Go To

  • Celebrity Voice Actor: Rob Schneider (who's best known for starring in Adam Sandler movies) plays the father of the chinchillas, Chum Chum, while opera singer Laura Osnes plays the mother, Chinny.
  • Children Voicing Children: Chip, Chilla and Chubbly are voiced by child actors respectively.
  • Colbert Bump: Chip Chilla received a surge of (negative) popularity when Saberspark tweeted his dislike for the series.
  • Descended Creator: Chubbly's voice actor, Deacon Branscum, is the son of creator Eric Branscum.
  • The Other Darrin: In the Thanksgiving holiday special, James Arnold Taylor replaced Rob Schneider as Chum Chum.
  • Troubled Production: If one of the top comments on B & B Productions' video on the show is to believed, the working conditions were really bad for the animators.
    "Not proud to say this, but I actually worked on this show. The animation company I worked for took this project on, but our boss didnt tell us that they were Daily Wire until a few episodes in. Right away, the animators and I said that this show is basically Bluey, but didn't complain too much.
    "Now... the characters themselves weren't the issue. This show was hell to work on... We were not given proper assets, or props, and a lot of the BGs had to be manually fixed by the animators. We also were not given walk cycles, hand poses or anything of the sort, we had to do that all by ourselves. (Which was not told to us until problems started to arise). The animators worked overtime, the clients were extremely picky and constantly told us the wrong things, and will change their minds weeks onto the animation process. Everyone on my team hated working on this show, and we only found joy in the strange glitches and rig breaks that happened."
    "Basically... we got the shit end of the stick when working on this show. And I am so glad that it is over. (The show was supposed to come out early spring, but thanks to the clients... tons of things needed to be pushed back)"
  • What Could Have Been: The chinchillas initially had simpler designs. Chinny and Charla lacked accessories and other tertiary sexual characteristics, and the former wore a yellow dress instead of a sweater.
