Fun Facts[]
Trivia[]
- According to some sites, this episode was originally going to be titled "Splat".
- The scene of the goo-covered Earth in "Space Goo" is an edited scene from Movies.
- It is revealed that Mr. Grumpy likes bathing with a rubber duckie.
Remarks[]
- The license plate on Mr. Bump's car reads "mr bmp" possibly in the Comic Sans or Comic Neue typeface.
- Mr. Grumpy wore a towel despite not having visible private parts.
- Despite his rubber duck out from the pipes at the end, Mr. Grumpy still gets green slime from his shower.
- This episodes reveals that Mr. Scatterbrain has human feet. This is somewhat odd, as both Mr. Nervous and Mr. Messy do show their feet in closeups in their colour skin, unlike Mr. Scatterbrain did.
- This also raises the question if the Mr. Men and Little Misses' skin colours are actually their real skin, or just suits as some episodes depicted them with body pockets.
Real-World References[]
- Part of Miss Scary's song Space Goo is based off the Kurtis Blow's "The Breaks".
- This song as a whole is a reference to the sci-fi film The Blob.
Dub edits[]
- In Space Goo, during the chorus, only Mr. Bump, Mr. Noisy, and Little Miss Sunshine say "That's/It's the goo!", but in the US, if one listens carefully, Little Miss Scary's voice can also be heard.
Goofs[]
- The time on Little Miss Chatterbox's clock was supposed to say 3:55, but in the next shot, the time said 8:05.
- Mr. Grumpy was supposed to be standing between 2 characters in the goo, but in the next shot, his standing place has changed.
- The YouTube thumbnail shows a scene from Up & Down.
