- Colin McFarlane voiced Jasper in The King's Beard.
- Daisy-Head Mayzie features Tim Curry as Finagle, Henry Gibson as the Cat in the Hat, B. J. Ward as Mrs. McGrew, Lewis Arquette as Principal Gregory Grumm and Jonathan Winters as Dr. Eisenbart.
- Creator's Oddball:
- Pond Life is their only production not intended for a child audience.
- Ruff-Ruff, Tweet and Dave is their only CGI production.
