* ScienceImitatesArt: Species with long, horn- or nose-like projects have on occasion been named after the puppet himself. These include beetle ''Walckenaeria pinocchio'', with a long single horn; the orchid ''Masdevallia pinocchio'', whose flowers produce long, slender "spikes" from the top petal; the crab ''Oxypleurodon pinocchio'', with a long upturned rostrum; and several others.

* ExecutiveMeddling: SFX guru Creator/CarloRambaldi (the man behind the effects of ''Film/KingKong1976'', ''Film/{{Alien}}'', ''[[Film/ETTheExtraTerrestrial E.T.]]'', ''Film/Dune1984'' and others) was asked to make self-funded tests for a Pinocchio animatronic to be used in the show. He demanded a higher payment than what they planned, thus the studio resolved by sending an engineer to take photos of his blueprints and mechanisms and build their own puppet by copying Rambaldi's without him knowing until the show was finished. The result was a [[EpicFail barely functioning puppet]] which forced Luigi Comencini to resort to the constant puppet/real boy transitions, and a successful lawsuit from Rambaldi.

** Pinocchio's actor Andrea Balestri didn't pursue much of a movie career after the miniseries. After a few other roles he dropped acting and tried several professions before starting a stage career in his home town, which he continues to this day. He still gives interviews and participates in documentaries about his portrayal of Pinocchio though.
** Lampwick's actor Domenico Santoro appeared in four movies as a child (including ''Pinocchio'') before retiring to private life. He never made a public appearance ever since.
