History WesternAnimation / HipHipAndHurra

** One episode is set during horse races. There is a Penguin who's is going around selling [[Film/ADayAtTheRaces "tutsi fruitsi icecream"]], as he loudly announces.

** Magpie, as you can guess, reacts this way every time she comes across shiny objetcs.
* BarefootCartoonAnimal: With few rare exeptions (like the Zebra) none of the animals have shoes. However, most appear to get them during one episode, which is set in the winter during Christmas time.

* HopelessSuitor: Hip-Hip. In fact, Rose likes him (or even has some romantic fellings about him). He just gets overpowered with being shy, so she never talks to him.

** Basically all of the characters, with exeption of Auntie Hen.

* RealityWarper: It's a kind of world where the characters do this kind of stuff all the time, just for the sake of a joke. For example: In one episode, Hip-Hip needs to know what type of hair one ancestor had. In order to discover this, he asks a very old turtle to tell him the story of his ancestor. When the flashback appears and we can't see his ancestor's hair becose hes wearing a hat, [[MindScrew Hip-Hip simply jumps into the flash-back and pulls the hat from his ancestor's head to see his hair]].

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: A very subtle ambiguous allusion : In one episode Hip-Hip imagine his family tree. Then Rose the Giraffe (his [[InterspeciesRomance love interest]]) comes and starts eating the leaves and almost destroys it... Hmmm...

* [[HonoraryUncle Honorary Aunt]]: Auntie Hen is called "Aunt" by every character of the show, but she obviously isn't related to anyone in the show...

** In the same episode Hurra puts on a [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Bat-Hurra]] near the end and says [[{{Film/Batman}} "I'm Bat Hurra"]].

* NervousWreck:
%%** Crane.
** Hurra, whenever the mystery the characters are solving involves something scary (ghosts, for example).

* ADogNamedDog: With exeption of Hip-Hip, Hurrah, Rose, Missy the Ant and Kinga, all animals characters are named after their species.

* FunnyForeigner: Mr. Bear's cousins Panda (from China) and Sloth Bear (from India)

* FoodFight: One episode takes place during party at The Bears' house. Hurra acidentaly throws a large cake at Polar bear, [[HilarityEnsues he grabs another cake in response, and...]]

* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Peacock. He may be narcistic jerk, but he can be both plesant and helpful.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: A very subtle ambiguous allusion : In one episode Hip-Hip imagine shis family tree. Then Rose the Giraffe (his [[InterspeciesRomance love interest]]) comes and starts eating the leaves and almost destroys it... Hmmm...

** One particular episode turns into satire on TV court dramas (and trials in general) when all the characters hold a trial for the Magpie to prove if she's a criminal or not. The episode spoofs everything from the court's protocols to surprise witnesses. Even the News report about the trial looks like a wrestling match poster.

** Hurra is very easly distracted whenever something fun is involved.
** Magpie, as you can guess, reacts this way every time she comes across shiny object.

** Humming-bird is angry whenever somebody calls him "tiny"... Then again, he appears to have Beserk Button about almost everything.

** His girlfriend Kinga is even a bigger one. In one episode she throws a birtday party for her imaginary friend and invites the entire town, in an other one she claims that it's inpossible to steal the sun since she would burn her paws.

* OneForSorrowTwoForJoy : In one episode Hip-Hip and Hurra investigate series of crimes of shiny objects, which leads them to a Magpie. After being captured, the bird is put on a trial (with Hip-Hip as a judge), and at the end the animals learn that Magpie's stealing was motivated by her natural instinct, so she can't be held responsible for her actions.

* OnlySaneMan: Rose the Giraffe is usually this. She does have some {{Cloudcuckoolander}} moments here and there, however...
