* NoBudget: The show aimed to be a 3D-animated series that prominently used [[TheTwelvePrinciplesOfAnimation squash-and-stretch]]... on a fairly small TV budget. While the animation itself is very expressive, the rest of the show was clearly constrained by the low budget, with odd-looking models that have visibly low-resolution textures, a small voice cast consisting of only four voice actors for the entire show (resulting in a lot of ActingForTwo), and a lot episodes primarily taking place inside or around the lighthouse to avoid creating new environments.
