Go To

  • Denial of Digital Distribution: A Denial of Streaming type occured with this show once it was removed from HBO Max. While the show was available on iTunes, the only thing available to stream from the show was the soundtrack to the series on services like Spotify and Apple Music. Later averted upon the series appearing on Amazon Prime Video's PBS Kids channel in May 2023.
  • Early-Bird Release: The Jonas Brothers episode was released to YouTube on May 21, 2020, which was 6 days before the official launch.
  • Meaningful Release Date: The show coming out the day HBO Max comes out also comes out 2 days after the birthday of Elmo's performer Ryan Dillon.
  • Network to the Rescue: After being removed from HBO Max and taken off Cartoonito, PBS picked it up, and will start airing it in February 2023.
  • Out of Order: The sneak peek episode that was released to YouTube, the episode with the Jonas Brothers, is the second episode produced. The actual first episode, as revealed on launch day, is the episode with Jimmy Fallon and Kacey Musgraves.
  • Screwed by the Network: The Cartoonito block on Cartoon Network treated the show poorly. First, its' premiere was delayed after a last-minute schedule change that wound up axing the weekend edition of Cartoonito. Then, Cocomelon premiered and took half of the show's timeslot, taking over the full half-hour two months later. It also got removed from HBO Max in 2022 following a series of budget cuts.
