* One of Josh's assistant dancers on “Happiness is Magic” is Joshua Dela Cruz's real-life wife, Amanda Dela Cruz.
* In his [[https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck7L7FGj0kV/?igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Instagram]], Steve Burns makes a comment about his youth and current times while seeing an advertisement for the film:
--> A life time ago I was a struggling actor living on a shelf I had built in the hallway of a tiny apartment across the street from the bus station. I was auditioning and making a weird experimental children's television show. That show was ''WesternAnimation/BluesClues'' and that shelf was less than two blocks away from this insane movie ad. Talk about a big city adventure...
* Fred's appearance in the film, even though Series/BluesRoom is a controversial spin off, is a nice nod to fans who enjoyed that era.
* Many neurodivergent fans loved this film because the three hosts go through extremely relatable experiences for these groups, in a respectable way, without treating these characteristics as bad or as a joke, which is rare for comedy films.

* ''On Our Way''
** The percussionists letting Josh play with them
** Crosses with SugarWiki/FunnyMoments. Josh and Blue, thinking that the NYC Mailbox is alive, say it's her turn to sing, but because she's not sentient nothing happens and Josh just assumes she's shy and says when she's ready maybe they can sing together later. This small moment of kindness is what brings her to life.

** Also, Mr. Salt's dream is to be Josh's hero.
* A slightly confused Josh asks a non-sentient trash can if he knows where the handy-dandy notebook is, and when someone throws a coffee cup out in front of him he's quick to say that it was rude and ask if the cup is ok. And then once again Josh's kindness brings both objects to life.

* Even though Rainbow Puppy doesn't want any of the singers as her stars, she still recognizes that they are amazing, even if they aren't Josh.
** When she becomes depressed, the director is quick to comfort her by telling her that she [[PetTheDog shouldn't give up on her dream]].
** Rainbow Puppy agreeing to take a photo with a fan even though [[ThrowTheDogABone she just rejected her]].
** When the Director points out [[StrawmanHasAPoint that Josh might not be the right person for the presentation because he lacks experience]], Rainbow Puppy defends her friend, saying that even if he is not the most prepared, he still has a lot of talent and motivation, [[BirdsOfAFeather pointing out that he is very similar to her]] and that is why she wants to have him in the play.

* Mr. Salt [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre encouraging Josh to sing in front of him]], even though he won't be performing in Rainbow Puppy's play. Of course it was all a [[BatmanGambit plan by the little salt shaker to let Rainbow Puppy see him]], but that just makes it all the more heartwarming.

-->'''Josh:''' Thanks for always believing in me.
** Joe and Steve join Josh during the song, playing guitar and piano and helping Mr. Salt record the video to broadcast to the city.
