Go To

  • Blooper: Often times, the same lip sync is applied to every character in a group, leading to characters' mouths moving without sound, or it looking like Ongo is talking.
  • Children Voicing Children: 9 year old Isabella Blake-Thomas as 6-ish year old Rita.
  • Crossdressing Voices: With the exception of the King, as well as Ongo for his "Oh, mama!" line from "Rita Adopts a Dodo", all the characters are voiced by women.
  • Dawson Casting: Bello, Goomo, and Mina, who are all in the 8-10 range, are voiced by adults.
  • Fake Nationality: Mina, who sounds vaguely German, is voiced by English actress Emma Weaver.
  • Hey, It's That Sound!: In "The Man That Could Be King", the King picking weeds is accompanied by the "ring collect" sound from the Sonic the Hedgehog games.
  • International Coproduction: It's primarily considered a Spanish-British co-production (produced by Spanish companies Vodka Capital and 737 Shaker but made with English-speaking audiences in mind), but also has the Japanese company Bandai and the Portuguese company BIGPICTURE involved.
  • Missing Episode: The original pilot made in 2008 is this, with only some Concept Art and a few screenshots from the animation studio who worked on the pilot remaining.
  • Referenced by...: The SiIvaGunner rip "Star Light Zone (Beta Mix)" features parts of "We Did It!".
    • Another "SiIvaGunner" rip called "Leaf Forest, Act 2 is a Sonic Advance 2 soundfont remix of "Let's Go Together!", the Jelly Jamm main theme, with the Flintstones main theme jingle as an extra piece.
  • Voiced Differently in the Dub: In the Singaporean English dub, Goomo not only has a deeper voice than in the British English dub, but he also lacks his lisp.
  • What Could Have Been: According to the concept art, pilot and production bible of the show...
    • The characters were a lot furrier.
    • Everyone was barefoot and none of the boys wore pants.
    • Bello had shorter hair and wore a black-and-white striped t-shirt. Later concept art had him look similar to his final design, with him now sporting a shirt with the letter B on it.
    • Goomo's original design had a very oddly-shaped head and omitted his helmet. He also wore a blue Hawaiian shirt and white undershirt.
    • Ongo was a tall, Bigfoot-esque behemoth who wore a top hat.
    • While King looks similar to his final design (with the only major difference being his mustache, eyebrows, and suit being black in colour), Queen looks completely different, with her having a similar shape to King and her being black in color. The final design has her lavender in colour instead, likely to avoid comparisons to blackface.
    • Jammbo originally had a series of caves some of the action would have took place in, as well as a Maze the kids had to go through.
    • There was an additional character named Maggottune. He was a green worm-like creature who was intended to be the go-to for the kids if they needed advice.
