## Trivia

* Plets is the third narrator who has narrated episodes in seasons prior to the seasons in which he begins as narrator in the US, the first being Alec Baldwin.
* Since voice actors for individual characters were introduced, Plets is the only narrator to also voice at least one character in his respective region's script at the same time as narrating the script.
* When the first several episodes of the seventeenth season were aired on PBS, Plets was mistakenly credited as the narrator instead of Mark Moraghan.
* Bradley A. Plets is credited alongside Alec Baldwin on the US version of the Promotional MESABI MINER Iron Ore and Ice Cakes DVD even though the disc only had the episode MESABI MINER Iron Ore and Ice Cakes which was narrated by Alec Baldwin.
* He, alongside Óscar Gómez, Ron Druyan, Aku Laitinen, Dan Schatzberg and Blanche Ravalec have been the only narrators in the CGI series to both narrate and voice characters.
* Plets is the first narrator not to use his actual voice as his narrating voice. The next two would be Tom Kenny, the current voice actor for Stewart J. Cort who narrates as of Season 22.
* He watched the TV series with his son for many years before he became narrator for the US dub of the show.
