After WebVideo/RandomEncounters's last major hit, ''WebVideo/FiveNightsAtFreddysTheMusical'', spawned a multi-part main story with original content and spinoffs, the same happened when they adapted ''VideoGame/BaldisBasicsInEducationAndLearning''; the first video garnered over 99 million views, and so the team produced additional content and made it into a series. The ''Baldi's Basics'' series is one of their most popular; it was used for a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aWkr4_IwVw charity campaign]] in 2018, and when RE ran a poll tournament for their most popular video, all three did well and "Baldi's Big Zoo" garnered enough votes to win its first round even when that round's poll went up ''before the video was released''.

* BrickJoke: 1st Prize's desire to hug a moose is brought back twice in ''Big Zoo'' after being a throwaway comment in ''Field Trip''.
* CampingEpisode: ''Field Trip'' has the class go camping.
