## Trivia

* Little Miss Scary had dolls of Mr. Nervous and Mr. Bump in her train set.
* Mr. Scatterbrain's nose came off when Mr. Grumpy was still holding it.
* Little Miss Scary's video on the official Mr. Men Show website was taken from this episode. As a result, it was dubbed in the UK despite being deleted from the broadcast episode.
* Mr. Quiet, Mr. Rude, Mr. Stubborn, Little Miss Calamity and Little Miss Chatterbox are the only characters to not be present in this episode.
* This is the only episode to have two plots featuring the same characters.
* In the original version of the "Hobbies (song)" musical number found on Jared Faber's SoundCloud, Mr. Fussy says "doing it" rather than "doing hobbies". It was most likely changed due to "doing it" being a slang term for sexual intercourse.
