Added DiffLines:

* GainaxEnding: "Richie of the Round Table", an episode involving Richie traveling back in time to visit his ancestor King Richly and his royal family, ends [[EndOfEpisodeSilliness in a very silly way]]: After the adventure is over, Richie returns to the present and admits to Dollar that he misses the people they met already while writing about them in his history book. When he gets to a part of the book about Pound, [[DelightfulDragon the royal family's dragon]], an illustration of Pound spontaneously comes to life and breathes [[ItMakesSenseInContext popcorn]] all over Dollar. Dollar has a bemused reaction while Pound doubles over laughing, and the episode ends there without any explanation for what happened (beyond RuleOfFunny, of course).


Added DiffLines:

* TakenForGranite: One episode involves Keenbean inventing a golden glove that can turn things into gold like the Midas Touch. Reggie, seeing the opportunity to get even richer, steals the glove and starts turning random objects into gold. Unfortunately for Reggie, [[ClingyMacGuffin he can't get the glove back off]] and starts accidentally turning people into gold statues as well, prompting Richie and Keenbean to invent a new glove that can reverse the process in a hurry.


Added DiffLines:

* VocalEvolution: Richie's voice actor's voice breaks over the course of the show's run, resulting in Richie's voice sounding very deep for a twelve-year-old boy by the end of the show's run.
