  • Acting for Two: Juán Ibáñez voices both Trancas and Petancas, while Damián Mollá voices both Barrancas and C.J., so this ended up happening in the final segment of the seventh season that featured all four ants.
  • Adored by the Network: It's Antena 3's repeated ratings winner.
  • Channel Hop: Moved to Antena 3 in 2011 after five seasons on Cuatro.
  • Long Runner: Started in 2006, and still going strong as of 2023.
  • Milestone Celebration: The 1000th episode was celebrated with a Clip Show of the program's highlights and a musical performance by Carly Rae Jepsen.
    • The 2,000th episode went to London to interview Will Smith at Television Centre, one of the UK's most famous TV studios.
  • Money, Dear Boy: Real life. According to Pablo Motos, he took the format to Antena 3 since they were willing to pay the €90,000 per episode producers 7yAcción were asking for, whilst Cuatro wanted to stay on the previous €75,000.
  • What Could Have Been: Word of God has it that Pablo Motos joined forces with Will Smith to pitch the format to NBC, but they were unsuccessful as other American shows had started including science segments similar to theirs.
