Trivia / The Adventures of Timmy the Tooth

Go To

  • Colbert Bump: Most 90s kids probably heard of this series from the preview of it on the VHS of Babe and the first few Land Before Time sequels (and the 1996 VHS of the first movie)
  • Keep Circulating the Tapes: Despite being popular, the series never received a DVD release, possibly because production ended before they were created.
    • The television cuts of the show, which ran for four two-week periods to promote the tapes note , are harder to find than the actual direct to video episodes themselves due to these cuts only airing for a brief period of time.
    • Rescued. In June 2020, Kevin Carlson (co-creator and voice of Timmy) commented on a retrospective video on YouTube made by Colin LooksBack, stating that all ten episodes would be released on the Peacock streaming service. The episodes became available on the service upon launch.
    • MCA Universal made all episodes available on the Internet Archive.
  • Friday Night Death Slot: The first two-week television run of this show ran daily at 6:00AM on most TV stations that got it, a timeslot usually used for kids' programs that networks aren't interested in or are meant for children under five.
  • Referenced by...: The show appears in American Pie 2. The Cavity Goon and some of the Gingivitis Gang were reused for Greg the Bunny. It was also referenced on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
