialogue originally began as a threat that if he touches the hat he'll never recieve another Christmas present again. Hinkle then names examples of things he would want. If there was continuity to the discussion, after he said that he had to make a living too, Santa would have said something like "Well you'd better not touch that hat, then".

* The ticket booth operator lists a bunch of locations that would be counterintuitive to travel to (Saskatchewan is in central Canada, Hudson Bay eastern Canada, Nome is in FAR western Alaska, a whole trip across the continent westward, the Klondike is in the Yukon, a southwest backtrack) until you realize he was humoring the kids and trying to say that there's no way to travel by train to the north pole, which is a bunch of ice floating in the Arctic ocean. There isn't even a land bridge between Canada's Ellesmere Island and Greenland. Had the kids had the $3000 for the ticket, he would have had to admit he was making stuff up or make up a story about train service not being in for one of the lengths of the journey.

* The narrator mentions that Santa can speak rabbit. Keep in mind that WesternAnimation/FrostyTheSnowman takes place in the same universe as other Creator/{{Rankin Bass|Productions}} specials like SantaClausIsComingToTown and RudolphTheRedNosedReindeer. In the former, Santa had forest animal mentors growing up. That's how he knows how to speak rabbit.

** The order to write the apology could have been a test to see how repentant Professor Hinkle was, or how seriously he took Santa's words. Even if he didn't write that many, if Santa looked in and saw him doing the job, it would mean Hinkle took what he said to heart.
