Trivia / Curiosity Shop

• The Danza: Pamelyn Ferdin plays Pam.
• Executive Meddling: The decision to have Vincent Price appear in the ninth episode was due to this, as ABC did not approve of the intended guest, Ray Bradbury. Bradbury ultimately wrote the episode instead.
• Missing Episode: As mentioned on the main page, most of the series is believed to have been lost many years ago, and the majority of episodes have no known surviving copies.
• The Other Darrin: The roles of the Wizard and King of Id are provided by Don Messick and Paul Winchell, respectively, after being provided by Jim Henson and Jerry Juhl in their 1969 pilot for a series based off the comic.
• Production Posse: Many members of the staff had previously worked with Jones before, including composer Dean Elliot, animators Phil Roman and Abe Levitow, and voice actors Mel Blanc and June Foray.
• What Could Have Been: A surprising amount, given how short the series ultimately lasted.
  • Original plans indicated that the series was supposed to be seen in the eyes of shop owner Mr. Jones, who is limited to The Voice in the final product.
  • Professor Trivia and Monsieur Coo Coo were originally designed for 'Crawford', another Chuck Jones project, and the former was initially intended to be human.
  • Pamelyn Ferdin was not initially hired for the series due to prior commitments, only appearing because another project she was in was cancelled before its own production began.
  • Gittle was intended to just appear in one episode, according to a contemporary interview with Barbara Minkus.
  • As mentioned above, Ray Bradbury was supposed to guest star in the Halloween Episode, before getting replaced by Vincent Price.
