* TookALevelInJerkass: Bunsen undergoes this in the Muppet Labs segment in "The I.T. Factor". Usually, when it comes to Bunsen and Beaker sketches with the latter as a butt monkey, it's usually something relatively harmless or if he's oblivious to the consequences of his actions. Here, in order to demonstrate today's science topic, he knowingly destroys Beaker's possessions and doesn't feel regretful.

* AdaptationalDumbass: The Swedish Chef's culinary skills vary in older productions, but he is generally a competent chef, whose failures were more derived from his odd methods of preparing food, the food itself fighting back, or other comical mishaps. Here, he is barely capable of making anything besides a mess, and can hardly cook simple dishes, such as rice, spaghetti, or even his famous Swedish meatballs.
* AdaptationalJerkass:
** In older Muppet productions, Bunsen's absent-minded attitude prevented him from realizing how much Beaker gets hurt from their inventions, and he is otherwise very kind and reassuring to him. Here, he treats Beaker with more open malice and disregard for his safety.
** The Swedish Chef has a competitive/jealousy streak not seen in earlier appearances, and his general persona is more hostile and bitter (in one episode, he attempts to start a fistfight with the guest), rather than the jolly, friendlier Chef seen in ''Series/TheMuppetShow''.
