Nutty/Trivia

==General Trivia==
*Nutty has rabies, as is mentioned in the "Collect Them All" section of the First Blood DVD. This might be seen in his debut episode, as he foams at the mouth when trying to get a candy bar, and in the False Alarm episode, where his mouth is foaming while he is lying on the hospital bed.
*Nutty's personality is similar to that of Hammy the Squirrel from Over the Hedge and Jyushimatsu Matsuno from Mr. Osomatsu.
*After Nutty gets killed in A Sight for Sore Eyes, Russell mistakes his googly eye for his contact lens. After putting it on, Russell sees his kite's ribbons as being made of candy. This is evidence that Nutty may see everything as candy because of his eyes, meaning that his problem is at least partially physical, instead of purely psychological as was previously believed.
*Nutty can be seen in episodes with parts of his candy wardrobe not appearing or falling off.
**In Nuttin' Wrong with Candy, From Hero to Eternity, Chew Said a Mouthful, A Sucker for Love Part 2, and False Alarm, Nutty can be seen without all of his candy.
**In I Get a Trick Out of You, Nutty is missing one of his lollipops and his candy apple.
**In Icy You, Nutty briefly loses his two lollipops.
**In Take a Hike, Nutty is missing both lollipops and his candy cane.
**In All Work and No Play, Nutty's candy cane falls off.
**In Easy Comb, Easy Go, Nutty's candy apple is knocked off his head.
**In his smoochie, he is missing his candy cane the entire time.
*Nutty rides a push scooter in Sweet Ride and a motor scooter in The Carpal Tunnel of Love.
*Nutty is the ninth character to come back to life for another episode after dying, as he died in Nuttin' Wrong with Candy and appeared again in Nuttin' but the Tooth.
*In the False Alarm episode, after Nutty leaves the rehab center, he no longer has his lazy eye, indicating that it is probably a physical condition caused by his high sugar intake.
*According to his official Myspace page, he is apparently 26 years old and a Librahttps://web.archive.org/web/20070517133135/http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=49628390.
*Nutty has heterochromia (two different eye colors), having one black eye and one googly green eye.
*Nutty receives an injury in every episode he stars in, except for Sweet Ride and Going Out With a Bang. Though he does get constipated in the latter episode, he never received any physical injuries like in his other starring roles.
*Nutty is the character who gets the most medical treatments (most of which are caused by his candy addiction):
**In Nuttin' but the Tooth, he is given a dental procedure by Toothy.
**In Concrete Solution, he is about to be taken to hospital after getting his stomach formed into a piece of massive concrete and is treated by Sniffles before that.
**In Chew Said a Mouthful, Lumpy does several treatments for his broken jaw.
**In In a Jam, he takes part in blood donation operated by The Mole.
**In A Sucker for Love, his surficial injuries are sewn, and some are also given band-aids by The Mole.
**In False Alarm, Sniffles somehow manages to keep him alive after he is crushed and impaled by a truckload of candy. Later, he is locked in the asylum's rubber room for several hours.
*Nutty shows his clarity in From Hero to Eternity by almost beating Sniffles at checkers, proving that he is capable of being pretty intelligent.
*Because Nutty is the character known for loving candy, some of his belongings are striped to resemble candy canes, such as his house and bed legs in Chew Said a Mouthful or his surfboard in Wipe Out!.
*In Chew Said a Mouthful, Nutty narrowly escapes from a death he would later endure in The Carpal Tunnel of Love.
*Nutty's dead body has the tendency to continue walking before falling dead as seen in Party Animal, Take a Hike, and Aw, Shucks!.
*If you choose Nutty in the Vision-O-Rama feature in the Third Strike DVD, the movie theater's screen will show a "shaky" Spin Fun Knowin' Ya, a reference to Nutty's jittery nature.
*In Season 5, his alliterate sentence is: Nuttin' wrong with going nuts for nectarously nice candy!
**In fact, he is the only main character whose alliterative sentence was introduced in a Still Alive episode.
*Nutty is one of the few characters to be disliked by both characters of a duo other than Lifty and Shifty, the other duo being Pop and Cub due to his actions in A Sucker for Love Part 1.
*He has interacted with almost every character, except for Mr. Pickels.
*Despite Lifty and Shifty being known for their thefts, Nutty is another character that commits crimes, and much like them, he always gets a comeuppance for his actions (with the exception of the final one listed):
**In Sweet Ride, he stalks and chases down Cuddles, wanting his ice cream.
** In Icy You, he attempts to steal sweets from Lumpy's store before gulping down gallons of unpaid slushies.
**In A Sucker for Love Part 1, he steals Cub's lollipop, damages a gumball machine, and tries to steal a box of chocolates. He also kills Lumpy and is sent to jail in his imagination.
**In Concrete Solution, he steals a bag of sugar from the Happy Tree Café and a bag of cement from a construction site, mistaking it for said bag of sugar.
**In Chew Said a Mouthful he steals a stretcher from a hospital while a patient is still on it.
**In the False Alarm episode, he hijacks Cuddles' car.
***Interestingly, he (technically) stole Lifty and Shifty's magic lamp in As You Wish and a candy cane from their van (intending to steal video games) in the False Alarm episode while Lifty and Shifty only stole his snow cone in Swelter Skelter, this makes Nutty the only character to steal from Lifty and Shifty more often than the other way around.
*His name comes from both his manic personality and the stereotype that squirrels love to eat nuts (which is ironic as Nutty has yet to eat a nut in the series).
*Nutty is one of only two green main characters who is not normally an antagonist, the other one being Cro-Marmot.
*Nutty was the first green character to ever appear in the series.
*It is rumored that Nutty is based on an unspecified crew member's daughter who is also allegedly hyperactive. This is said to be the reason why Nutty has addiction to candy and hyperactivity in the older episodes until the supposed crew member left the show.
==Design==
*Nutty, unlike most characters, does not have Pac-Man-shaped pupils (though his googly eye has one in most episodes).
*Nutty's concept art shows that he was originally supposed to have even more candy on his body and in different places.
*The all-day sucker on his face would be slightly redesigned in Internet season 4. It used to have multiple stripes in different colors, but the stripes were decreased for a simpler appearance.
*There is a slight possibility that the reason Nutty never eats the candy on his body when he is desperate for food (like in Dunce Upon a Time, where he and Giggles are starving) is because he thinks he will be naked, since he wears candy like clothes, as shown in Chew Said a Mouthful.
**The only time he ate his "clothes" is in Nuttin' Wrong with Candy, but this is most likely due to the fact it was his first appearance.
* He may be inspired by Gorgious Klatoo from Space Goofs or Dee Dee from Oggy and the Cockroaches, as all three like to eat lots of food (in Nutty's case, candy) and all three have intentionally harmed others.
*In the False Alarm episode, he wears video game consoles as clothes.
