Did you know

• A set of animation cells which sold on eBay in 2017 showed that the opening credits were originally supposed to end with Junior chomping on a portion of the show's title. He then bites into the right side of the screen and stretches it to the left until the entire screen goes black. As it was broadcast, the sequence faded out before any of this occurred.

• In several different shows, there are fleeting glimpses of a character clad in dark sunglasses which bears an uncanny resemblance to Jack Nicholson, who had a small but memorable role in The Little Shop of Horrors (1960).

• Mel Welles, who played Mr. Mushnick in the 1960 film, wanted to reprise his role in the animated series, but due to studio logistics, all of the vocals were recorded in Canada.
