** Rebecca Rabbit slightly resembles a rabbit.

* BilingualAnimal: The animals can both talk and make their sounds. Daddy Pig's loud snort is a RunningGag.

-->[[NarratingTheObvious Peppa loves]] Wiki/TVTropes. ''[[JustForFun/TVTropesWillRuinYourLife Everybody]]'' loves TV Tropes!

* FurryReminder: This show likes this trope '''a lot'''. To start off, the animals make their species' noises [[VerbalTic frequently]], Peppa Pig and her family enjoy jumping in muddy puddles, and the Rabbit family lives in a burrow and loves carrots.

* Not Allowed To Grow Up: Slightly averted (or subverted?) with the ocassional birthday episode.

A video game based on the show, ''VideoGame/MyFriendPeppaPig'', was released on October 22, 2021 for the UsefulNotes/PlayStation4, UsefulNotes/XboxOne, UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch and [=PC=], with the former two versions being compatible with the UsefulNotes/PlayStation5 and UsefulNotes/XboxSeriesXAndS. A next-gen version for both consoles was released on January 21, 2022. The game proved popular enough that in March 2022, Outright Games released downloadable content for it, "Pirate Adventures."

* AcquiredErrorAtThePrinter: "Mummy Pig's Book" is about Peppa and George getting a record-breaking highscore on "Happy Ms. Chicken" via keyboard spamming, which ends up overwriting Mummy's storybook about a onion who tries to be funny to others. This isn't discovered by Mummy until the book gets released, which starts with the story then jump-cuts (after the first two pages) to Peppa and George's scoreboard. Everyone finds it funny, but Peppa and George know the truth.
* AdultFear: In "London." [[spoiler:The playgroup's double-decker bus only barely manages its jump over Tower Bridge, and even then, the bus is left teetering on the edge of its landing. The group has to move to the front of the bus in order to tip it safely onto the road.]]

* CallBack: "Winter Games": The characters are on a ski trip and Mummy Pig is cautious not to inadvertently ski down a mountain and into her house... She ends up doing that again, going through and out of the other end of the house and into the playgroup.
