* In the first episode, the Caterpillar is a CloudCuckooLander like the other characters, who doesn't know the difference between "homework" and "housework." In later episodes, while still eccentric, he becomes more of the OnlySaneMan who gives good advice to everyone else.
* In "Red Queen for a Day," the Hatter, Hare, and Tweedles pretend to be sad when the Queen goes on vacation, only to cheer once she's gone, and later, when substitute queen Alice suggests going to visit her subjects, the Rabbit objects that the real Queen never "wastes time" doing that. But the rest of the series shows the Queen [[WhatsUpKingDude spending plenty of time with her subjects]], and even though she can be a RoyalBrat sometimes, they really do love her.

** The Cheshire Cat as well. He usually enjoys avoiding responsibility and messing with people but sometimes his tricks are actually meant to teach an important lesson. In "Those Tusks, Those Eyes," he intervenes at the last minute to give the Walrus his glasses and save him from angering the Queen, and in "Take My Tonsils, Please," he brings the Hatter a ball of yarn as a get-well present.

* RealAfterAll: An odd example. The Walrus's best friend Mr. Pinniped is invisible. In their debut episode, this is treated by the characters as a lie (because walruses are notorious for making up stories), but Mr. Pinniped is very much real. It's confirmed in an episode where someone is tagging Wonderland with graffiti--the culprit turns out to be Mr. Pinniped, who was trying to get more attention from the group.

** The Tweedles. In early episodes, they were interchangeable [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Manchild/ man children]] who mainly showed up to breakdance and rap. As time went on, though, they were shown to run the Wonderland newspaper and often turned up as reporters. They also took on their own individual traits, with Dee as a cool-headed DeadpanSnarker who was fond of teasing his brother and Dum as the cockier, more impulsive of the two. About halfway through the series they started sporting new outfits as well, featuring blue pants, red long-sleeve shirts, and colorful vests instead of the [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Manchild Hammer pants and chains]] from before.
