History Recap / HTFSpinFunKnowinYa

* OffModel:
** In the first shot, Cuddles' cheeks are not colored in, leaving them white. This is fixed in the UpdatedRerelease.
** In that same shot, whenever Giggles is shown from behind, her left ear's colors become reversed, making it look purple with pink outlines.
** Giggles lacks her buckteeth whenever her mouth is closed. Since she closes her mouth in the same way as she's in this episode during her "featuring role" pop-up in the first season's intro, this error persists throughout all intro sequences featuring her that season.
** Giggles' her bow color is lighter compared to later episodes.
** Orifices on ears are still visible when a character is seen from behind (except for Lumpy, who has no visible ears).
** Toothy's stray hairs are gone after crashing into a tree. His tail is also unseen during said death.
** Lumpy's antlers are reversed when he walks away, starting the show's trend of AmbidextrousSprite errors in non-video game form.

* EverythingsBetterWithSpinning: What Cuddles, Giggles, and Toothy think when the merry-go-round they're on is spun faster. How wrong they are...

* EstablishingSeriesMoment: For the regular internet series, if not counting "Banjo Frenzy". The episode begins with an innocent-looking moment involving a GangOfCritters, only [[MoodWhiplash to go wrong and end with a bloody mess]]. This is the episode that establishes the series' reputation right off the bat.

!!"Spin Fun Knowin' Ya!" contains the following:

-->''Cuddles has gone on to star in a series of straight-to-video {{Ninja}} movies called [[Film/FistOfFury "Paws of Fury"]]. Toothy is currently wanted in 7 states for impersonating a dentist. He was last seen in Ohio. Giggles has written a tell-all autobiography called "Tears Behind the Giggles". Lumpy went on to sponsor a bill in the Senate banning [[ContinuityNod the parking of commercial planes near playgrounds]]. To this day, 5 lives have been saved.'' [{{Beat}}] ''6 Lives'' -- shown after "Spin Fun Knowin' Ya!" ends but before the credits sequence.

* OhCrap: Giggles' reaction after seeing Toothy being launched away.

The episode begins with a group of small woodland animals (Cuddles the rabbit, Giggles the chipmunk, and Toothy the beaver) playing on a merry-go-round spun by a tall moose (Lumpy). One of the critters asks the moose to spin it faster, and he obliges. Soon enough, the moose begins spinning the merry-go-round faster and faster, making the critters happy until they get launched out from the ride one by one. The first to be launched away is Toothy, who ends up crashing into a tree, breaking his back and planting his teeth into said tree. Giggles goes second after trying to hold on to the ride only for the bar she's holding on to break off, sending her to a tree stump that cuts off her body. The merry-go-round's bar then impales her upper body. Cuddles is the last to go after having his hands torn off from trying to hold on to the high-speed merry-go-round, launching him into an idle airplane's engine, shredding him to bits. The unaware Lumpy soon gets exhausted from spinning the merry-go-round and finally stops. Once the ride stops spinning, he notices Cuddles's hands still hanging onto one of the bars. Realizing what he has done, he simply walks away whistling while Cuddles's hands slide down the merry-go-round's bar.

* DebutQueue: In order, Cuddles, Giggles, Toothy, and Lumpy make their first debut in the regular series. (not counting "Banjo Frenzy")
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Despite looking more distinct compared to "Banjo Frenzy", this episode still contains some oddities compared to later HTF episodes.
** Giggles lacked her triangular (later diamond-shaped) marking on her head. However, despite "Helping Helps" finally adding her marking, her introduction pop-up still leaves her without her marking.
** Toothy had two stray hairs on his head. Similar to Giggles's case, Toothy's stray hairs are retained in his introduction pop-up in later episodes.
** For the CaptionHumor rerelease version, it was referred to as "Special Pop Corn Video" instead of "[=BlurB!=]" that fans have grown accustomed to.
*** Additionally, the CaptionHumor presentation itself looks different compared to the [=BlurB!=]s. Notably, it retains the show's thematic "Countryhouse" font instead of using a more general-use font like in the latter's case.
* EstablishingSeriesMoment: For the regular internet series, if not counting "Banjo Frenzy". The episode begins with an innocent-looking moment involving a GangOfCritters only [[MoodWhiplash to go wrong and end with a bloody mess]].

* NotSoInnocentWhistle: Lumpy does this after noticing Cuddles's hands still hanging onto the merry-go-round's bar.
