Go To

  • Fridge Brilliance:
    • Why is the host puppet of On the Go a horse? Because throughout history, horses have been associated with the transportation of humans before cars and trucks.
    • Why is the host puppet of Lullaby Time a sheep? Because of the phrase "counting sheep".
  • Nightmare Fuel: Now has its own page!
  • Periphery Demographic: On YouTube, the video series (mainly the first 14 titles from 1997-2004, along with the 2004 versions of the first ten titles) has quite a fandom that primarily consists of older people, many of which grew up with the videos when they were younger.
  • Special Effect Failure: In Baby Newton, during the "Knock Knock, Who's There?" puppet show, the collars for Pavlov and Cow are invisible.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: The original 2002 version of the I Know My Shapes song from Baby Newton sounds awfully similar to Diggin' on James Brown by Tower of Power.
  • Unintentional Period Piece: The video Baby Galileo features Pluto being referred to as one of the planets three years before Pluto was reclassified to a dwarf planet in 2006.
